Konpa (Haitian dance)
May 14, 2024 - Jul 2, 2024
This is an all-level class for people who wish to learn Konpa or improve it.
*This class is for people with or without a partner as participants can switch/rotale partner.
 
****No make up class, no cancelation and no transfer!!!!
 
In this classes we will work on footworks and how to incorporate them in partnerworks. We will also work on proper techniques to improve body awereness and understand how to control your body to become a better lead and/or follow.
 
Class description:

Konpa is a popular form of jazz-based dance music that originated in Haiti during the mid-twentieth century. Konpa is derived from méringue de salon, a string-based style of Haitian dance music inspired by contra dance, a dance style from Europe. The popularity of konpa has inspired many Caribbean music forms, including the Antillean zouk and cadence-lypso, from the Dominican Republic.

The traditional konpa sound features the brass instruments associated with big band, like the saxophone, trumpet, and trombone, and the slower rhythms of méringue de salon, set to the pulsating beats of tanbou, a barrel drum from Haiti. Modern konpa, or compas nouvelle génération, replaces many traditional kompa instruments with electronic equipment, such as synthesizers and drum machines, and adds elements of hip-hop and reggae to appeal to club and dancehall audiences.

Konpa adopted its moniker from the Spanish word “compás”, which means “rhythm” or “measure”, as in a musical measure or bar.
