Professional Dancer, Instructor
Ryan has been surrounded with music since he was a child. Born in Guatemala, then started discovering his amazing potential since he arrived in Canada in 2019. He has had the opportunity to meet great dancers and reside with them since he began his adventure in this industry. Since then, his environment, his friends, and his social settings have all been associated with music and dance. This got him very involved with Bachata, Salsa, and Merengue. Having great teachers and friends like Eduardo Esteban (Lalo), gave him the extra push to be the dancer that he is today. Since then, Ryan has participated in different congresses such as, Canada Salsa Congress, taking home great placings.
In 2021, he decided to focus on the Durham region and started teaching the passion of Salsa and Bachata at Durham College. Over the past year, Ryan has taught and inspired over 100 students. He then branched out to teach at a variety of events around the Durham area.
With his unique style, charisma, and good humour, Ryan will allow you to see that dancing is a great way of expressing joy and having fun at the same time while you are dancing.
Why have we decided to dance at Easter Seals?
Our studio is excited to have the opportunity to work with the community of Durham. We are privileged to be a part of this endeavour with Easter Seals to empower individuals with physical disabilities in efforts to reach their full potential. We believe that dance can convey powerful messages through movement. Let’s bring our communities together to celebrate life and dance!
