By the end of this course you will be able to:

  • Identify the Habanera rhythm in the music, dance it solo and with a partner
  • Identify the Rumba rhythm in the music, dance it solo in a number of different ways, and add these variations to your partner dancing
  • Identify the Cinquillo rhythm in the music, dance it solo and add specific body shaping to your steps. You will then be able to apply this to your partner dancing.
  • Identify the Son Clave rhythm in the music, dance it solo and with a partner.
