Yesenia has been studying, teaching, and performing Afro-Cuban dance for over 25 years.
With a warm and dynamic teaching style, she has led workshops in the United States, Europe, and Latin America, in dance studios,
cultural centers, spiritual retreats, and university settings.
As a performer of traditional genres, her stage presence is thrilling, fiercely beautiful, and transmits loving authenticity.
Her original performance work, on the other hand, discards the boundaries between folklore, theater, performer/spectator,
identity, ritual, and embodied transformation.
