What started in 1989 as a small two-day community affair by president and producer Lido Chilelli, has now evolved into an all-encompassing festival for Toronto and beyond. Beaches Jazz is one of Toronto's most successful events of the summer and a significant tourist attraction. Beaches Jazz continues to be one of the few remaining free jazz festivals and the leading festival for promoting Canadian musical talent.

Come and join our Latidos special workshop, an opportunity to get a taste of the special flavour we bring from Cuba each year. The free workshop will include a demo of Salsa and Reggaeton and will let you try for yourself: Salsa, Reggaeton and Afro-Cuban Movements. If you have been dancing for a while, come and see what is new and ask us all the questions you have. If you haven’t, come and try it for yourself and see how much fun it is.
