Cuban Modern Technique is a unique training method developed in 1960s Havana to train dancers in Cuba’s national companies, including Danza Contemporánea de Cuba and the Conjunto Folclórico Nacional. It blends Modern Dance with Afro-Cuban dance genres like Orishas, Congo, Rumba, and Flamenco. With structured exercises and expressive movement, this technique builds strength, flexibility, and artistry—while honoring Cuba’s cultural roots. It remains a core part of dance education across styles in Cuba today, often known simply as “La Clase Técnica" or "Danza". These classes will be taught by Javier Jeffer & Anara Frank of MetaMovements and it's open to all levels. Beginners to this style of dance must attend the first hour. 

Schedule on Wednesdays starting July 2, 2025:

  • 6:30–7:30 PM: DeCu Foundations (provides the foundation for the following 2 hrs. beginners to these styles must attend this first hour)

  • 7:30-8:30PM: Cuban Folklore Technique
