Afro-Cuban Dance Workshop with Anailys
Feel the root. Honor the rhythm. Connect with your body.
We are thrilled to welcome Anailys Yera Pérez to Seattle to teach Afro-Cuban Dance Workshops. Anailys is an international dancer and teacher celebrated for her powerful interpretation of Afro-Cuban rhythms.
This Afro-Cuban workshop is designed to immerse you in the energy, meaning, and expressive power of Afro-Cuban dance. You’ll learn essential movements rooted in Yoruba, Congo, Arará, and other cultural traditions — exploring their spiritual and historical context through movement.
✦ In this workshop, you will:
- Connect with traditional rhythms and chants from Afro-Cuban culture
- Learn signature movements inspired by different orishas (deities of the Afro-Cuban pantheon)
- Work on technique, isolation, strength, and flow
- Develop deeper body awareness and artistic expression
- Engage in guided improvisation, energy work, and Afro-Cuban musicality
** Open to all levels — no previous experience in Afro dance required, just curiosity, respect, and a willingness to learn.
✦ Date: June 14, 2025
✦ Time: Saturday 1:00pm-3:00pm (120min)
✦ Pricing: $50 Early-Bird (End June 1) | $60 Door; NO Class-Pass
