Atlanta Falcons host Salsa Dancing in celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month
In celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month, the Atlanta Falcons hosted an afternoon of Latin dance classes with youth from the Boys and Girls Club of Metro Atlanta.
On Tuesday, September 28 Atlanta Falcons Rob Agnone, Harvey Dahl, Garrett Reynolds, Jose Valdez, Vance Walker and Joe Zelenka traded in their cleats for dancing shoes! At the Academy Ballroom Cumberland, twenty youth had the opportunity to receive expert Latin dance instruction from Matthew Gann, Co-Owner and Dance Instructor, and Angela Harris. The youth learned the cha-cha, salsa and merengue dances alongside Atlanta Falcons players and cheerleaders. The group learned each dance through group instruction, then paired up to practice their dances together. Each child received a Futbol Americano t-shirt and Falcons water bottle.
