Join us on 18 May, 2-4pm for the QUEER Salsa Musicality Workshop with the exceptional Kasia - a dancer and accomplished musician who brings a unique blend of expertise to this vibrant session.
This workshop is designed to deepen your connection to salsa music and elevate your dancing by exploring the art of musicality. Musicality is more than just moving to the beat; it’s about feeling the music’s rhythm, mood, and dynamics, and expressing these through your body with intention and fluidity. Kasia’s dual background as a professional salsa dancer and salsa flutist means she intimately understands music from both the performer’s and dancer’s perspective, making this workshop a rare opportunity to truly unlock the power of music in your dance.
Why focus on musicality?
Musicality helps you become a better dancer by:
- Enhancing your timing and precision, so your movements sync perfectly with the music’s beats and accents. This creates a polished and captivating performance that stands out on the dance floor.
- Encouraging you to interpret the music’s emotional nuances, allowing your dance to tell a personal story and resonate deeply with both you and your partner or audience.
- Improving your ability to anticipate changes in tempo and dynamics, which makes your dancing more adaptable and expressive, even during the most upbeat or complex salsa songs.
- Developing coordination and intentionality in your movements, as musical training naturally translates into more fluid and controlled dance technique.
In this two-hour workshop, Kasia will guide you through exercises that help you find the “one” - the fundamental beat in salsa music - and explore how to embody the rhythms and accents through your footwork, styling, and partnerwork. You’ll learn to listen deeply and respond creatively to the music, enhancing your confidence and joy on the dance floor.
Whether you’re a beginner or looking to deepen your salsa practice, this workshop offers a supportive, queer-affirming space to grow your skills and connect with others who share your passion for dance and music.
Come ready to move, listen, and express yourself in new and exciting ways. Let Kasia’s rich musical and dance expertise inspire you to transform your salsa dancing through the power of musicality!
