Learn to Salsa (Beginners)

Wish you could dance like the stars on Strictly but feel too afraid to try? Do you tell yourself you have two left feet? Well not anymore! You can become an expert in no time by joining this Cuban Salsa class for absolute beginners!

Cuba is the birthplace of salsa, the most famous of all the Latin dances. Who better to teach you than Abelardo of ‘Salsa is Life’, an experienced Cuban salsa teacher from Old Havana! This will be an immersive experience exploring Cuba’s rich cultural heritage.

Your host will create an inclusive, welcoming and fun environment where you can get fit, express your individuality and meet new people.

What can you expect?

  • A step-by-step program where you will gradually build up your confidence. Master the fundamentals of salsa, the basic timing and steps
  • Learn how to move your body in time to smooth Cuban rhythms
  • Progress from the basic steps into partner dancing

You'll be hosted by

Abelardo

Abelardo is from Old Havana (Habana Vieja) and like most Cubans has been dancing since he learnt how to walk. Dance and music permeates every aspect of Cuban culture and Abelardo is an embodiment of this. He was always passionate about running his own dance school and now in Bristol this dream has become a reality.
Nothing gives him greater joy than seeing his students enjoy and progress in their dance.
