Introductory Eleggua Session

In this 5 week intensive course students will be introduced to the basic steps of Orisha Dances focusing on Elegguá.  These classes will give you an understanding of the origins of Cuban dance, help you with your expression and body movement, and find and develop your own flavour and styling which you can then incorporate into your Salsa and other disciplines.

Elegguá is called the Lord of the Crossroads because he plays a role in every decision we make in life.  With his help, things go smoothly.  But, he can also put obstacles in our path, and life takes unexpected and negative turns.  Most practitioners of Santería know that it's very important to maintain good relations with Eleguá because without him, nothing is possible. 

Location: La Cité Francophone

Course Dates: Fridays 7-8 pm Sept 21 to Oct 19, 2018 (5 weeks – 1 hr/wk).

FAQs

1. Who is this course aimed at? This course has proven to be of particular interest to people with a dance background or interest in Afro Cuban Dance, but it is not a pre-requisite.
2. What to wear? Dance or gym gear. Comfort and stretch important.. and coolness. This class will be a real workout. Bare feet or dance slippers. No heels.
3. Why do I have to pay upfront and in full? This ensures commitment, which is needed for small special interest courses like this, for both yours and your fellow class mates' benefit. It makes it much easier for Orlando to teach and advance if people are there every week.
4. Can I get a refund if I have to cancel? We will only be able to offer a refund if we have someone to take your place on a waiting list.
