@movimientoconadri a welcoming dance class for all levels of experience and genders! we’ll get dancefloor ready at Unicorn Bar and dive into the world of Amapiano and Afrobeats with a little reggaeton flair. We’ll warm up and get loose and create a safe people’s cauldron of healing & liberated dance for the epic DJ danceparty to follow. You can expect follow along dance moves, improv dance, and a little (don’t be scared!) choreo <3
