From: Casineros Timba FestJoin the Casineros Timba Fest family where dance enthusiasts of all levels celebrate Hispanic and Latino culture through featured performances, instructional workshops, and finally a dance challenge. In addition, part of the revenues will be donated to a foundation or non-profit organization to help them continue their mission of informing, educating or supporting community.
Boot Camps:
Bootcamps and dance challenges will be offered in 3 categories: Casino Couples, Rueda de Casino , and Timbaton. Each boot camp session will be lead by a mentor coach, who will provide feedback and help participants prepare to showcase their skills in a dance challenge.

Dancers will be recognized for their effort and creativity by a set of qualified judges using set criteria in an impartial and objective manner.
