Yoruba culture is a unique blend of art, music, history, and traditions. As one of Africa's oldest languages, spoken by over 40 million people worldwide, Yoruba offers a unique window into the diverse practices of its speakers — from the colorful festival of Ojude Oba to the sacred rhythms of bàtá drums.

Learning Yoruba isn't just about acquiring language skills; it's about embracing a vibrant culture that spans continents and centuries. Whether you're connecting with your heritage or discovering a new cultural landscape, our courses are designed to immerse you fully in the Yoruba experience.

Native tutors who greet you with "Kaabo" (Welcome), focus on your individual goals — whether starting with simple phrases like "Bawo ni?" (How are you?) or engaging in in-depth cultural conversations and traditional narratives.
Join online group sessions, reenact traditional dialogues, celebrate virtual festivals like Ojude Oba, and even learn to cook classic Yoruba dishes under tutor guidance. Experience the culture in every lesson.
