If Cities Could Dance: Austin, TX / Salsa
When salsa dancers Audrey Guerrero and Angie Egea first got together, their love opened up new expressions and possibilities both on the dance floor and off. In Austin, Texas, this non-binary couple performs and teaches classes that break down traditional gender roles in salsa dancing. While traditionally a man leads and a woman follows, these dancers take turns leading and following and often switch roles within a dance. Part of the "If Cities Could Dance" series.
