African Dance
The connection between African dance and Afro-Cuban dance is rooted in historical and cultural exchanges between Africans and Americans, particularly during the Transatlantic Slave Trade. African slaves brought their dance and musical traditions to the Caribbean, including Cuba, where they intermingled with local influences, giving rise to Afro-Cuban dances. Improve your Salsa and Son shines by exploring Afro-Cuban dances including Rumba, Guaguanco, Yoruba, Orishas, and Palo.
