Although the effect of dancing on mood is widely known, scientific studies in recent years have demonstrated its benefits for brain function. Full attention to technique, bodily memory, and the connections formed (with music, with one’s dance partner, and with oneself) make this practice a unique method for enhancing personal well-being—both internally and externally. We begin regular classes by learning bachata and salsa from beginner level. These are Latin dances with highly recognizable rhythms, facilitating both learning and enjoyment from the very first sessions. In our classes, beyond skill acquisition, we foster community building and the therapeutic function of bodily movement for releasing trapped emotions. Classes are taught by Antonio Álvarez, a ballroom and Latin rhythm dance instructor with 35 years of experience. His teaching method emphasizes students’ technique, stylistic expression—whether in the male or female role—and overall musicality. He also values the therapeutic function of dance as bodily movement, enabling individuals to flow with music and learn to release the control that contributes daily to our physical and mental rigidity. Each 90-minute class costs €20. **To attend, you must 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 at 613 033 406 (calls and WhatsApp) or by email at info@lacasadeestar.com**
