Although the effect of dance on mood is widely known, in recent years scientific evidence has demonstrated its benefits on brain processes. The full attention required for technique, body memory, and the connections that are created (with music, with a dance partner, with oneself) make this practice a unique method to improve personal well-being both internally and externally. We begin regular classes by learning bachata and salsa from the beginner level. These are Latin dances with very recognizable rhythms, which facilitates their learning and enjoyment from the initial sessions. In our classes, beyond learning, we promote community building and the therapeutic function of bodily movement for releasing trapped emotions. Classes are taught by Antonio Álvarez, a ballroom dance and Latin rhythms instructor with 35 years of experience. His method emphasizes students' technique, style in both male and female roles, and overall musicality. He also values the therapeutic role of dance as a physical movement that allows people to flow with music and learn to release the control that contributes daily to our rigidity. Each 90-minute class costs €20. **If you wish to attend, it is necessary to reserve your spot via this [link](https://lacasadeestar.com/reservar-actividad/?id_epigrafe=2636&id_panel=1202&id_experiencia=21415&id_elemento=21415&tipo_elemento=2&id_destino=5405&id_operador=5405&id_punto_venta=7497&id_idioma=0&cierre_app=1&CodAgencia=undefined) or contact us via phone number 613 033 406 (calls and WhatsApp) or by email at info@lacasadeestar.com**
