About Ahora! LDO: Mission & Values
Welcome to the official Ahora! Latin Dance Organization webpage. Thank you for stopping by!
Ahora! is a student organization at UW-Milwaukee. On this webpage you will find information about Ahora!, pictures, videos, up-coming events, and other details.
Ahora! in Spanish means “now”. Now is the time to feel the rhythm of the congas. Now is the time to shake it to the maracas. Now is the time for AHORA!.
Ahora! was founded in early 2011. KiAnna Holland, a UW Milwaukee student, noticed an absence of Latin dance groups. She envisioned students being able to dance salsa, merengue, and bachata in a fun atmosphere. This idea transformed into the existence of organization that is the first latin dance group at UW-Milwaukee!
Mission:
Ahora!'s mission is to share Latin dance with its members. Latin dance is not just one genre, but several. Some are more well known than others, but AHORA! wants to share as many as possible.
General Information:
