🌴 A Night of Cuban Rhythm, Dance & Connection
This October, we’re bringing the spirit of Cuba back to Leicester with another special evening dedicated to Cuban Salsa and the roots of Cuban dance.
We’re delighted to welcome Cuban guest teacher Yainier Carbonel, who will be teaching a special Rumba class.
Rumba is one of the deepest roots of Cuban dance and an important part of Cuban culture. This class is a great opportunity to discover its rhythm, movement and energy while learning from our Cuban guest teacher.
Whether you’re new to Cuban dance or already have experience, come and enjoy this unique Cuban style in a fun and welcoming environment.
After the class, it’s time to put your moves into practice as DJ Canet takes over the music with an exciting selection of Cuban Salsa, Bachata and Latin favourites.
Expect a lively dance floor, Rueda de Casino, fun line-up dances and a friendly atmosphere where everyone is welcome.
Come along, bring your energy and spend the evening dancing to the rhythms of Cuba! 💃🕺
