This salsa evening at Halle Tropisme brings together a live initiation class and a full live band performance. Héléna Sarzier leads a salsa initiation session from 19:30 to 20:30 to give beginners the foundations before the party begins.
After the class, the group Matatumba takes to the stage for a live salsa set, accompanied by vocalist Héléna Sarzier. The event is designed to welcome all levels and generations in a shared, joyful atmosphere.
Matatumba was founded by Ramon Recio, a Nîmes-born percussionist and composer who trained extensively in Latin music and made multiple trips to Cuba to deepen his knowledge. The group's repertoire blends classic salsa influences with original compositions.
