RUEDA (aka Rueda de Casino) is a way of dancing where partners form a circle and perform
steps or routines that are called by a leader. Dancing in a Rueda is an incredibly fun experience that anyone can
learn to do. In the learning process, not only will you add the Rueda element to your dance, but you will also see
your partnering salsa skills improve. Authenticity, ease of movement, and enjoyment are all aspects of the dance
you will watch grow in front of your very eyes.
We offer various levels of this
workshop starting with the very
basics of the dance including
Guapea (the basic step), forming the Rueda,
synchronization among partners, methods
for calling steps, partner transition,
along with basic moves.
In subsequent levels, you will
learn increasingly complex moves,
steps, patterns, and combinations.
Some examples include Enchufe,
Dame Dos, Sombrero,
Havana, Dedo Saboriado,
and many many more. Throughout
all levels of this workshop series,
we will emphasize and teach the same
techniques and elements taught in
our Street
Salsa classes. Our goal is
to give you a vast array of Rueda
skills while teaching you to dance
like they do in Latin countries,
like they do on the street.
