NY Bomba: Bomba and Rumba Super Sunday - Sunday February 9, 2014



Global Rhythms presents Super Sunday: Back to back Rumba and Bomba Dance Class !!!

Back by popular demand, Global Rhythms offers a crash course rumba workshop reviewing the techniques and concepts from RumbAcademy I. This is a great opportunity for beginner students who want to learn dance fundamentals in time for the remaining weeks of RumbAcademy.www.globalrhythmsashe.com.



The Rumba workshop will be followed by an Afro-Puerto Rican Bomba dance workshop led dancer and cultural worker Cynthia Renta. During this workshop, students will learn Bomba dance in an interactive, energetic and supportive dance environment. Special focus will be given to building improvisational solo dance techniques. Our desire is to continue building important cultural, artistic ties between Puerto Rican and Cuban art communities often referred to as the “dos alas” or (two wings of the same bird). We will look specifically at the importance of Rumba (Cuba) and Bomba (Puerto Rico) respectively as community participatory art forms.www.facebook.com/cynthiarenta



The Rumba and Bomba workshop will be followed by a group class trip to the Los Gallos Rumba in Harlem. Students will have the opportunity to execute their new dance steps in am open rumba event amongst the wider dance and artist community.
