Have you ever dreamed of training and performing with a world champion? This February, Vernon Salsa presents an exclusive 3-day, 6-hour salsa performance bootcamp with 6-time World Salsa Champion Paulina Posadas.
This immersive experience is designed for committed male and female dancers ready to elevate their craft. Participants will learn a complete, professionally crafted salsa choreography directly from Paulina, with a strong focus on:
- Technique
- Musicality
- Styling
- Stage presence
The experience culminates in a live performance with Paulina at Baila Vernon: Winter Carnival Edition — a rare opportunity in the Okanagan.
⚠️ This is a small, curated performance experience (not a drop-in workshop).
About Paulina Posadas
Born in Morelia, Mexico, Paulina Posadas discovered her passion for dance at an early age. At 15, she began training in bailes de salón, quickly expanding into classical ballet, jazz, gymnastics, and later ballroom, tango, acting, singing, musical theatre, and hip-hop across Mexico, the United States, Canada, and Italy.
At just 18, she was invited to partner with renowned instructor Carlos Carmona, director of the Salsabor Dance Company in Mexico City. That same year, Paulina won her first national title at the 2005 Acapulco Salsa Congress, igniting an international career.
Paulina is a member of the prestigious Dream Team, alongside world champions Rafael Barros & Carine Morais, Karen Forcano & Ricardo Vega, and David Zepeda.
Today, Paulina Posadas is a world-renowned salsa dancer, teacher, coach, judge and choreographer, having taught thousands of dancers in over 30 countries worldwide.
She is the current and undefeated 6× Salsa On2 World Champion.
