Dance and Movement

**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

***Nostalgia, Energy & Iconic Moves*** Step back into the golden era of MTV and VIVA and celebrate Yourself through the power of music and movement. This class brings back the magic of a time when we watched weekly charts, learned choreographies from music videos, and were inspired by icons like Britney Spears, Beyoncé, and Shakira. It’s all about reliving that energy—while making it Your own. Led by Anastasia, a Berlin-based dance instructor who started her journey back when Commercial Dance was known as Videoclip Dancing. She used to switch between MTV and VIVA, recording her favorite music videos on VHS to learn every move by heart. Today, she brings these memories back to life - blending nostalgia with fresh energy and a deep love for movement. ‍ > I would like to create a space where You feel free to express Yourself, reconnect with the music You love, and enjoy every moment on the dancefloor. – Anastasia ‍ Each session offers a mix of technique, grooves, and choreography inspired by legendary music videos, adapted to the level of every participant (both beginners and experienced dancers). Expect a dynamic, feel-good atmosphere where You can let go, have fun, and reconnect with the joy of dancing. * While we’re celebrating the millennial era, all generations are warmly welcome **TICKETS:** available: at the Box Office before the class ‍ See You Soon. Love. Anastasia & DNA. **LEVEL**: All levels **WHAT YOU NEED**: sneaker, comfy clothes **COSTS**: €15 Regular (Online / Box Office) \- Free for DNA\. Members

In this course, we will build on and review the topics from Casino III–V. To join, you should already be familiar with figures such as: **enchufla variations, desplazamientos (saloneo / paseos), Coca-Cola, vacílala**, and similar material. We will continue adding **footwork and arm styling (functional styling)** to enrich your dancing while keeping your movements clear, connected, and functional. ✨ In addition, we will explore how to enrich your dancing with elements from other Cuban dances. You will learn to use your body more consciously and to interpret the music through movement, rhythm, and personal expression — rather than simply connecting one figure after another. Cuban Salsa (Timba) is deeply connected to other Cuban dance and music traditions, such as **Rumba Guaguancó**. We want to show you how to integrate this richness into your dancing and express the music in a more authentic and musical way. 🎶✨ As always, we stay 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.* If you need more information or are unsure whether this level is right for you, feel free to contact us 😊 📧 [info@puntocubanoberlin.com](mailto: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**
