hi!
cuban-style salsa (also known as "casino") can be danced in partners or in a rueda (known as "rueda de casino"). i know not very many people in boston have seen cuban-style as danced in partners but i'm hoping to bring it to life here! it is an amazingly dynamic dance and lots of fun to boot. we'll definitely have some ruedas going on at ryles.
i hope you all can join us this friday. timba is a passion of mine, and i would love to see it have a home in beantown.
please feel free to email me with any questions!
