Ever been at a salsa party, vibing with your partner, and suddenly… boom, the music changes. A little rumba intro sneaks in, or you hear that 2x3 Guaguancó clave and you're like… wait, what just happened?
You're not the only one.
But here’s the real question:
Do you feel what the music is asking from you in that moment?
Or do you just keep doing turn patterns like nothing’s changed?
Let us tell you something.
In Timba (Cuba’s modern salsa) Rumba is the heartbeat. That clave you’re hearing? It’s not just there for decoration... It’s a chance to connect deeper with the music and with your dance.
And the good news?
You don’t have to guess anymore.
You can learn how to recognise those shifts, how to move with them, how to actually enjoy them.
If that’s what you want: confidence, connection, musicality, and flow, then this training is for you.

Sunday, July 27
