Take It Further

Performance Team

Ready to go beyond the social floor? Mayimbito is our performance team — a committed group of dancers who train together, compete, and represent Eugene's Latin dance community at regional festivals.

What to Expect

Joining the performance team means greater commitment than regular classes — more rehearsal time, higher technical standards, and the discipline of stage performance. In return, you get an experience that's hard to replicate: the thrill of performing for an audience, the camaraderie of a tight-knit team, and real measurable artistic growth.

Where We Perform

  • 🌊 Tri-Cities Salsa Congress
