Embody your art, embody your dreams

“When you radiate the energy you want in your life; your crew will come to you”.
- Jesse du Toit, member of the Eoan Crew
The Eoan Group was founded in District Six in 1933 by Helen Southern-Holt as South Africa’s first grassroots opera, dance and theatre company. By 1980, it had grown to having 15 branches located throughout the Cape Peninsula. Today, under the Directorship of Shafiek Rajap, the Eoan Group offers training in classical ballet, modern dance, African contemporary, hip hop, belly dance, the dramatic arts and music to all aspiring performers from the ages of three and older.
2021 marks Eoan Crew’s 88th year of keeping kids inspired and off the street through teaching dance, movement, drama, music, gym and providing aftercare services.
