About this Class

Originally from Cuba, the Mambo is enjoyed throughout the world because of its high energy and infectious rhythms. NY Style Mambo had its humble beginnings at the famous Palladium Ballroom. This style is a flirtatious dance component that includes the basics, body movement, steps, footwork, and timing.

Learn the foundation of Mambo dancing with occasional points, kicks, and exaggerated hip movements combined with long, flowing movements and sharp quick steps. This beginner-level class is an open shines class that aims to bring some classic NY Style Mambo back to its roots.
