This massive convent was a thriving community of nuns from 1736 until the 1773 earthquake, after which it was abandoned. Now open to the public, tranquil gardens, sparse nuns’ cells and a terrific view from the roof make this a popular attraction.

"There are so many good things to say about Gloria and her classes that it is hard to decide where to begin. I took some classes with her to start dancing Salsa - and it was so much fun that I stayed much longer in Antigua than I initially planned.
She teaches you excellent techniques and a good st..."yle that you can use in all figures that you learn afterwards. Also, it is sooo much more relaxed for a woman to have a female dancing teacher (I had male teachers afterwards and they all wanted more than just to dance - and Gloria leads excellently, too). And sometimes, she introduces you to other salsa students which can turn out to be a very special encounter :)

"I took classes with Nancy and Gloria for more than a week and enjoyed it to the fullest!
In the meantime, it seems that Gloria is going solo - you will find her under SALSACONGLORIA, in another location in Antigua.
Gloria teaches you an excellent style and technique, which makes her classes m..."ore than helpful, but also challenging in the beginning - you have to care about the steps, your head, your posture, your hands and your hip movements at the same time. Nevertheless it is always a lot of fun! And learning it right from the beginning makes the lessons afterwards much easier :)
Nancy is as well a good teacher. Her classes seemed easier to me, as she mainly teaches you the steps and new combinations - so you feel like you are learning very fast. Besides Salsa, I also learned Bachata from her, which was a lot of fun as well. She also introduced me to the Salsa scene of Antigua at night, so I could practice for hours every day :)

"I took a "From Bean to Bar Workshop" with Pablo and it was one of the best experiences of my 6 months of travelling! I love chocolate and there I learned everything about its history and its production - and we tried it all: we made tea from the cacao husks, the cacao drink of the Maya, the chocolat..."e drink of the Spaniards - and in the end, we created our own little chocolate memories :)
