Dance Party: Salsa Dura

Since 2014, the Dance Party has been a time-honored tradition in midtown and will be back at Bryant Park this summer! Attendees gather at the famous Bryant Park Fountain and are taught fundamental dance moves by expert instructors from 6 to 7pm. Following that, from 7 to 8:30pm, participants can showcase their new dance steps to live music played by various bands of diverse genres. The Dance Party is designed to make dancing entertaining and approachable for people of all ages and skill levels with hands-on training in well-known steps. Talia Castro-Pozo is the host, and a group of exceptional teachers from around the world brings their in-depth knowledge of the customs and modernizations of their preferred dance styles. Marlon Mills and Talia Castro Pozo will lead the instruction at 6pm, while the live music at 7pm will be provided by La Exelencia.
