Iโve been spending my free time learning salsa since 2018. Not only does it remind me of my abuela๐ฅน๐ต๐ท, but the practice of learning movement has been so freeing, grounding, joyful, and deeply connecting.
No matter what else is going on, I always find my way back to salsa ๐๐ป
Exploring a styling class was new for me, and it was unreal to meet so many beautiful women who also dedicate their time to dance as a space for healing and rebirth ๐ฅน๐ซถ๐ป โ and to attend the Chicago Salsa Congress.
I look forward to a lifetime of learning, and to the day where I can respond to the music naturally and beautifully โ like the dancers I admire most ๐ซถ๐ปโจ๐๐ป๐บ @blancaviles@latinrhythmschi

๐ ๐ต๐ท25th Anniversary Gala of the National Museum of Puerto Rican Arts & Culture a few weeks ago. Earlier this year, while in PR, I promised myself Iโd connect more deeply with my culture - hear from so many Puerto Rican leaders, was surreal ๐ฅน & inspiring. I left feeling proud, emotional, and even more connected.
+ Got to see Liza Colรณn-Zayas (The Bear) and Ramรณn Rodrรญguez receive Ceiba Awards ๐ต๐ทโจ + theyโre both also from NYC! ๐๐ซถ๐ป
