    Instructor, choreographer, and director of ClaveConChi, Kelly Brown
    hails from the West Coast, specifically Seattle, Stanford, and, as a
    child, Kailua, Hawaii. His passion for Latin dance links back to those
    early bodily immersions in the ocean and tropical life, whose rhythms
    later found a natural expression in Latin percussion and the syncopated
    dialogues of salsa, which he's been exploring for over 20 years, and a
    dozen of them sharing his enthusiasm and skills as a Latin dance
    instructor in St. Louis.
    Kelly's style draws not only from
    the L.A. influence out West, but from lengthy travels to the salsa
    hotspots of Cuba, Colombia, Costa Rica and Mexico, New York City and
    Miami, blending the best of different bases with the spice of contrast.
    As both musician and dancer, and even just one lucky enough to know the
    rhythmic power of the sea, Kelly believes that to dance deeply and
    fully, one must be both grounded in fundamental techniques and afloat
    on the flowing and surprising moment which builds, with the always
    evolving energy of your partner, the playful, ecstatic, even spiritual
    experience of synergy-what, in brief, we mean by ClaveConChi.
    ClaveConChi
    means
    to attune you to the multifaceted energies of the dance, and the magic
    that can happen when two people explore this oceanic flow together.
    Joined by his partner Michele Jianakoplos, together they bring the best
    of musicality and passion and sharp technique to the street salsa
    scene, performing and teaching for groups as large as 200 at corporate
    events, salsa congresses and festivals around the mid-west, while
    keeping a regular schedule of on-going group and private classes.
    Conveying respect & excitement for the dance, with encouragement
    & humor they effectively pass on the skills and attitudes that
    create excellent, expressive social dancers.
    At ClaveConChi
    we explore "street salsa," an endorphin-loaded social event and
    celebration of rhythmic interaction, as well as other Latin dances,
    such as merengue, bachata, cha-cha-cha, Afro-Cuban rumba, street samba,
    mambo On2, and rueda de casino. ClaveConChi is dedicated to making it
    healthy as well, by promoting salsa at smoke-free venues such as The
    Atomic Cowboy, and to deepening appreciation of the music, history and
    culture from which the dance has sprung through articles and
    presentations as well as their dynamic choreography and passionate
    performances.
