We are excited to be organizing a Rueda Flash Mob to be performed at San Francisco’s Carnaval Festival on Sunday, May 24th. There will be two ways to participate:
Dancers currently taking Level 4 in RCR’s classes can attend this three-week long performance workshop to perfect and add style to all calls from Levels 1, 2, & 3 from our curriculum, organized into a choreography
Dancers currently taking Levels 2 and up can participate without attending the performance workshop, provided they know all the calls from Level 1 of our curriculum. These dancers will join the performance for the second song, after the choreography (learned by the dancers in the first group above).
In the workshop you will apply and develop your knowledge of partnering technique, turn patterns, rhythm, and body-movement, taking your salsa skills to the performance level.
We will meet 3 Sundays: May 3rd, 10th, and 17th. Each session is offered on a sliding scale ($20 to $40 for each two-hour session).
Participation in the performance workshop will require individual and/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 the next week.
We will take videos after each session — please wear a black shirt (leaders) or red shirt (followers) so that we can look unified for the videos after each session. Bring both colors if you are able to lead and follow.
Participation in the workshop does NOT guarantee a spot in the performance. In the final sessions of the workshop if we assess that you have not learned the choreography in the correct sequence, with the correct timing, and with the correct style you will not be able to participate in the performance. We will also do our best to find an even number of leaders and followers but if there is an imbalance some dancers may not be able to participate in the performance — in this case we will include the dancers who have best mastered the choreography.
If you have questions about your level or other aspects of the workshop please contact us.
