Intro to Afro-Cuban Rumba

This is a 3-part series focusing on the foundation of Afro-Cuban Rumba, a polyrhythmic dance that originated in the ports of Cuba. We'll focus on 3 areas: footwork, musicality and body movement. This class will be on 3 Tuesdays (4/28, 5/5, and 5/12) from 7:00-7:45 p.m. I'll break everything down into smaller segments so you can really understand how to integrate the various movements. We will focus on 2 of 3 main styles of Rumba--yambú and guaguancó.

Session 1: Rumba Footwork and Musicality

Session 2: Body Movement Integration

Session 3: Rumba Sequences
