What are the motivations and pleasures experienced in Latin dances based on the experiences of more than 75 participants? How does the practice of Latin dances serve as a lever for personal and social transformation?

These questions are explored in this book, which approaches Latin dances as an artistic, social, and educational practices. Each page is an open door to unique experiences, where music, movement, and human connection come together to create memorable moments.
