Cuban Weekend with Osmani
Segura You can’t miss this opportunity
to dance Cuban Salsa in
Bulgaria.
Date: 08 - 09 Sep 2018.
Place: Plovdiv, Bulgaria
Plovdiv Cultural Institute
Ivan Perpeliev Street 5
Tickets: 5€ - 40€
27 INTERNATIONAL SALSA MAGAZINEAre you ready for a cuban weekend filled with lots of
dancing, new people and great fun?
On 09.08 and 09.09.2018 we have the pleasure to
welcome, for the first time in Bulgaria, the cuban
dancer, teacher and choreographer Osmani Segura, who
will give Salsa, Afro-cuban Body Isolation lessons for
everybody.
Here is some information about him:
Osmani was born in ‘Habana Vieja’, a very special barrio
of Havana, Cuba. He began his dancing journey at age
16 in Cuba.
Since then, the street was his main school and the
stage became his second home. He was a member of
several dance companies in Cuba, allowing him to
improve his knowledge of dances like, Rumba, Afro-
Cuban Body Isolation, Mambo, Cha Cha Chá and other
traditional cuban dances, as well as Casino de Calle
(also known as Salsa Cuban Style) and international
dances like Samba and Hip-Hop.
His career as a teacher started back in Cuba in
2002. In 2006 he became a member of the
german hip-hop crew ‘Just blaze’ led by Camillo
Lauricella and with them became a German
Hip-Hop Champion. Since 2010 he provides his
knowledge to his students, all the way from
beginners to stage performer level. Together
with his dance groups “Los Freakos” or the
“Latin Instinct Dance Company” Osmani has
already taught and performed on stage at
several Salsa congresses in Germany and
Europe and since 2013 he also performs as
soloist!

TOROS Y SALSA
-
DAX.
SEPTEMBER
7TH-9TH, 2018
Dax - France.
Tickets: 25€ - 90€
Toros y Salsa was born in 1995
from the shared passion of
two amateurs for the fiesta
“brava". This adjective, which
is part of the vocabulary of
bullfighting, refers to the
bravery and caste of the bull. It
is also used by salseros to
characterize authentic and
uncompromising music. From
this analogy, was born the idea
to create a marriage of heart
between these two cultures.
The festival owes its unique
identity to its original
programming based on
discoveries, creations and the
now famous "descargas".
A village of casetas serves as
a showcase for the stage and
allows all audiences to eat or
share a drink in a friendly
atmosphere throughout these
3 days of free concerts. From
September 7th to 9th, Dax will
meet you for a new musical
escapade on the shores of the
Adour and in the shade of the
paths of the Théodore Denis
Park with the swaying rhythms
of salsa.

JOSÉ PERÉZHay muchas personas que se desenvuelven en
el ámbito musical ya sea artistas, maestros,
promotores, entre otros que consiguen sus
metas mediante el trabajo duro,
perseverancia y amor a la realización de su
sueño.
En esta ocasión conoceremos a Jimena
Verano León, quien nació en 1974 (44 años)
en Bogotá, Colombia. Nos menciona que a
partir de sus 5 años es salsera gracias a su
padre que es músico, quien trabajo con
prestigiosas Orquestas Colombianas que
marcaron su gusto musical, entre los temas
que más le agradaron están “El Gran
Combo”, “Richie Ray” y “Andy Montañez”.
A partir de sus 15 años comenzó sus estudios
de solfeo en “La Sinfónica Juvenil de Bogotá”,
JIMENA
pero un año después decidió seguir sus
estudios básica, secundaria para luego ser
administradora de empresas y así comenzar
VERANO
a dirigir su propio negocio, a parir del 2014
creó el “VERANOPRODUCCIONES”, refiere
que a pesar las difíciles situaciones que se le
presentaron en su vida estas no la
detuvieron a seguir adelante, dándole más
fuerzas en su negocio musical.
LEÓN
BY KARINA BERNALES
El objetivo principal de su empresa es representar y promocionar
nuevos artistas a nivel internacional. Nos menciona que cuenta con
un canal de vídeos conocido como “SALSA CÁMARA” y con una
revista musical llamada “TÚ VOZ LATINA COLOMBIA” la cual está
por salir al mercado; ambos se utilizan para promocionar a los
cantantes y agrupaciones latinos.
Lo más importante para ella en la vida son: su hijo, los artistas y su
país, al cual quiere hacer llegar muy alto a nivel mundial, mostrando
como ejemplo a la gente luchadora y trabajadora en esta área,
donde todo es posible con perseverancia y mente positiva.
