Bio for Maiensy Sanchez
Maiensy began teaching
popular Cuban music and dance while working at the Instituto Tecnologico
y de Estudios Superiores (TEC) de Monterrey, Mexico, in 1996. She
created and developed a curriculum for the International Programs
department’s exchange students. In 1999, she pioneered the Cuban style
of dance instruction in the Seattle area. As a born-and-raised Cuban,
and having grown up in a family of stage artists, she adds her first-hand
experience to a class environment that is as meaningful as it is
entertaining. Her teaching style incorporates her background in
socio-cultural anthropology and 13 years of professional music training.
Her teaching method draws from her biological father, an established
stage actor, and her father Fernando Alonso, creator of the Cuban School
of Ballet and one of the founders of the Ballet Nacional de Cuba, both
currently on the island. Maiensy has received training in ballet, jazz,
modern dance, flamenco and West African dance. She has performed at the
New Orleans International Ballet Conference (as dance partner/assistant
to master Roberto Borrell) and a number of local venues, including
Benaroya Hall.
