"I had 2 incredible weeks in Havana this April with a group of amazing people, as a part of the Afro-Cuban dance festival organised by Luanda Pau. The festival consists of 5 full days of dance workshops which included Orishas, rumba, Mozambique, son, danzón and other traditional Cuban dances, thought by Domingo Pau himself along with other really talented and inspiring teachers from Cuba. In the festival pass we also had concerts and parties included, in addition we organised a trip to Matanzas where we met the famous Muñequitos de Matanzas and had a full day of classes with them. The whole week we spent in the company of the Pau family, which treated us as part of their own, sharing their talent, passion and love for the Cuban dance and music. The whole experience was unforgettable not only because of everything we learned, the places we visited, the character of Cuba and it’s people and the incredible music but also being with a group who share the same passion, as well as meeting new people from all over the world, made this really unique. Being in Havana in April is beautiful, the price of the festival was really affordable and the quality of teaching was of professional level, I highly recommend it!"

"For anyone passionate about Cuban dances and culture, and more specifically Afrocuban dances, this festival is an absolute must do. I was looking for intensive training in Afrocuban dances and I definitely received more than what I had anticipated. The organisation and quality of teaching was beyond my expectations. I also got to discover Cuban dances I had never learned or heard of before. Being surrounded by other festival goers who were very friendly and as passionate and eager to learn as I was, also made my experience even more so pleasant and unforgettable. I came out of the festival with a better understanding of Afrocuban dances techniques, and this was very apparent in my body movements when dancing. I obviously highly recommend this festival and will definitely attend again."
