Summary

Children in Medellin, receive dance classes every week. They learn respect and good treatment with their classmates. They generate bonds of friendship and are happy to have the dance as part of their lives. They want to be good dancers, but more than that, they want to live in peace, surrounded by love and opportunities. In each class, they learn from their teachers and also occupy their free time healthy, away from drugs, crime, violence and abuse. This project is a great opportunity for them.
