RITMO 3-YEAR ANNIVERSARY

MamboLab is coming to Ritmo 
and opportunities like this don’t come around often.

Saturday, October 3, 2026
Move With Grace Ballroom

Three years of dance, performances, classes, friendship, connection, family, and community.

What started as a social has grown into something much bigger — a place where dancers from across the Triangle and beyond come together to learn, connect, celebrate, and share the dance floor.

For our 3-Year Anniversary, we’re creating a full Ritmo experience with workshops, performances, social dancing, food, and special guest artists Elian & Ashley-MamboLab.

The artists behind MamboLab, with ties to Empire Mambo NYC.
