DANCE4Water styles

We teach three very different and exciting dances – Cuban salsa, Bachata, and Kizomba. Be assured that our teachers will explain you the fundamentals of the rythm, moves, steps and musicality!

CUBAN SALSA

Cuban salsa is a fun and sociable partner dance. It can be danced either in a couple or in a ’rueda de casino’, a large circle with multiple couples. LA salsa is a fun, flashy and fast paced couple’s dance with lots of spinning and cool tricks. It is danced in a line with dance partners switching places continuously.

We also often organize workshops to introduce to our students other dance styles – LA salsa, Afro beat, Cuban son, Rumba,Afro Cuban, Reggaeton…

BACHATA

Bachata is a sensual partner dance from the Dominican Republic. The basics are simple whilst intricate footwork and smooth turns give the dance flavour.

KIZOMBA

Kizomba is a mix between Argentinian tango and Angolese culture.

At first seen as a party dance, it evolved into more modern styles, such as urban and modern. Come and try its unique mood !
