Marta Martin:
Born in Habana, Cuba, Marta traveled to the United States in her late teens. She facilitates ecstatic dance waves, teaches Bellydance, nutrition, cooking, Spanish, and English as a Second Language. Her love and passion for the earth inspires her in the garden, where she grows food organically. Marta’s vision is to teach by example the love and acceptance of all people and cultures.
A message from MayaJoëlle:
Before I visited Cuba for the first time in 2017, I was under the impression that tourists were barely able to connect with the people of Cuba. When I co-organized with Marta a group to travel to Habana, to my surprise, we were able to stay in private homes booked through Airbnb. And we observed, first hand, the creativity and spirit of community of the Cuban people. The connections we experienced deeply touched my heart.
I loved discovering fascinating places in Havana and in the countryside of Cuba, enjoying the daily warm sun in February. Every day, we had direct and indirect contact with the people of the Island. Their warmth, aliveness and simplicity enchanted me. While I loved the numerous opportunities to use the little Spanish I know, we encountered people everywhere who spoke decent English. We were able to learn much about their lives and they about ours. To my delight, I didn’t experience the secrecy I was expecting months before.
We participated in dance classes, yet my favorite musical and dance moments were happening spontaneously in the streets and in restaurants while we ate, or in a small town where over 90% of the public was local. Viva Cuba!
I am ready to go back, with Marta. Won’t you join us?
