À propos

Step into the rhythm and embrace the rich heritage of Mexican dance with Alexis Diaz and Sofia Armstrong. This class is designed to introduce you to the essential steps and rhythms of Zapateado, a traditional Mexican dance. Experience the lively and rhythmic footwork that characterizes this dance, celebrated for its energetic and expressive qualities. Whether you are a beginner or have some dance experience, this class will provide you with a foundational understanding of the Zapateado's unique style and cultural significance. Enjoy an in-studio performance by Ofrenda Kids at after the workshop!

Alexis boasts over 20 years in the field and currently teaches Mexican folkloric dance to kids in the GTA. Sofia, with more than 15 years of experience, has worked alongside Alexis as a former UNESCO CIOFF member and is a co-founder of the OFRENDA Festival, one of Toronto's pioneering "Día de los Muertos" folklore festivals.

This workshop is part of Dance Together Festival York Region. All workshops and events are free for participants, thanks to the generous support of the Host in Vaughan Grant and Richmond Hill Community and Cultural Grant Program. Presented by the Dance Together Project in partnership with York Region Arts Council, Assembly Park, City of Vaughan, Tourism Vaughan, City of Richmond Hill and Richmond Hill Public Library.
