Adenuga AfroLatin Dance & Wellness

Welcome to Adenuga Afro-Latin Dance & Wellness!

Mission: To promote movement, positivity and wellness through the use of Afro-Diasporic music, dance and cultures; To help expand the South Jersey Salsa dance community; To introduce South Jersey to other AfroLatin Dance styles; and to help preserve cultural folkloric dances.

Method: We believe that in order for a dance and wellness practice to have a strong foundation, it must be supported holistically. That means through body, mind and spirit; and also through a balanced focus of both individual and communal wellbeing. All of the classes, workshops and programs are built on the foundations of positive psychology and mindfulness. This means that our teaching philosophy and approach is based in the belief that anyone can flourish when provided a safe, supportive environment, focused on building personal strengths rather than focusing on weaknesses (positive psychology); and the belief that we all have body wisdom that can be expressed through self exploration and creative movement.

Styles Taught: At Adenuga Afro-Latin Dance & Wellness, we offer group dance classes and workshops in the following styles: Salsa (On1 & On2), Bachata, Cha-Cha, AfroCuban Folkloric as well as Afrobeats and other West African dances. We also offer Afro-Therapeutic Dance (general movement meditation).
