Rumba Guaguancó Level 2 Bootcamp

Rumba Guaguancó Level 2 Bootcamp

In this bootcamp, we’ll take everything you built in Level 1, your rhythm, posture, and understanding of Guaguancó, and bring it to the next level.

It’s time to expand your movement, deepen your connection, and explore the playful, powerful energy of Rumba Guaguancó.


You’ll refine your movement, express the dialogue between roles: the invitation, the game, the vacunao, and the response.


Date: Saturday, November 22


Time: 11:00–14:00


Location: CanDance Studios, Isolatorweg 28, Amsterdam (FREE parking!)


Level: Beginner/Intermediate – for dancers who already completed Level 1 or have Rumba experience. To join this bootcamp, it's required to know the basic techniques including the body movement and the cachán steps forward and to the sides. You can practice with our online Rumba Level 1 course in case you missed the L1 bootcamp!


In the bootcamp you'll learn:

  • Understand the deeper dynamics of Guaguancó, the play, rhythm, and dialogue between the roles.

  • Integrate isolations and transitions that bring authenticity, sabor, and flow to your dance.

  • Explore new combinations and movements that allow you to express yourself freely.

  • Connect with the cultural meaning, codes, and respect behind every gesture in Rumba Guaguancó.
