Take your Salsa Dance skills to the next level during this fun, three-day intensive course, led by James, our experienced instructor.
This course will enable you to learn some more advanced steps as you continue to master the footwork and rhythms of this vibrant dance form. It is suitable for Salsa dancers with a good grasp of the basics, who are reasonably confident in their footwork and with moves such as enchufa, exhibila and dile que no. For those who have recently completed the Salsa Beginners' course, this course is an opportunity for further progression.
The sessions are conducted in "La Rueda," (The Wheel), but with a focus on social dancing, creating a friendly and inclusive environment for everyone to learn and make new friends. All are welcome, whether attending as an individual or couple.
The atmosphere is relaxed and low-pressure, with plenty of breaks for you to enjoy the learning process. Cap off each day by practicing to music in a social setting, reinforcing what you've learned.
