About
Brazilian, Cuban at heart.
Roberto grew up in Brazil and fell for Cuban salsa the first time he heard timba. Today he lives in Lisbon, teaching Cuban salsa, salsa on1 and timba styling at Jazzy Dance Studios.
In class, musicality comes first: hearing the clave, feeling the tumbao and turning it into movement. No memorised steps — real dancing.

Events
A lo cubanoOne Saturday a month.
A night of salsa, timba and son in the heart of Lisbon. Open-level class for everyone, then a deejay until midnight.
A lo cubano is a salsa social dedicated exclusively to Cuban music — no bachata, no kizomba. It opens with a free-steps class for anyone who wants to learn and ends with a packed floor. Organised with Sala Cubana and Jazzy Dance Studios.
