Photo by Ana Lorena EDITORIAL So, President Obama, Michelle and the kids came for Spring Break to Havana, mother in law in tow to keep an eye on things. As if that wasn’t enough, two days after they left, the largest rock band in the world played to 1 200 000 people in the biggest and best music concert Havana has seen in a generation. I loved the mix from the young cool reggaetonero to the pensioners whose last concert was before the young hipsters were born. And before anyone says anything about has-beens who stick around for too long, hats off to the incredible Mick Jagger who at age 72 can still move around a stage like no one else. This issue is taking as its inspiration Mick’s moves on the dance floor and covering Dance in Cuba in its entirety. The starting point is Havana City in Motion: Modern Dance Festival in Old Havana, one of Havana’s truly best festivals that brings alive the old city with a riotous assemble of performances from around the world (April 6-19, 2016). This is run by the incomparable Isabel Bustos, who is a true spitfire in her own right. Staying on a modern bent, the Havana Queens Party is something to behold as is the incredibly talented Miguel Iglesias’ Danza Contemporánea. Turning to the more traditional, we pay a visit to the house of Rumba in Havana’s Cayo Hueso district and review Conjunto Folklórico Nacional de Cuba. Coming back to the house of salsa, we strongly recommend Ritmo Cuba’s Salsa Festival, which mixes the best of Cuban salsa dancers with a strong international contingent. Salsa’s Coming Home! Moving to Spanish dance, where better to start than with an army of little girls in long skirts, a story that goes a long way to explaining the profound talent, which appears later on as shown, by Irene Rodríguez. Our dance section closes out with the two titans of Cuban ballet, Alicia Alonso and Carlos Acosta. Past and Present. The Gran Teatro de la Habana has just reopened following a loving restoration and has been named after the Grand Dame of Cuba. Carlos has come back to Cuba after many years starring with the Royal London Ballet Company and is presenting his own company: Acosta Danza. So what are you waiting you? Get your dancing shoes on and go show what you’ve got! Abrazos! The LaHabana.com Team About our new look In January we introduced our new logo, look and feel.

It was Calvin Political analysts have been endlessly studying Coolidge, or “Silent Cal” as the American press what was said, what wasn’t said and what could be dubbed him, who came in 1928. In those days, read between the lines of every utterance of this relations between the governments of Cuba and its northern neighbor were fairly uneventful even though the Cuban President Gerardo Machado had extended his mandate “a la cañona” by having any opposition murdered left, right and center. This time was different. On December 17, 2014, presidents Barack Obama and Raúl Castro proclaimed what until then had seemed impossible: reestablishing the diplomatic ties that had been broken over 50 years ago and heralding the start of a long and winding road towards normalization of relations between the two countries. The presence on the Island of the first Afro-American in the White House bore testimony to the seriousness of the agreement and per se, represented something positive for Cuba. From the reestablishing of diplomatic relations until Photos by Ana Lorena very eloquent US President, so very different from his illustrious but silent predecessor who didn’t have the advantages offered by teleprompters. I would prefer to go by what I heard him say: that the United States was extending a friendly hand to the Cubans, that Cubans should be able to decide their future without any meddling, that areas for working together should be found and that we should be respectfully discussing our differences, that he would continue to ask Congress to eliminate the “embargo” (blockade we call it over here…). His words seem to erase, with the flick of a pen, centuries of imperial gluttony. He also talked about his concept of freedom, democracy and human rights and he clearly talked about intentions to “empower” those of us who would like to make up a new social class. Whether or not he will do what he promised, or whether his successor in the Oval Office will maintain the same intentions, only time will tell. For the time being, there will be some new business, less fear for US allies to invest in the country of yesterday’s “diabolical” Castro Brothers, waves of tourists who want to see the island before its culture becomes absorbed by the US (it seems that they don’t know that Cuba was a neo-colony and its culture was strong and authentic enough to survive then) and perhaps there will be better opportunities to connect with the rest of the world.

It challenges the notion of a “great divide” between Republic and Revolution by tracing contentious interactions between technocrats, politicians, and financial elites on one hand, and mobilized, mostly-Afro-descended tenants and shantytown residents on the other hand. The dynamics of housing inequality in Havana not only reflected existing socio- racial hierarchies but also produced and reconfigured them in ways that have not been systematically researched.

