Salsa & Bachata Ballet:
A Celebration of Latin Culture Through Dance
Salsa & Bachata Ballet is a new choreographic project directed by international dancer and choreographer Leonardo Guerrero, in collaboration with Juan Rando Dance Academy (JRDA). This initiative is designed to promote and celebrate the richness and diversity of Latin culture through dance — specifically Salsa Cali Style and Dominican Bachata and other Latin rhythms such as Merengue, Cha-Cha-Chá, Boogaloo, Pachanga and more.
This project aims to build an inclusive dance group where community members can come together to learn, practice, and perform, all while sharing their love for Latin music and movement.
