Reda Weekend is already full. You can join the queue in case of cancellations: info@flama.fi.
In January 2027, Tanssistudio Flama welcomes you to Matias Löyttyniemi’s Rueda Weekend.
Come and enjoy wonderful salsa in the form of rueda! In rueda de casino, dancers form a circle (= rueda), led by one person calling out the moves. Partners change on the fly, and it’s impossible not to smile.
Matias is Finland’s most experienced rueda instructor. With him, we’ll explore flow-focused rueda, creating continuous energy and movement in the dance while sharing the moment as a group. Get ready for a deep dive into the wonderful world of rueda!
Flama’s Rueda Weekend includes 8 hours of dance classes and Saturday’s Timba Night party. The teaching progresses throughout the weekend, and registration is for the full three-day programme. This allows the group to build on what they have learned from one class to the next. Tickets for individual classes are not available.
The classes are intended for intermediate-level couple salsa dancers who have been dancing salsa for at least one year. You should therefore have a solid foundation in Cuban partner salsa to take part in the weekend.
Please note! We do not offer refunds if you need to cancel your booking. In the case of illness, you may receive a gift card of equal value to use at our studio instead.
