Instructor Training Workshops

A full instructor training workshop includes a master class and a certification seminar. Typically, workshops are held over a weekend, beginning Friday night and continuing through Sunday afternoon.  An example schedule would be the following: 

  • Friday     : Master Class from 7:00pm-8:30pm
  • Saturday : Certification class from 9:00am-5:00pm (Master Class may also be from 9:00am-10:00am)
  • Sunday    : Certification class from 9:00am-4:00pm

Only instructors that register with us are eligible to attend a certification class.  It's important for us to get registrations in advance so that we bring the right amount of classroom materials with us.  We would be delighted if you'd like to host a workshop but we don't want you think that it's as simple as making a phone call.  There is a little work involved in hosting one of our master classes.  We will give you some guidance, but you will be responsible for promoting the event and making sure that participants get registered.  We recognize that you have to invest a few hours of work to have a successful workshop, so we intend to reward you if possible based on the number of attendees.  Rewards for hosting are determined on a case by case basis, but we will work them out with you in writing before you commit to hosting a full workshop.  Please contact us for details.

Master Class

A master class can be fun all on its own.  You may not want to host a full workshop and just want to see what the buzz is about.  Or perhaps you want to test the waters in your area to see if there is enough interest to host a full workshop. 

We can help you put together a master class for a flat fee, which will be determined by your location.  Again, we can give you some guidance, but you will be responsible for promoting the event and making sure that participants get registered.  Contact us below for details. 

Group Rate

We generally provide group discounts for workshops when groups of 10 or more contact us for a special rate.  All members of a group must register at the same time with a single deposit to qualify as a group registration.  

Registration Includes :

  • 2 days of training with International Master Trainer Tanya

  • Official Training Manual (How to teach Macumba Land of Dance®)

  • CD (of the music used in the DVD)

  • DVD (Provides over 1 hour of choreography matching the music on the CD)
