Rhythm runs through the veins of South America, with a myriad of dances being powerful artistic expressions of the continent’s culture and identity. There is nothing quite like watching a live dance show in South America and, if you feel inspired, there is no shortage of dance classes to get involved with too. Head to Rio de Janeiro to enjoy a riot of music, colour and spectacular dance moves at one of the many shows that can be caught across the city, or how about going for some tuition in Cartagena on the Colombian coast? With countless options you will be spoilt for choice!
