“Dancing Life” is a current personal project by photographer Mayra Roubach.

After moving to Miami in 2009 and delving into her photography career, Cuba became a recurrent subject of inspiration for Mayra not only because of its unique history, almost like and intersection in time between the past, present and future, but also because of its amazing similarities to Brazil, her country of origin.

This collection of images depicts the dancers of the famous Tropicana Club in Havana in their dazzle, beautiful yet complicated performances. Perhaps a truthful representation of their own lives in Cuba.

For many, Tropicana Club was the ultimate symbol of the glory days in Cuba. Nowadays they run an important dance school that attracts thousands of young men and women from all over Cuba, who work and dance hard for a chance to live their dream in a country where dreams are usually shattered.

Mayra’s first visit to Havana was in 2011. She plans to return by 2015.

Mayra Roubach is a freelance photographer with a strong passion for story telling. She sees the world in little stories and is always looking for ways to capture the relationships between people, places and their culture, with a natural and realistic approach.
