This is arguably the most popular Latin rhythm. It received its name in the late 1960s, and it was then that it began to be recognized as a musical genre. It’s a lively, dynamic rhythm that’s very present in Colombia’s cultural scene.
We teach: Colombian, on 1, on 2, Cuban, and Cali
Originating in the Dominican Republic and strongly influenced by genres such as bolero, Cuban son, and even merengue, bachata is gaining increasing popularity around the world.
We teach: sensual, modern, and traditional.
This is a genre originating in our country, and although it was initially exclusively a folk courtship dance, over time it has become a social dance for couples with great popularity throughout the Americas. It was here in Medellín that dancers borrowed movements from other rhythms like Tango and Salsa to create the dance we know today. Currently, a strong “porrera” culture continues to thrive in our city.
This musical genre originating in the Dominican Republic is one of the most popular in Latin America, not only for its lively and contagious rhythm but also because its dance is considered by many to be one of the easiest. It has become a staple at Latin parties. Furthermore, the hip movement in this style is similar to other dances, making it a great choice if you’re new to dance.
“A sad thought that is danced.” Tango is a genre steeped in history and tradition. It originated on the banks of the Río de la Plata to recount the experiences of Buenos Aires residents and European migrants, drawing influence from a multitude of genres and sounds. It reached its peak in the 1940s, when it began to spread throughout the world, presenting itself as an elegant and sensual dance.
As its name suggests, it’s a dance full of sensuality. It can be performed by men and women alike, as well as with different musical genres. Ultimately, what matters most is the confidence and fluidity of the movements you can achieve.
You may be wondering if you can dance in heels, and the answer is yes, of course you can! We can also teach you heel technique for other styles.
Urban dance isn’t really a genre, but rather a way of grouping several genres together. Our classes feature a large percentage of reggaeton, but you’ll also learn to dance champeta, a bit of twerk, dancehall, and jazz funk. It’s not (although it can be) a couple’s dance.
You may know it as belly dancing, due to its Western name (bellydancing). However, oriental dance, originating from the Middle East and North Africa, is performed with the entire body. A dance full of fluidity, coordination, and dissociation.
They can be individual or couples.
