Dance Storytellers

ISLA DE SALSA is an intercultural festival aimed at sharing joy and cultural diversity through music, dance, and gastronomy, transcending differences in genre, nationality, and generation. Just as each musician expresses their unique proposal through music, dancers, from internationally renowned professionals to dance groups, from children to adults, tell their own stories through the rhythm and movement of dance. For this reason, we consider the dancers "Dance Storytellers."
