All Guadalupe Dance Academy classes begin with an awareness of body
movement, skirt work (for girls) and footwork or “zapateado”.  Students
are taught the cultural significance of the dances, its origins, traditional
costumes and choreography.  Students engage in activities that maintain
coordination, balance and weight shifting which is essential to accomplishing footwork.  They continue learning sequences and combinations in preparation as their
technique advances. Dancers continue to learn traditional dances with more
complex choreography as they progress and perform, after one of training with
the Academy, in the annual recital showcasing their training. In addition to
learning the dance technique and performance skills, students are also developing
the skills for critical thinking, creativity, problem solving, evaluation and
self-assessment through observation.
