The band is directed & led by Loren Alain, Chilean born percussionist who aims to make audiences not only dance, but have a great time by getting involved in the band’s performance.. “you will find the urge to move your hips irresistible”.
Dance the Peninsula
Dance the Peninsula is a northern beaches dance community that started as the country was regaining freedom after the era of COVID-19 when the local salsa dancers were getting edgy with cabin fever. Dance the Peninsula is more of a community of Rueda de Casino fanatics, than a dance school. Dance the Penninsula is led by Angel Neshama, a well known & respected dancer in the Latin Dancing community who specialises in Cuban dance. She has performed with various ensembles & Cuban Dance schools in Sydney sharing her passion of Cuban music & dance.
