More information:
Salsa originates from Cuba but is danced around the world now, there are different styles of Salsa. We will be learning Cuban style Salsa & taster of Casino de Rueda.
We will learn essential footwork, basic turn patterns, the rhythm and a few moves.
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 !
