AContra Casineros

AContra are passionate about Latin dance- in particular anything Cuban and their first dance-love, Rueda de Casino. Trained by Cuban dancers at home and in Cuba, Maxine and Akshar pride themselves on teaching authentic Cuban style in a way that is clear, vibrant, accessible and of course fun in an Aussie context! 
We reside in Melbourne, Australia and teach weekly classes there as well as at festival and events all over Victoria, Australia and occasionally overseas too!
Specialties include; Cuban Salsa (Casino), Rueda de Casino, lead and follow technique, musicality and timing as well as floor craft to name a few. Examples of Son, Rumba, Cha Cha Cha, Afro-Cuban, Mambo and other Cuban styles are regularly included in their classes to showcase the beauty and variety of Cuban dance and music.
We coined the term ‘Ruedetiquette” (the top 5 tips to be a fabulous Rueda dancer) and have spread this and the #RuedaLove wherever we go!
