What is ESCAPE?
Join us on the holiday of a lifetime on the sunny island of Fuerteventura at Playitas Resort Sport Hotel. ESCAPE is a dance-focused holiday produced by Impact Dance who have been running dance holidays since 2005. It caters for all abilities and also welcomes non-dancers who want to be in the presence of positive people. The experience enables you to have everything at your fingertips: Exercise, partying, fun and relaxation all on one resort.
DANCE DANCE DANCE…
ESCAPE is the only holiday of its kind to focus on dance styles from the African diaspora – Hip Hop, Dancehall, Afro-beat, Jazz and contemporary African. Classes are led by professional dance teachers who are accompanied by live drums & high profile DJ’s.
MIND BODY SOUL…
It is designed to be a unique, invigorating and holistic mind body and soul experience to suit anyones needs, and for this reason we incorporate sea-view yoga classes.
We want to ensure you feel great during your time with us (and beyond) by surrounding yourself with positivity and opportunities to increase your mental and physical wellness.
Teachers & Classes
We take pride in the class program being the focal point of the holiday. There are over 25 classes that are spread over for specific days and the invitation is, you can do as much or as little as you choose.
Classes are on a first come, first served basis and they last 50 minutes.
