WORKSHOP - Contra Body Movement
with Caryl Cuizon

Latin dances are rooted in the streets... everyday people enjoying the freedom of moving their bodies to music. When you allow your body to move naturally, it can be raw, graceful, elegant or strong.  Contra Body Movement focuses on coordinating your upper and lower body in opposing directions to give a more organic, natural look and feel to the most fundamental movements. When you have controlled, natural looking basics, you don’t need complex over-styled movements. This workshop is an essential foundation for all elements of salsa, bachata or cha cha dancing, whether in partner work, footwork or styling.

This workshop will help you “sync” your upper and lower body to create movement that look natural and feels amazing!  This first layer of coordinated movements provides an essential base for more intricate movement.

**Beginner/Intermediate salsa, bachata or cha cha required.
