스페인어 몰입 라틴 댄스 - 살사, 바차타, 메렝게

*No classes April 20-May 27*

Get moving with this class where you will be exposed to different kinds of music from Spanish speaking countries and learn basic solo steps. 

IMPORTANT *You do not need any previous dance knowledge or experience. However, this class is taught in Spanish and learners are expected to be able to follow instructions, and interact in class in Spanish. This is a great opportunity for Heritage Speakers to join and connect with other Spanish speakers, as well as for Spanish language learners who are eager to use the language and have a good level of fluency and would like to practice more Spanish by doing something else they enjoy: Dancing!!!!*

In this class, we will solo dance to Bachata, Merengue, Salsa, Cumbia Colombiana, and other dances that will get you moving as well. 

At the beginning of the class we will have a warm up which will get us moving and stretching, You will notice that the warm up is usually the same dance we explored the last class (Not the case if it is the first class of the session)
Then, it is dancing time! We will work on one main dance each week, basic steps, body movement, and free styling. Then we will have our cool down and final stretch time which will lead to a quick sharing time for students to talk about the experience of the day.  
At the end of the session sometimes  and if time allows, there is questions and comments time where we get to ask questions about the dances, the outfits, the instruments, anything related to the dance of the week or even clarify steps that may need some extra work.

Every week we have a main dance which will be explained and practice that day. After 4 weeks the cycle starts again unless we have a special or extra dance like Vallenato, Mapalé, or other dance that will be announce in the Classroom wall. 

IMPORTANT: Dancers should have a bottle of water handy, wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing, and be in a space where they can show their moves! Supervision is always encouraged in case dancers need a reminder to get back on track or if they face any  technology issue that might arise.
This class is taught in Spanish.
