The Youth Program at Esquina Tango uses Latin Dance-and its influences, such as Cumbia, Tango, Samba among other dances, as the foundation of its program. Participants will learn specific dances, rhythms, footwork, carriage, and frames of selected dances. A multi-cultural approach to the curriculum emphasizes community and individual expression while studying various dances. The curriculum is developed by a team of dance educators with extensive experience working with youth in diverse populations. Participants enjoy opportunities to express themselves and develop peer interactions in a positive environment and the classes culminates with a ‘showing’ for parents and invited guests.
