Palo focuses on the Congo complex of AfroCuban folkloric dances rooted in West African dance and then in Cuba after the trans-Atlantic slave trade. A powerful and warrior-centric dance, Palo has many pelvic and torso movements to evoke the spirits of Palo Mayombe through intense bata drumming rhythms, with many steps often incorporated into Salsa. Come explore the roots of Salsa!
Pre-requisites: Moderate fitness level.
