Rueda de Casino, also known as Cuban Salsa, is a social dance formation that was born in Cuba in the 1950’s. Each dancer is paired with a leader or follower and positioned to make a circle. The Rueda is called by ‘the Cantante’ (the caller) who will call the steps that the dancers have to make, swapping partners many times as they move around and keep the shape of the circle.

Carolina has more than 25 years of experience dancing, first ballet and now salsa. She started dancing salsa 15 years ago. Within the latin community Carol specializes in rueda de casino, a social dance formation originally from Cuba. She used to dance and co-run Boston Rueda with the well-known Jose Barretto and she danced and performed in the past with MIT Casino Rueda. Carol co-runs Rueda at the Park NY group (1.700 people in facebook) organizing dancing events during summer at Central Park and other areas, plus rueda de casino workshops around the city during all year.

…She is so passionate about rueda de casino that she collaborates with several groups across the world, attending and helping with the organization of rueda festivals, classes and workshops around the world, and part of an international group that creates and innovates new forms of dancing rueda, expanding the community internationally, as well as blog articles. Because dance is a vital part of Carol’s life and has helped her to regain her voice, now she wants to help others to learn and take advantage of the benefits of dancing, and as a tool to get confident and motivated.
