Age: All This high energy class explores traditional dance from Peru. This class incorporates basic stretches and strengthening within an improvisational warm-up set to Afro Peruvian. Students will also work on refining rhythm, dance and musicality through listening activities and the use of cajones and other instruments and props. Dancers in this class will improve flexibility and coordination through fun, age-appropriate movement, and exercises. Class is occasionally accompanied by live musicians to help students understand the communication between the drums and the dance. Please come and enjoy the dance and music!
