A rhythmic endeavor around the world, salsa borrows a little from all and gives back to all. Get ready for a fun and educational dance journey throughout Latin America. TR

From Cuba, to Puerto Rico, to Panama, to New York, Salsa borrows a little from all and gives back to all. Touching on historical and cultural contexts, as well as rhythmic improvisations and set movement patterns, we will explore what Clave is, move to it, understand it, and incorporate it in our worlds. Karlies Kelley Vedula, a Panamanian native, BFA and MFA African Diaspora Dance Alumna, and director of Panadanza Dance Company will have you moving and grooving from deep within. Salsa welcomes all cultures, economic backgrounds, and dance vocabularies. It is a dance of the people, for the people.

TR = Ticket registration. Limit: 120. Free tickets distributed 30 minutes before the program on a first-come, first-served basis at the Youth Services Desk.
