Instructors: Sarah

Welcome to the exciting world of Salsa! Contrary to what many believe about Salsa dancing, it is a very forgiving, intuitive and easy to learn social dance. Salsa is not only fun, but socially relevant given recent awareness and appreciation of Latino Cultural.

This class will cover the basic steps of Salsa dancing, and fundamental concepts on frame, body movement, partnering, and navagating the local Salsa scene. We will discuss Salsa specific dance technique and the core framework of leading and following, as well as tips on how to cover up mistakes, non-intimidating stylistic flairs to spice up any move, and dance floor etiquette. Students will also learn 3 or more 'moves' to use on the dance floor and introduced to the Cross Body Lead, Salsa's most common type of intermediate move. No partner or prior experience necessary.
