⭐THIS COURSE RIGHT FOR YOU IF:
…you are absolutely new to salsa or if you feel like you need a little bit more practice.

No Partner Needed & No Experience Required

⭐COURSE DESCRIPTION:
No prior knowledge of dancing is needed, just bring your feet with or without rhythm and you’ll be taken care of 🙂 It doesn’t matter if you want to learn to dance for fun, health, confidence, happiness, or social – we are here to guide you through it.

The objective of the course is to bring you to a comfort level so you could dance to the beats of salsa with a partner or without. The course includes 8 lessons, each lesson 60 minutes.

⭐WHAT YOU WILL LEARN:
• Weeks 1–3: We will guide you through fundamentals, salsa timing, rhythm, history of salsa and basic footwork
• Weeks 4–8: We will teach you partner work combinations so you can start practicing your social dancing skills. All of it with a lot of fun. Everyone rotates in class so you get to know everyone in your group*

P.S. We believe that if you can walk you can dance too (it’s all about muscle memory right?). Also PLEASE NOTE – SALSA IS ADDICTIVE!!!!

*If you wish to stay with your partner please do let us know 🙂 We understand that not everyone may feel comfortable mixing with others.

⭐WHAT YOU WILL GET:

  • A dance syllabus designed by Salsa Solent Dance Academy, refined by years of dance teaching and learning experience
  • A dance syllabus that is progressive, comprehensive and effective
  • A learning environment that is encouraging, fulfilling and fun
  • No partner necessary. Everyone rotates partners throughout the lesson
  • Trained instructors that are patient, dedicated and passionate about dancing and teaching
  • Dance training for both the recreational dancer as well as the aspiring professional dancer
  • Friendly feedback throughout the class will allow you to master your learning quicker

Please also remember our courses are only available every 8 weeks and are hugely popular, so make sure you get booked in to avoid disappointment 🙂

⭐WHAT IF I MISS A WEEK?
No need to worry – each week starts with a recap of the previous weeks content so you will be able to catch up. We also create group chat where we send videos with latest moves and steps.

Level: SalsaB1, Beginner
