For everyone who could use a little more focused practice, training fundamentals, and working through movements, calls, and concepts at a more deliberate pace (that means most of us 😄), mark your calendars for next Thursday, April 16th. At 6pm, we’ll be having a beginner-friendly suelta class, followed by a 7pm beginner-friendly rueda class. Eric & Makiko will be teaching the class and sharing their knowledge, helping walk (and dance) you through everything you need to know :)
Practicing over the solo section of @manuelvalerajazz “Chamber Timba” after ballet finished at Gibney.
We’ll be playing this one at maestro @ggreenhilldrums recital this Friday at 4:30.

Whatta beautiful gift to close out 2025!
The great John Benitez came through to jam live on Con Sabor Latino with a group of talented cats including our very own Angel Rubén ”Rumba” Rodríguez.
A very special thanks to Loisaida Center @loisaidainc.center for welcoming Con Sabor Latino for the weekly Sunday broadcast and prepping this great studio for live performances. Stay tuned for more on-air jam sessions in 2026!
