Our mission is to present dances that reflect our passion for movement, music and the synergy that happens when a group of individuals is synchronised and connected. Some of our dances are simply for the joy of movement while others tell a story or present a message. Some of the genres we’ve covered: electro swing, salsa, burlesque, bachata, cha cha, cumbia and a few moves borrowed from tango, bel
lydance and hip hop. Dance the Sun formed in 2011 as Las Calientes; since then the group has performed in a number of Nelson community events and Latin dance events around the South Island, including the Masked Parade and the South Island Salsa Champs. Dance the Sun welcomes adults of all ages, shapes, sizes and levels of dance experience. Call Fiona 021 0279 6390 for details.
