TUES 11th August @ the Deaf Hub.
FAST TRACK your dance journey ! After a 2nd bootcamp you should be ready to hit the dance floor at socials !

open to those who attended the first salsa bootcamp and to anyone who ha the basic salsa steps already or to improvers who want to refresh skills. LEVEL 2 salsa bootcamp is NOT for total beginners, its for those who have already done the basic steps and turns.

in level 2 salsa we will continue from the first bootcamp and learn how to lead / follow in more foundation steps, turns and sequences.

What to expect :

The Bootcamp will consist of a 2.5 hour learning session (includes a short break half way), then at the end there will be a short guided session to practise what you have learnt.

Where & when :
Salsa level 2 – Tuesday 11h august

More information:

Salsa originates from Cuba but is danced around the world now, there are different styles of Salsa. We will be learning On 1 Salsa.

Salsa is a partner dance but you don’t need a partner to attend, we will usually change partners during the class. However if you come with a partner and don’t want to change partners this can also be accommodated.

Dancing is fun and great for your brain. It can improve confidence , rhythm & co ordination. It’s also great for socialising and meeting new people !

We are very friendly at Latin Quarter and hold regular monthly socials, weekly classes, live latin band nights and try to organise class meals out too to provide many opportunities to chat outside of classes. Many friendships have been formed from dance classes and even a romantic relationship or two over the years !

Booking & prices:
Ideally try to book a place in advance, please email LQsalsadundee@gmail.com or contact Salsa Dundee- Latin Quarter on facebook messenger. You can also just turn up on the night.

£25 per bootcamp if book in advance by bank transfer or £30 on the door, CASH ONLY.

All money raised for Azul Wasi home for former street children in Peru.

Casual clothes are fine and best to wear shoes with a slippy sole , like a leather sole but fit securely on feet though. Although most regular shoes are fine.

Around the world at latin socials both salsa & bachata music is often played so it’s good to learn the basics of both. 

Salsa originates from Cuba but is danced around the world now, there are different styles of Salsa. We will be learning On 1 Salsa. 
Bachata originates from the Dominican Republic, there are different styles of Bachata dance, such as, traditional, sensual, moderna etc. We will be combining basic moderna turn patterns and a few other elements in our Bachata fusion bootcamp.
In both bootcamps we will learn the essential footwork, basic turn patterns, the rhythm and a few moves. 

Salsa and Bachata are partner dances but you don’t need a partner to attend, we will usually change partners during the class.  However if you come with a partner and don’t want to change partners this can also be accommodated.
