Why this class is different at Latin Rhythms:

Latin Rhythms focuses on bringing out the fun of this popular dance. For many students, this is the first dance they learn or have a general understanding of the rhythm coming in. Our focus on maintaining timing with their basic step as well as the appropriate hand tension in partner work aids in our students development and often times provide a good foundation for other dances taught at our studio.
