The AfroCuban dances of the Orishas are part of the African legacy in Cuba.   Through the process of transculturation the Yoruba religion and culture played an important role in shaping  AfroCuban religions, art, music, and dances that are prevalent in modern day Cuban society. 

These dances are an integral part of the curriculum in professional dance schools.   Learning the technique used to prepare dancers for them and studying the dances themselves will help advance your skills whether your interest is religious, professional performance, personal development, or to enrich other forms of dance.

With the standard program, we will meet you at the airport, get you set up with a local mobile phone, help you change money, and get you checked in and set up for your stay.  You’ll start training the first day and then later that night meet your instructor or host at one of the main concert venues to soak in the sounds and rhythms of Cuba. 

Training days include 3-6 hours of training and time held for individual activities providing you with a full schedule of 6-8 hours a day that allows you plenty of time to experience Cuba and its culture.

We offer programs as Basic, Standard, or Classic.  Standard is what we recommend to most people.  It allows you to travel with confidence knowing you have support, connects you with local hosts, includes a standard travel package and certificate of legal travel to Cuba.   Classic is for those who want to add more and plan less.   Basic includes the program only with no travel support, certification, or travel package.  It is reserved for experienced Cuba travelers.
