Cerebrando La Rueda (Level 5)

Rueda con Ritmo's Or Gadish is starting a new recurring 2-hour L5 advanced workshop called Cerebrando La Rueda, to develop a group of advanced dancers that can dance in various Rueda structures and concepts, such as Rueda Llanta, Mixta, Torno, and Eco/Cruzada.

In order to allow us to move swiftly through these topics, these workshops are for those that have completed and are comfortable with the RCR L4 curriculum or equivalent. This is for you if:
- You have good and confident dance technique
- You are experienced in leading or following (no switching required)
- You are a fast learner and need few repetitions when learning new moves and patterns
- You can keep the flow of a constantly moving Rueda, even without basic steps in between.
- You can perform all the moves in the RCR L1-L3 curriculum without a partner (e.g. with a ghost) and without seeing others (e.g. in Rueda Pafuera). This will be explicitly tested when joining for the first time.

If you are not yet at the right level, fret not! This is not your only opportunity to learn these topics. Or will continue to teach them at separate workshops designed for a broader audience where we can take more time with each new idea.

The next meetings are:
* Wed, Apr 15, 7-9p at Mission Neighborhood Centers, SF
* Wed, Apr 22, 7-9p at Lake Merritt Dance, Oakland:
* Tues, May 12, 7-9p at Mission Neighborhood Centers, SF

We look forward to building out a group of advanced dancers that can take on these interesting, but complex topics!
