Rueda Classes
Step into the circle and experience the magic of Rueda de Casino, a lively and communal style of Cuban Salsa that brings people together in a unique and exhilarating way. Rueda de Casino is not just a dance class; it's a social event where everyone is part of a bigger picture, dancing with not one partner but with everyone, creating a spectacular display of synchronized dancing. Whether you're new to dancing or looking to spice up your salsa skills, our Rueda classes are the perfect way to dive into the fun!
​
Rueda de Casino is all about connection and teamwork. In our classes, you'll join other dancers to form a large circle, with a caller announcing the moves. You'll learn to switch partners, execute turn patterns, and perform fancy footwork—all in sync with the group and with the music. This style of dance is perfect for those who love the idea of combining learning with social interaction. You'll never feel alone on the dance floor as you're always part of the circle, part of the community.
The social benefits of joining our Rueda classes are the best part! Not only will you learn a fantastic and fun dance style, but you'll also meet new people who share your enthusiasm for dancing. Our classes are a wonderful place to make friends and build connections in a relaxed and supportive environment. Plus, it’s a great way to unwind after a long day and add a splash of fun to your weekly routine.
​
Imagine being the life of any dance party! With Rueda de Casino skills up your sleeve, you'll be able to join any circle and instantly synchronize with dancers at social events, parties, and gatherings. A good rueda looks just like a rehearsed routine, but actually it's all improvised freestyle! It's about making each dance moment enjoyable and sharing that joy with others.
​
So, what are you waiting for? Come join our Rueda de Casino classes and spin into a world of fun, friendship, and dance. Whether you’re looking to boost your social life, pick up a new hobby, or just want to move to some great music, Rueda de Casino offers something for everyone. Let’s dance the circle together and make every spin count!
