We will also welcome for the first time, Soles del Peru, a Peruvian folklore dance group from Edinburgh who will be performing a dance from Cusco. Cusco is not far from the Azul Wasi home. The dance group’s objective ”is to represent our beautiful country through the typical dances of the coastal mountains and jungle of Peru”.

In addition, Yamil Cuedo Ferrera, former Cuban dancer from Ballet Folklorico Cutumba dance company, Santiago de Cuba (now based in Edinburgh) will be spicing up the dance floor with his fun and energetic animations !!

Hope you can all join us and celebrate 21 years of the Azul Wasi (formerly Blooming Colibri) homes and Latin Quarter fund raising classes & events. Come and spice up your life !
