  • If you’re not sure which class to go in, just ask an instructor when you arrive and they’ll point you in the right direction. Remember it is not a race!  Enjoy the process! Quality over quantity always!
  • No partner needed & BEGINNERS VERY WELCOME
What are the Workshops or Bonus Classes?

These are for people with a little knowledge of dancing and the salsa social styles already.

Sample other exciting dance styles from the salsa scene in our workshops/bonus classes, including Bachata, Merengue, Reggaeton, Rueda De Casino, Kizomba, Cha Cha Cha and more...

We will be bringing you workshops on rotation where you get to learn other dance styles and techniques to complement your Cuban Salsa and freestyle abilities. All on block rotations so you get a good enough understanding and solid base with the fundamentals and build on these with each with more complex and fun sequences so that you can take away and us each style with ease along side your salsa on the social dance floor.

  • What levels do you teach? We teach all levels - BEGINNERS fundamentals / BEGINNERS / IMPROVERS / INTERMEDIATE and above. We also teach private lessons at all levels, if you want to improve your skills or gain some confidence. 
  • What do I wear?
