Casino Rueda
Class Details
May Casino Rueda – Rotating 5:30pm Latin Class Casino Rueda is a lively, social Cuban partner dance known for its circular formation, energetic partner changes, and playful group dynamics. This all-level 4-week series is designed for dancers of all backgrounds, offering beginners an approachable introduction while giving returning dancers space to deepen their timing, coordination, and responsiveness within a group setting. Throughout the series, dancers will focus on rhythm, footwork, partner connection, and call-based movement while exploring the fun, interactive quality that defines Casino Rueda. Whether you are learning the basics or refining your fundamentals, this class helps dancers become more confident, adaptable, and connected both with a partner and within the circle. How It Works • 4-week progressive series (same day/time each week) • No drop-ins — this is designed for real progress • Built to complement your Salsa & Bachata training To create the best experience possible, Rueda months will include: • Pre-registration required (full month commitment) • Limited lead & follow spots to keep balance • Minimum enrollment required to run the series • A community-driven experience where everyone grows together Advanced Rueda workshops may be offered quarterly for returning students Why This Exists We’ve found that the biggest growth (and the most fun) happens when dancers: • Commit to a short series • Learn with the same group • Build confidence week by week NOTE: Progressive courses gradually layer new concepts each week and provide time to review and build muscle memory. It’s an effective way to improve as a dancer while becoming more confident, connected, and comfortable in social dancing.

Notes About Classes At Nexus
• We strongly recommend booking in advance to streamline the check in process. • If you drop in, please note you will need to sign the liability waiver so plan to arrive earlier to do that. • All group classes at Nexus SLO are taught progressively each month so we recommend coming for the full series to get the whole experience. • No partner or prior experience is needed unless otherwise noted (such as for intermediate-level classes). • We rotate partners often to help everyone learn, but you're welcome to stay with your own partner if preferred. • No special shoes or equipment required—just come ready to move and have fun!
