TimeThe course will equip you with key basic figures to dance salsa cubana. We will start with the basics to eventually connect them one by one to a small choreography. Get a taste of the unique elegance and grace of salsa. Agua!
Salsa Cubana has it all: singing melodies, moving rhythms, and a rich history and culture reflected in the yarning lyrics. With some exercising you will learn playful, spinning, and complex knotted figures. These mastered, enjoy the Cuban way of dancing as a couple or show off with your friends in a neatly synchronized Rueda de Casino. And that isn’t it, Salsa Cubana prepares you for numerous other Latin American dances like Son Cubano, Merengue, Bolero, and many more!
¡Ven a bailar!
