What is Rueda?
Originating in Cuba, Rueda, which means wheel in Spanish, is danced in a circle. It is similar to a folk dance in the way that it has a caller who will call out or hand signal a move or combination of moves that all the couples will do allowing for a beautifully, synchronized dance. For this reason, timing and knowledge of the moves is essential. Four major moves get the wheel started: Al Medio, Abajo, Dile Que No(which is a cross body lead) and Guapea. Couples dance Guapea until the caller calls a move. Rueda becomes fun and challenging when moves are called that switch partners. Certain moves such as, Enchufa, Enchufa Doble, Adios, Dame and Dame Dos will send the lady moving clockwise around the circle. Not all the moves switch partners and there are literally hundreds of moves and combinations to learn. Rueda is a great social dance that's fun and challenging and allows you to interact with other dancers.
This class is designed to introduce the concept of this dance and some easy, simple moves to the first time Rueda dancer.
Odds are, you'll have fun!
arn these moves.
