📆 On Monday, September 1st, come join us for a very special workshop in Cuban Modern technique taught by guest instructors Anara Frank and Javier Jeffer of Metamovements!
💃🏼🕺🏽 Javier is visiting from Havana, Cuba and residing in Boston, where he and Anara have performed, trained, and taught extensively, most recently at the Boston Salsa Festival.
Javier specializes in performing and teaching Afro-Cuban folkloric, traditional and modern music and dance genres, as well as Cuban modern, ballet, and improvisation techniques. His passion is creating unique fusions that honor the roots, celebrate creativity and connect deeply to the music, rhythms and spirituality.
Anara founded MetaMovements in 2006 and has led dance exchanges in the US, Cuba, and the Dominican Republic and has trained thousands of students and instructors across a variety of genres, including Latin Dances from New York, LA, Cuba & the DR, as well as Modern Dance, Acrobatics, Gymnastics, and more.
🪘 Cuban Modern technique (90 minutes): Cuban Modern technique is a beautiful dance form combining traditional Afro-Cuban traditions with contemporary movements. The training will help with your overall dance technique, develop body awareness, and ground you in fundamentals of the dance. Please be sure to wear comfortable and flexible attire.
