UPDATE (10/12): We have had so much interest in the performance workshop that we will be splitting into two separate groups (one for Level 3 and one for Level 4).

In this 9-week workshop you’ll learn a Cuban Salsa & Rueda de Casino choreography with your fellow students to perform at RCR’s 15th Anniversary Gala on Saturday, December 3rd.

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. Each week you will learn a section of an original choreography that combines classic Cuban Salsa and Rueda moves with original moves that we develop specifically for this piece. The workshop is for dancers who are currently taking Levels 3 or 4 in our regular drop-in classes, i.e. have completely mastered Levels 1 and 2 (and Level 3 for L4 dancers) from our curriculum.

We will meet every Sunday from October 9th to November 27th. Level 3 will meet from 1:15 to 3:15pm and Level 4 will meet from 3:30 to 5:30pm. We will also be meeting on two Thursdays from 7 to 9pm — November 17th and December 1st. Each session is offered on a sliding scale ($20 to $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.

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

These workshops, and all RCR classes, are offered on a sliding scale. When you check out, you can enter either 25OFF or 50OFF as codes to receive 25% or 50% discounts.
