Played for the Cuban National Ballet. My name is Luis and I am from Cuba but I have been living and working as a musician and teacher around Asia for over 15 years. In my free time I love to be in nature, especially swimming in the ocean. I also enjoy riding my bike, playing football or doing yoga. Exercising helps me to stay healthy and relaxed. However, music is my passion. I have been playing percussion since I was 9 years old and I still study so that I continue to improve. In the evenings, I play the drums, Conga, and sing in my band Luna Negra. When I am not working as a musician I like to dance Salsa with my friends or watch films. When I am feeling inspired, I also write songs.
