Juan de Dios Gala

   Juan de Dios was born in La Habana, Cuba. Since he remembers dance is part of the ever day life. It was not until the age of 16 when he became part of a local dance crew, performing their choreographies of several dance styles such as Afro-rumba, Son, Cha cha cha, Mambo...

   Learning from several prestigious dance teachers in Cuba has helped him to improve not only his dance skills, but also developing a particular methodology that he now applies at his classes.

   In October 2012 he moved to Belgrade, Serbia, where he started teaching and performing at several international  dance festivals like Havana en Belgrado, Belgrade Salsa Motion Weekend, Beogradski Latino Marathon, Salsa Split Silvester Nights…

   In May 2013 he co-founded Salsa Studio Beograd together with Serbian instructors where he teaches not only the steps of the Cuban Style, but also sometimes forgotten roots of salsa.
