I don’t know any resources online and the only resource I know about is a book called Dance a While.  It contains dances from all over the world plus some dance history and is written with dance educators in mind.  Although it’s geared for the college level,  you might find some useful material or it could be a starting point for ideas.  

An inter-library loan may work and save you some bucks.

You may also want to consider introducing musical ideas especially drums and grooves from south of the border.  I don’t know what age group you teach but there’s a ton of resources online on how to 1) make simple drums and 2) teach basic rhythms to kids.

Look up the cajon. 

There are squares that were done/are done by folks south of the border.

Hello Folks,


I am a caller in Minnesota, and I also happen to be a Spanish teacher. I am embarrassed to say that I don't teach dance to my students. Does anyone have any great resources that they would recommend that would help me delve into the world of Latin American dance? I am aware that traditional dance varies quite a bit regionally, but I'm willing to start anywhere that's accessible and fun to do in a mixed group!
