Salsa DANCE CLASSES

Salsa Classes for Dancers at All Levels

Join us at Waterloo’s most encouraging and inclusive studio to learn to dance salsa in a social setting! We will take you through all of the basic steps, holds, and turns for dancing with a partner in an improvised way. You do not need any experience, and you do not need a partner.

We will "rotate" through many different partners in class. While you are always welcome to bring and dance with a dedicated partner, we believe it's actually beneficial to dance with as many people as you can! That said, if you’d like to attend with a partner, you’re more than welcome to come and dance only with them. 

For Those Who Never Thought They Could

class Levels & Experience

  • For those with no dance experience whatsoever, looking to start dancing for the first time as an adult. Classes are taught at the pace of the students, with lots of emphasis on repetition, and are based on foundational skills.

  • For those with some experience in the chosen style, or some general fundamental technique. Choreography is taught at a slower pace with more repetition, and is based on foundational skills, with some light introduction to new movement patterns.

  • For dancers with strong foundations looking to refine technique, musicality, and styling. Choreography builds in complexity and extends beyond the foundations in the chosen style.

  • For dancers with a strong technique foundation looking to focus more on quality of execution, musicality, and/or looking to refine their ability to retain choreography quickly. Students may require an assessment to join some advanced courses. It is recommended to have a high degree of strength, mobility, and coordination to participate in these classes.

  • Open to dancers of all levels, with opportunities for increasing or decreasing the difficulty. Some dance experience is recommended to join an open level class.
