Salsa is a dance style that has its roots in Cuban dance styles, such as the Son, Mambo and Cha-cha-cha. It’s a fast dance style that’s often danced to upbeat music. Will you be the king or queen at the next salsa party?
During the beginner course you learn the basics of the salsa dance and work on the first patterns together. You dance with a partner and learn to lead and to follow. You’ll learn the basic footwork as well as how to perform some of the figures using your arms. While you’re learning these movements, you’ll learn to feel the rhythm of salsa music. After this course, you can attend salsa parties and dance together with other people.
