Join us and explore the possibilities of your body and learn how to communicate with others through dance, rhythm and flavor! This class is taught as “leaders” and “followers” and prioritizes creating a safe and inclusive space for everyone. All are welcome, and no partner is required! Let’s foster a supportive environment where we can learn, grow, and move together!

Classes are taught by Venezuelan dance instructor Juliana Mendonca (she/her). Juliana’s teaching style is not a traditional ballroom style latin dance class. She first teaches her students to connect to their body and to the rhythms before getting to the steps and turns. This foundation will help you loosen up your hips, knees, shoulders and arms to allow you to get your own authentic feel for each genre and its unique rhythm. This is a very fun and welcoming class, we encourage you to take it!
