Tune in to the rhythms of the Latin coast and gain a fuller appreciation for the history and culture of the region, by taking dance lessons in Cartagena.
Here are our top5 reasons to take dance lessons in Cartagena:
1. Colombians love to dance. If you are lacking the confidence to get up on the dancefloor, you'll be sitting alone on the sidelines most of the time - missing out on the fun!
2. It's a great way to meet people. Locals will often stick to their own groups.. EXCEPT to ask someone to dance..
3. Music and dance is inextricably interwoven into the life, culture and history of the people of Cartagena - from cumbia that mirrors the dance of the shackled-ankles of African slaves through to the accordion-accompanied Vallenato and the now international salsa. It's the most fun history lesson around!
4. It makes a great souvenir! Remember the magic of dancing in the city's well-worn dancefloors everytime you shuffle around your kitchen to a salsa song.
5. It's amazing exercise! Dancing tones your body and burns calories. Which is important when the majority of food here, comes fried or saturated in sugar!
We work with the fantastic Crazy Salsa Dance school, together with private tutors. Although salsa lessons are most popular.. you can also explore lessons in Champeta, Vallenato, Merengue, Porro, Cumbia, Mapele, Bachata and Reggaeton.
