What Is Cuban Modern Technique?
Cuban Modern Technique is a series of dance exercises and combinations created in the 1960s in Havana, Cuba. It has a Modern Dance structure, while the music and movements reflect Cuba's cultural traditions, including Orishas, Rumba, Flamenco, and more. This technique offers comprehensive training to improve posture and presentation, enhance fluid and organic movement, and build dynamic strength and flexibility. In Cuba today it is considered essential for dancers of all styles and levels, and serves as the base of training for their dance companies and schools. In fact, it's so widely used that it is simply referred to as 'Clase Tecnica' or 'Technique Class.'
Anara Frank of MetaMovements is excited to share elements of this unique technique with dance-lovers in the Boston area over the next two weeks!
