So fun!

This was a really fun experience! Our group wasn't particularly musically talented but Maluki taught us how to sound amazing using the Cajon. We had so much fun that I nearly forgot that we still had salsa lessons coming. Highly recommend.

SO FUN!!

This was such a unique and fun experience! Our group had an absolute blast meeting Maluki and learning how to play Cajon. It is a MUST book while you're here in Lima.

Must do for the vibes

Maluki is a good time and very passionate about music which makes this a fun experience. He throws in some interesting cultural details and overall this event helps you understand the origins of music and some method of dancing. I did it twice! Big tip: if you ask, he may even stay awhile after to allow the dancing to continue!

So fun!

Maluki was great! Had so much fun learning to play the Cajon (I have zero musical ability). Time flew by, fun from start to finish. He even made the salsa steps super easy to pick up. Didn't want it to end. Highly recommend

Vamos a bailar bebes!!

This was a great event! Maluki is super engaging and knew how to keep everyone (no matter their musical abilities) having fun the whole time. We learned about the history of the cajon and danced a ton! Can't believe this was only $20 tbh.
