Salsa Beginners

This course is designed for absolute beginners to Salsa. You will learn very basic footwork, turns, patterns, shines and be introduced to proper posture, weight transfer, frame and connection. The class will introduce you to basics of leading and following, salsa music and timing. The timing will connect your footwork and body movement with the music.


Salsa Intermediate

This course is designed for students who are confident with the Salsa rhythm and are familiar with basic turn patterns such as Enchufla, Dile que no, Cross body lead, El Uno, El Dos, Sombrero, etc. In this course, we will focus on more advanced turn patters as well as styling for both men and women. We will also focus on body isolations and some shines. If you have completed the Beginners' term and are confident to move on to more advanced stuff, then Intermediate is the right course for you!


Salsa Advance

This course is designed specifically for "Advanced Cuban Style" Salsa students, who have been actively dancing this beautiful style of Salsa for one year or more. In this course, we will teach partner work, styling and advanced moves including dips, drops and tricks. At the same time, we will also be teaching advanced Cuban Style partner moves as well as Rueda moves; with an increased focus on technique.


Casino Rueda

Casino Rueda is a Cuban form of salsa often described as “Salsa in a Circle”. Building on the basic salsa step, it combines new turn patterns with a rotational movement of the whole circle, exchanging partners continually throughout the song. It is a great way to interact with other people, have fun and add variety to your salsa at the same time!


Revolutionary Reggaeton Fitness

A class consisting of short introductions to the basics of many latin dances including Reggaeton, Salsa, Cha Cha, Rumba, Merengue, Lambada, Samba, Reggae, Bachata, Cumbia and more. The pace is continuous to keep the heart pumping and give you an all over body workout while at the same time enjoy the rhythms of hot latin music. Loose weight, get fit and stay in shape. Easy enough for everyone to follow!


Bellydance Beginners

This class is designed for everyone, and for anyone who has never taken a dance class before. In this class the students will learn the fundamentals of belly dance movement. This class introduces the student to basic belly dance movements, body isolations, and arm and hand placement. Lots of individual help and precise instruction.