CECILIA NOCILLI Universidad de Granada Beyond Dance: Analysis, Historiography, and Redefinitions The anthology Transatlantic Malagueñas and Zapateados in Music, Song and Dance: Spaniards, Natives, Africans, Roma opens with a suggestive image of Ruth St. Denis and Ted Shawn in La Malagueña of 1921, which synthesizes the identity of the publication: an exploration of the transatlantic journeys of Spanish dance and its exotic fascination. The image thus manifests the opposition between the maja and the manolo (tough girl and tough guy), as between the Andalusian woman and the bullfighter. In their introduction, Meira Goldberg, Walter Aaron Clark and Antoni Pizà highlight the relationship between this anthology and an earlier volume on the fandango as a clearly mestizo, or hybridized, dance form blending African, European, and American influences: The Global Reach of the Fandango in Music, Song and Dance: Spaniards, Indians, Africans and Gypsies (Música Oral del Sur vol.

El Corazon de Cuba Educational Program Curriculum Small group, multidiscipline, educational program. The objective of the program is to strengthen your knowledge to better enable you to participate in important public policy discussion on a wide range of topics that affect your life. The program provides and opportunities to comparing and contrasting the work environment, quality of life, social programs, political structure and policies, economic policy and structure, environment, and culture that you are familiar with, to those of Cuba. Day-to-day, on an ongoing basis throughout the program there will be opportunities to meet people, small group discussion with Cubans and excursions and presentations on history, architecture, culture, ethnic diversity, social systems, gender rights and roles, politics, agriculture, mining, industry, fisheries, music, language, religion, geology, botany, and ecology. The following curriculum fails to include literally hundreds of serendipitous people-to-people encounters when we purposefully visit small towns and villages to by snacks and refreshment to talk to people, and ask questions and strike up conversations. Ironically, some of the most meaningful and enlightening people-to-people contacts are the hardest, and virtually impossible, to document.

EMBODIED IDENTITIES: NEGOTIATING THE SELF THROUGH FLAMENCO DANCE by PAMELA ANN CALTABIANO Under the Direction of Emanuela Guano ABSTRACT Drawing on ethnographic research conducted in Atlanta, this study analyzes how transnational practices of, and discourse about, flamenco dance contribute to the performance and embodiment of gender, ethnic, and national identities. It argues that, in the context of the flamenco studio, women dancers renegotiate authenticity and hybridity against the backdrop of an embodied “exot- ic” passion.

  • How Cuba Produces Some of the Best Ballet Dancers in the World by Noël Duan December 14, 2015 9:01 PM
    http://news.yahoo.com/how-cuba-produces-some-of-the-best-ballet-dancers-020100947.html How Cuba Produces Some of the Best Ballet Dancers in the World By Noël Duan December 14, 2015 9:01 PM Recent graduates of the Ballet Nacional de Cuba School performing at the National Theater of Cuba in Havana in February 2015. (Photo: Getty Images) This story is part of a weeklong Yahoo series marking one year since the opening of relations between the United States and Cuba. Cuba is well known for many forms of dance, from the mambo and the tango to salsa, the cha- cha and the rumba. But only ballet enthusiasts know that the dance form is one of the country’s biggest cultural exports. In Cuba, ballet is just as popular as baseball, a sport where players from the Cuban national team regularly defect to the major leagues in the United States. Unlike in the United States, where ballet is generally considered highbrow art and Misty Copeland is the only ballerina with a household name, the Cuban government funds ballet training and subsidizes tickets to ballet performances. “Taxi drivers know who the principal dancers are,” Lester Tomé, a dance professor at Smith College and former dance critic in Cuba and Chile, tells Yahoo Beauty. Like Cuban baseball players, Cuban ballet dancers have made international marks around the world, from Xiomara Reyes, the recently retired principal dancer at New York City’s American Ballet Theatre to London’s English National Ballet ballet master Loipa Araújo, regarded as one of the “four jewels of Cuban ballet.” In September 2005, Erika Kinetz wrote in the New York Times that “training, especially Cuban training, has been a key driver of the Latinization of ballet,” an important note, considering that European ballet companies dominated the dance world for decades.

Through an extensive review of information on Cuban herpetofauna, including protected area management plans, we present the first comprehensive inventory of introduced amphibians and reptiles in the Cuban archipelago. We classify species as Invasive, Established Non-invasive, Not Established, and Transported. We document the arrival of 26 species, five amphibians and 21 reptiles, in more than 35 different introduction events. Of the 26 species, we identify 11 species (42.3%), one amphibian and 10 reptiles, as established, with nine of them being invasive: Lithobates catesbeianus, Caiman crocodilus, Hemidactylus mabouia, H. angulatus, H. frenatus, Gonatodes albogularis, Sphaerodactylus argus, Gymnophthalmus underwoodi, and Indotyphlops braminus. We present the introduced range of each of the 26 species in the Cuban archipelago as well as the other Caribbean islands and document historical records, the population sources, dispersal pathways, introduction events, current status of distribution, and impacts.
