About Cuban Groove
As three times World Professional Salsa Champions, and winners of the World Open Universal and Imperial Latin American Championships, Chris and Jaci are the founding members of Cuban Groove, the innovative and hugely successful Salsa dance company.
Their extraordinary talent led them to win the prestigious World Professional Salsa Championships three times – the only non Latin Americans ever to win this title. Chris and Jaci had the honour of being the first non Cubans to perform at the world famous Cabaret Tropicana in Havana, an event of such enormity their performance was broadcast worldwide through major news networks including CNN, the BBC and Reuters.
Their dance expertise led them to choreograph the first ever professional and celebrity group dance for BBC’s massively successful ‘Strictly Come Dancing’. The jaw-dropping dance moves made such an impact that they were invited to coach aspiring dancers for BBC’s ‘Strictly Dance Fever’.
Chris and Jaci’s talent shone when they starred in the spectacular ‘Burn The Floor’ arena show, bringing their blistering hot dance moves to music written by Sir Elton John. They fronted a national tour of the magnificent and hugely popular interactive show ‘Cubanite’, where they taught over 10,000 people to Salsa Cuban style
