About Cuban Modern

In Cuban Modern Technique, Anara will lead students through a series of exercises, drills, and combinations from this unique style. Cuban Modern is a codified technique, created in the 1960s, that fused American Contemporary (primarily Graham, as well as Limon, Cunnigham and Sokolow) with Afro-Cuban Dances and Classical Ballet.

The Fundamentals Class will focus on a few important building blocks from the technique in depth each week, helping each student develop natural flowing movement, and improve posture, extension and lines. It will feature the undulations of the torso, the fluidity of the arms and the strength of the core that are some of the most noted elements of the style. Each class will include an uplifting warm-up and stretch with traditional Cuban music.
