Cuban salsa lessons with an immersive musical experience

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I offer Cuban salsa lessons for everyone, whether you are a woman, a man or a couple. With my experience as a percussionist in the salsa group Nolosé, which won 4 awards, including that of the best foreign group in Havana, I learned salsa dancing in Cuba. My teaching method is based on attentive listening to the music to create a dance in harmony with the energy released by the musicians.

About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
From a mother musician, Laurent Cuénoud rubbed shoulders with instruments from an early age, trying his hand at flute, piano, trumpet and saxophone, which led him to the land of jazz.

A trip to Burkina Faso reveals to him the magic of African percussions. Engaged for the 25 performances of the Power Dance show at Barnabé, Laurent discovers the pleasures of the stage.

Having quickly succumbed to the charm of Cuban salsa, he learned the congas and founded the group Nolosé in 2004. The group performed more than 250 times, leading him on Swiss and foreign stages including the Havana festival in Cuba.

Lover of dance, Laurent learned Puerto Rican salsa with Mario Reisch, as well as Cuban with Alia Gachassin. Since then, Laurent has organized the “Salsa dance in Cuba” trip several times a year, which offers total immersion in the heart of Havana.

In 2015, Laurent gave his first dance lessons. His knowledge of Cuban music facilitates the integration of rhythm into dance steps. He also runs several musicology workshops with the aim of physically internalizing music.

For sure, you will be won over by his enthusiasm and energy.

Education

Ciar
Contemporary Dance Class and Tutoring - Intermediate / Advanced
Ciar is a recent graduate of Rambert School of Ballet and Contemporary Dance; a versatile queer dance artist freelancing in London with a background in Hip-Hop, Circus Arts, Classical Ballet and Contemporary dance. I hope to offer everyone an exciting and enjoyable time whilst pushing thier physical capabilities. Dance should be fun! My class explores a choreographic style of contemporary dance with clear influences from Cunningham technique and my recent expirience working with Jason Mabana. The work will challenge your coordination, rhythm, attention to detail and demostrate a contemporary application of classical teachnical forms, but all through explorative and original material. The class is structured like any other technical class, each exercise desinged to methodicaly warm up and work the body, building on the previous exercises, before culminating in a longer choreography where we can pull everything together and just have a boogie. I can tailor the work to each student however I would reccomend having some technical expirience, classical or contemporary.

Elena
Ballet class (Vaganova School), audition and contest preparation for intermediate and advanced students
In addition to ballet classes and stretching, I also provide audition preparation and competition training variations. My ballet class is typically divided into two parts: Barre and Center, which include adagio, pirouettes, and jumps. We can reserve time for pointe technique upon request as well. During classes, attention is given not only to the technical aspects of the combinations provided but also to their musicality and the logic of movements. Detailed analysis is also provided on which muscles should be engaged in each movement and what sensations the student should experience when executing the steps correctly. It would be great if you could share a video of your class or variation performance before our first class. This will allow me to assess your level and make our lesson as productive as possible.

I primarily danced with Cunningham technique but have good experience of other techniques such as Graham, release and Gaga.
