This workshop is taught regularly on a MONTHLY BASIS, on one of Tuesdays towards the end of the month. Please consult Schedule section of this website to learn the planning for the next occurrence!
MEN & WOMEN at a minimum INTERMEDIATE level of mambo and/or cha-cha cha dancing. During footwork workshop we dance solo, therefore a DANCE PARTNER is NOT REQUIRED.
We practice various footwork patterns with styling elements (from Latin boogaloo, jazz, Afro-Caribbean dances) and syncopated rhythmic patterns, very common for NY style dancing.
In the programme:
• various FOOTWORK PATTERNS (cha-cha-cha shines),
• RHYTHMICITY & MUSICALITY,
• dancing in the faster TEMPO to increase overall capabilities,
• BODY MOVEMENT elements & "EFFECTS",
• ability to INVENT your own footwork "on-the-go", aligned to the music that you hear.
Wear comfortable clothes (i.e. jeans + T-shirt) and preferably dance shoes (jazz shoes, Latin dance shoes, dance sneakers etc.)
