In these 7-week-long workshops you’ll learn a Cuban Salsa & Rueda de Casino choreography with your fellow students to perform at RCR’s Holiday Gala on Saturday, December 2nd.

We will be offering TWO SEPARATE LEVELS every Sunday beginning 10/22:

1:30 - 3:30pm Level 3 Performance Workshop (must already know ALL Level 2 moves)

4:00 - 6:00pm Level 4 Performance Workshop (must already know ALL Level 3 moves)

In the workshops you will apply and develop your knowledge of partnering technique, turn patterns, rhythm, and body-movement, taking your salsa skills to the performance level. Each week you will learn a section of an original choreography that includes the moves at that Level from our curriculum. On the first session of the workshop we will verify that participants already know all moves from the previous levels — we recommend everyone who is considering participating attend the Level 3 workshop unless you have been given specific approval from us to take the Level 4 workshop (please contact us if you have a question about your level). If you do not yet know the moves from Levels 1 and 2 we will still be offering our weekly drop-in classes at those levels on Sundays.

Both workshops will meet every Sunday from October 22nd to November 26th. We will also be meeting for a final rehearsal the week before the performance (exact date and time TBD). Each session is offered on a sliding scale ($20, $30, or $40 for each two-hour session). We will allow drop-ins for the first few weeks of the workshop but after that we will require dancers to register for the full workshop. Participants will also need to purchase their own costume.

Participation in the performance workshop will require individual or small group review outside of the weekly meeting times — we expect that the material taught one week will have been practiced and internalized to the best of your ability so that we can continue with new material each week. We will take videos during each session and share them with the participants privately so that you can review during the week. Missing a session or two is acceptable but we expect each student to review the missed material using video and arrive at the next class prepared. Participation in the performance is not guaranteed through attending the classes — students must also take personal responsibility to ensure they can successfully execute the choreography (including with the correct timing with the music) to participate in the performance.

If you have questions about your level or other aspects of the workshop please contact us.
