This workshop was the highlight of my trip to Mexico City! The instructors were incredibly knowledgeable and patient. I learned so much about Mexican culture through the dances.
I was a bit nervous as I've never taken a dance class before, but the instructors made everyone feel comfortable. The historical context they provided made the dances so much more meaningful.
The instruction was excellent and I learned a lot, but our session had about 20 people which made it a bit difficult to get personal attention. Still, a wonderful experience I'd recommend!
