CLDC was founded in 2001, in Charlotte, NC to fulfill the aspirations of Latin American children their families who expressed an interest in preserving their Hispanic heritage of traditional music and dances, as well as to share this heritage with others.
The Carolina’s Latin Dance Company is a non-profit organization that employs the most authentic representation of Latin American folkloric dance to promote cultural acceptance and understanding.
Our objective is to provide opportunities for cultural enrichment through performances and lectures that bring together not only people of Latin American backgrounds, but people of all cultures. This creates an enjoyable environment of mixed cultures and traditions, where the community can learn about each other, while cultural awareness and acceptance is also promoted.
