### **Casino II (A) 💃🕺** **🕠 5:30–6:30 PM** **📍 SaloNeo (Hagenauerstr. 11)** **🌤️ When the weather is good (warm enough, no rain), we will dance outdoors:** **👉 [https://maps.app.goo.gl/dey5G3RmseJAXnP4A](https://maps.app.goo.gl/dey5G3RmseJAXnP4A)** **[acEw0w](https://book.stripe.com/4gMaEQ9Lwa3V0ZP91acEw0w)** **In this course, we will build on and review the topics from your Salsa Beginner classes.** **You should have already participated in one of our beginner courses or another basic Salsa Cubana (Casino) course.** **We will start exploring more complex movements and figures, while staying true to our philosophy:** **It’s not the number of figures that makes you a “good dancer” — it’s your communication with your partner and with the music.** **That’s exactly how this course is structured. 💛** **Contact us, if you want to join! 😊** **📧 info@puntocubanoberlin.com** **📞 +49 155 100 966 28** 💛 What to Expect from a Free Trial Class If you choose to join a free trial class, please note that you will be joining an ongoing course. The purpose of the trial class is twofold: it gives you the opportunity to get an impression of us as teachers, our teaching style, and the level of the course, while also giving us the opportunity to get to know you as a dancer. We believe that one of the advantages of joining a dance school is being able to trust the teachers' experience and criteria. During the trial class, we not only help you decide whether the course feels right for you, but we also assess whether it is the best fit for your current level and learning journey. Our goal is not simply to place you in a class, but to help you find your happy place within our dance community — the environment where you can learn most comfortably, progress steadily, and enjoy dancing the most. The final decision regarding the level is therefore ultimately ours. If we notice that you are struggling significantly with the material, we may ask you to observe the remainder of the class and recommend a different level instead. This is not meant to embarrass you or make you feel uncomfortable. Quite the opposite: it allows us to stay true to our values regarding technique, learning quality, and the comfort of the students who have been learning and progressing in the course over time. In the long run, you'll probably be grateful for being placed in the level that supports your growth and enjoyment the most. 😊 We are very much looking forward to meeting you and dancing with you! Yago, Helen, Pamela, Marion, Leo & Sylvaan

In diesem Kurs beschäftigen wir uns mit verschiedenen Texten aus unterschiedlichen Bereichen. Das können u.a. kurze Geschichten, Gedichte, Zeitungsartikel, Kolumnen oder Videos sein. Immer sind es Themen, die uns gefallen, die wir besonders interessant, wichtig oder manchmal auch richtig schlecht finden. Gemeinsam versuchen wir die Position der Autor*in, den Stil und die Argumentationsstruktur zu verstehen. Dazu diskutieren wir über das, was wir verstehen, welche Meinung wir zu dem Thema haben oder welche Fragen offen bleiben.
Gerne könnt ihr uns auch Themenvorschläge mitbringen oder zuschicken.
Der Kurs richtet sich an interessierte Menschen mit einem B2-Niveau (oder so ähnlich), die Lust haben sich weiter mit der deutschen Sprache zu beschäftigen und ihren Wortschatz zu erweitern.
Die Termine sind sporadisch.

On se rencontre mardi prochain pour discuter en français dans une ambiance amicale chez le café / resto Spreegold en Prenzlauer Berg, ou on a réservé une table (il faut demander du French Meetup). Le restaurant n'accepte pas les paiements en espèces. Merci et à bientôt! PS: Si quelqu'un venait à oublier de régler sa commande (cela est malheureusement déjà arrivé), je vous demanderais de bien vouloir participer aux frais de consommation à hauteur de **0,50 €** par personne. Merci de votre compréhension.

**Rumba Columbia is a powerful and sensitive dance. Through Columbia, dancers express their deepest emotions. It is an improvisational dance developed in Cuba, where each dancer enters alone and shows their individuality.** **It combines fast, intricate footwork with sharp shoulder movements, constantly shifting in tempo and cadence. But Columbia is about more than technique — it is about presence and dialogue. The dancer and the quinto (lead drum) interact in real time, creating a living conversation between rhythm and movement. 🥁** **Traditionally, Columbia was danced mostly by men, as it originated in shipyards and docks where they expressed strength, agility, and creativity. Today, rumberas also shape the dance, bringing new grace and power to it.** **Columbia remains a dance of individuality — every gesture, step, and accent is personal. It’s not about perfection, but about truth, rhythm, and connection.** **In this course, we do not learn pre-set choreographies. Instead, we focus on improvisation and help you develop your own style and expression within the dance. ✨** **📧 info@puntocubanoberlin.com** **📞 +49 155 100 966 28** 💛 What to Expect from a Free Trial Class If you choose to join a free trial class, please note that you will be joining an ongoing course rather than a class specifically designed for complete beginners. The purpose of the trial class is to give you the opportunity to get an impression of me as a teacher, my teaching style, and the atmosphere of the class. This is an open-level class and usually includes dancers with a wide range of experience, including some more advanced students. I therefore encourage you not to compare yourself too much to the people around you. Instead, focus on taking from the class what matches your current level and experience. It is perfectly fine if, for now, "all" you take home is the basic step of this beautiful dance. 😊 Rumba Columbia is a dance with many layers. Week by week, you will improve your body movement, technique, coordination, musicality, and build your own repertoire of movements and ideas. My goal is not for everyone to master the same material at the same speed, but for each dancer to continue growing from wherever they currently are. I am very much looking forward to meeting you and dancing with you! Yago

Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: A wealthy corporate raider hires a Hollywood escort as his date for a week of high-society business events. But what starts as a business transaction blossoms into genuine love, challenging both of their lives and leading to an unexpected romance. The film is directed by Garry Marshall and stars Richard Gere, Julia Roberts, Héctor Elizondo, Ralph Bellamy (in his final performance), Laura San Giacomo and Jason Alexander. MINI TRAILER: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-JghOdhAwc](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-JghOdhAwc) SHORT BONUS CLIP #1 - DIRECTOR GARRY MARSHALL Recalls Famous Scenes from the Film: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HpIMOzieGPs](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HpIMOzieGPs) SHORT BONUS CLIP #2 - RICHARD GERE on the Film’s Impact all these years later: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0T3O94dAA8](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0T3O94dAA8) SHORT BONUS CLIP #3 - JULIA ROBERTS Remembers a Gift from Director Garry Marshall: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJ4AZSjbMsA](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJ4AZSjbMsA) BUZZ & ACCLAIM: A huge box office hit at the time of its release, PRETTY WOMAN has since gone on to become a modern-day classic!

Critics praise Julia Roberts’ star-making performance, the undeniable chemistry between her and Richard Gere, and its warm, funny feel-good story about kindness, self-worth and transformation! The film’s “intelligence and wit,” “first-class performances” and “sharp, funny script” have made Pretty Woman a classic and truly “something special!” THE OHIO THEATRE: The Ohio Theatre is located at 39 E.
