What is
Salsa?
Salsa is a Latin dance - a fun and social way to keep fit -
for your mind, body and soul!
Singles and couples of all ages and cultures are welcome and
will feel comfortable whilst they learn a valuable life skill - to be able to dance in a stylish manner with a
qualified and patient teacher!
There are two main styles of Salsa
Dancing...
Cuban - danced in a
circular motion and 'New York ' - danced in a straight
line.
Other forms of Salsa that
are very easy and fun to learn to dance include
Bachata and Merengue , Heidi
often teaches these at the beginning of courses as they are a great intro to Salsa and very popular at
Salsa Parties and Salsa Weekends.
