The Moko Jumbie's Cultural and Spiritual Significance in the Caribbean
Michael Lee Poy, founder of Moko Jumbie Mas Camp, shares the African roots of Moko Jumbie, its spiritual significance during life transitions, and cultural significance in the Caribbean.
He's hosted Moko Jumbie workshops across North America and Trinidad, empowering participants, especially children, to connect deeper with their culture through practicing the Moko Jumbie art form—from learning how to walk on stilts, to costume making. As a post-secondary instructor, he also shares his plans to integrate Moko Jumbie into academic curriculums.
