SUMMER ADULTS: Heatwave: Latin Rhythms Summer Session

Course Description:     
Feel the beat and bring the heat in this special four-week summer session of Latin Rhythms! This beginner-friendly fusion dance class blends Latin and African-inspired movement—from merengue to salsa and beyond—to get your body moving and your spirit lifted. Each class features fun, easy-to-follow choreography, rhythmic footwork and gentle stretching, all set to infectious music from Cuba to Africa. No dance experience? No problem! All ages and levels are welcome to join this vibrant community-based class as we spread the joyful energy of summer through dance.

Class notes:
Please wear comfortable clothing in which to move. As this movement style relies on a lot of footwork, women and men's Latin dance shoes, Fuego dance sneakers or dance shoe covers are strongly recommended. While not required, feel free to also bring a yoga mat for extra cushioning for stretching at the end of class. Please also remember to bring water, as we will work up quite a sweat during class.
