RDM
Rueda Del Mundo
What is
RDM?
RDM (Rueda Del Mundo) is without a doubt one of the most energetic performance groups in the UK. They are also the proud Winners of the Amsterdam International Stargate Competition 2019.
Founded in 2009 by Moe Flex, Fadi K & Anwar Azari, Rueda del Mundo took the country by storm, becoming the most renowned and successful dance schools, and the home of Rueda in the UK.
Due to the popularity of the teachers & the high demand for their participation in international events, the school took a temporary break in 2011 until it was regenerated in 2014 by Fadi K. Following the initial vision of making RDM a performance school, Fadi K revived RDM to form a performance group of dancers which currently perform in the UK and tour with him internationally.
The team is open to advanced dancers looking to improve their technique as well as performance skill. Rehearsals and auditions are run at our tuesdays venue. Mazenod Social Club NW6 4LS
