Chile Cuequero and GAM offer two massive urban cueca classes aimed at people who are interested in learning about our national culture, through dance and national music.
The massive cueca classes aim to contribute to the visibility and validation of this national dance as part of our heritage, recognizing its fundamental role in the construction of both individual and collective identity.
Héctor Arapio and Bárbara León will be the teachers in charge of teaching the classes. Both have extensive experience in the cuequero field, aimed at dance and music.
Héctor Arapio, in addition to teaching classes throughout the year at “La Casa de la Cueca”, is a member of the cuequera band "Voy y Vuelvo". In the case of Bárbara León, in addition to dancing on various stages and teaching classes, she belongs to the Santiago Folklore Company.
Together they founded the “Chile Cuequero” project and created the “Chile Cuequero” YouTube channel, a space dedicated 100% to the national dance that was born in May 2017 with the aim of making known the feelings of the dancers, the places where Cueca is practiced, learned and, above all, lived.
