Goal of the Activity

Show international students a very popular dance style; promote physical exercise through dance.

Description

For the organisation of this activity a Whatsapp group was created with the coordinators to decide the dance styles to be taught (bachata and merengue) and the songs. The class was given by one of the volunteers attending the activity as she has knowledge of these dance styles. The promotion of the activity was done through the usual channels. On the day of the activity, we went to Espacio Joven half an hour before the start of the class to prepare the music and make sure that the loudspeakers were working properly. The class was at a beginners' level and lasted an hour and a half. In this way, the international students and volunteers present were able to learn some basic bachata and merengue steps. The class was conducted in English after asking all attendees if there was no problem. If not, it could have been offered in Spanish and English simultaneously.
