The Cuban Blueprint is a progressive training series taught by Barbaro, professionally trained at the Conjunto Folklórico Nacional de Cuba. Each module combines authentic Cuban technique, musicality and practical social dancing through intensive coaching, personal feedback and hands-on training.

Every month can be taken as a standalone module, while dancers following the full Blueprint journey benefit from the deepest progression and integration of all concepts.

October explores the connection between Rumba Guaguancó and modern Timba. You'll learn how to bring more flavour, playfulness and character into both your solo dancing and partnerwork.

• Oct 10: Rumba Guaguancó (couple) • Timba con Rumba (solo)
• Oct 24: Timba Footwork (solo) • Timba Cubana (couple)

By the end of October, you will:

✓ Add authentic Rumba flavour to your dancing
✓ Improve body control, speed and rhythm variations
✓ Express more character during musical breaks
✓ Bring greater playfulness and dynamics into your partnerwork
