Rhythms of Unity: The Global Merengue Movement

Merengue, the vibrant and infectious dance rhythm originating from the Dominican Republic, serves as a powerful symbol of unity and cultural convergence. This project celebrates merengue as a unifying force that transcends racial and cultural boundaries, bringing together people of diverse backgrounds—black, white, mulatto, taíno, and mestizo—through its irresistible beats and melodies.

Rooted in a history of blending African, European, and Indigenous influences, merengue embodies the spirit of collaboration and mutual respect. Our mission is to harness this rich musical tradition to promote social cohesion and celebrate the beauty of diversity. Through community events, dance workshops, and collaborative performances, we aim to create spaces where individuals can connect, share their stories, and move harmoniously.

Join us in this dynamic exploration of merengue as more than just a dance—a movement towards a more inclusive and united world. Let's dance to the rhythm of unity, where every step brings us closer to a future of shared joy and understanding.
