What you'll find here, and why we started writing

April 21, 2026 · Chi

We teach dance because we love the conversation it opens up — between people, between traditions, between music and body. This space is for the conversations that don't quite fit inside a one-hour class.

You'll find:

  • Cultural background, like A Short History of Salsa, for dancers who want to understand where the music comes from.
  • Technique notes: small, focused write-ups on things like how to find the one, how to lead a cross-body without muscling, or why Afrobeats steps sit in the knees and hips instead of the shoulders.
  • Class announcements and reflections after big events, workshops, or tours.

If there's something you'd like us to write about, tell us at a class or through the contact form. Dance is, after all, a conversation.
