LOOKING FOR AN INTENSIVE DANCE TRAINING EXPERIENCE?
If you're seeking to experience intensive training opportunities... we're please to offer you this 7 day / 6 night training program (Jul 29-Aug 4). This opportunity is perfect for those who want an to experience intensive training with dancers & musicians on the island, allowing you to advance in your skills quickly! The best part: this is not just for professionals … individuals of any level are welcome to join in as well. ​​
In addition to these exciting genres... you'll get a chance to dive into Cuban Contemporary: A codified technique that fuses Graham with Afro-Cuban movement and footwork. For most Cuban dancers of any genre, this technique is the foundation of the training: helping them increase stamina & strength while drastically improving their body movement & physical awareness! No "Cuban Dance Experience" would be complete without training in this genre
Each morning you'll train intensively and then join together with your fellow Rhythmology travelers for some of their afternoon and evening activities.
