Classes and Levels

Class Structure

Salsa dancing is great fun and really helps to keep you fit.
Our classes are for age 16 plus.
At Club Salsa we have three levels of classes. Leaders, usually men, will also be taught how to lead a partner and followers, usually ladies, will learn how to respond to the leads.
​

Both leaders and followers should keep their arms relaxed and their steps small. When you have completed all the basic moves and your instructor feels that you are ready, you can progress to the next level.

​The rest is practice, practice, and practice!

Social Dancing

Social dancing gives you the opportunity to practise with different dancers. 
​Socialise
All Inclusive
For every level of dance

Beginners: At first it can be very daunting but if you’re shy or don’t get out much, social dancing will help you to to break out of your comfort zone and expand your social circle.
Dance etiquette
Personal care

Most Latin dances are danced close. So remember it is very important that you are clean and smell nice before you go out dancing.
Asking someone to dance: Both men and women can ask somebody for a dance. It is very rare you will get turned down. But if you are refused, don’t take it personally. Usually it will be because he/she has been dancing and needs a rest or wishes to get a drink. 
Being asked to dance: It is understood that if you are asked, you will always accept an invitation to dance. If for example if you’re tired, you want to chat to your friends, or go to the toilet, then politely decline. But make an effort to dance with that person later on in the evening. Egos can easily be crushed.
