Leonor is an amazing teacher. She always creates both a respectful and funny atmosphere so you never feel judged for not getting something and you can fully enjoy the dancing experience. She has a great way of showing steps and accompanies it by explaining the history of salsa. 100% recommended

Ilya und Leonor sind hervorragende Salsalehrer und es hat richtig Spass gemacht, bei ihnen im Kurs zu sein. Beide haben umfangreiches Wissen über Salsa Cubana und können dies super vermitteln. Bei ihnen wird man definitiv gefordert, aber auch optimal unterstützt.

best teachers you can learn from!!!
01. April 2026, 12:19 Salsa Cubana 5 mit Ilya Vasilenko & Leonor, Raum: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille
This course is the full package of cuban culture. We did not only dance salsa but also learned some history, bodymovement, musicality... Ilya and Leonor are great teachers who focus on true cuban salsa. It was a great joy to dance in this class.
01. April 2026, 07:50 Beyond Salsa Cubana 6 mit Leonor & Ilya Vasilenko, Raum: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille
Most amazing course to deepen the knowledge on the roots of Salsa. You will learn about the structures and patterns of the music, cultural histories and the movement that combines the two things. It cant get any better or any more interesting! Also people are amazing. This course has been my weekly highlight over the past few month.
31. März 2026, 23:23 Beyond Salsa Cubana 6 mit Leonor & Ilya Vasilenko, Raum: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille
Leonor and Ilya teach with so much knowledge and passion and make the classes super exciting!
15. März 2026, 07:41 Salsa - Bodymovement Training mit Leonor, Raum: Hönggerberg, ASVZ Arena 3
Had an absolute blast in the Bodymovement training class. Leonor was fun, engaging, and great at leading us through the carnival dance we learned movement by movement. The pace of the class was perfect, with moments of solo exploration balanced well with group coordinated movement and choreography. I wouldn't hestitate to participate again and highly suggest for anyone looking to sink deeper into their bodies to better feel and hear cuban salsa!
03. Feb. 2026, 23:27 Beyond Salsa Cubana 6 mit Leonor & Ilya Vasilenko, Raum: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille
Leonor and Ilya are simply the creme de la creme. Immaculate vibes.
03. Feb. 2026, 22:47 Salsa Rueda mit Ilya Vasilenko & Leonor, Raum: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille
Leonor and Ilya are fantastic teachers, and always create a great atmosphere!
24. Jan. 2026, 15:49 Salsa - Training mit Leonor, Raum: Hönggerberg, ASVZ Arena 3
Leonor teaches great classes and has a lot of knowledge and passion for cuban salsa which shows in all of the courses and this class specifically about musicality was great to support us when we dance to the music!
02. Jan. 2026, 16:29 Salsa Cubana 4 mit Sophia Boyer & Flusi, Raum: UZH Zentrum, Untere Mensa
Stefan can be really funny at times, and Sophia lightens the atmosphere and brings more structure when needed. I really enjoyed the course and would retake it! Of course there are always ways to make it better, like regular ruedas (I would personally prefer shorter ruedas every time than only doing it twice) or regular short repetitions of past figures, but we all know the time is limited. There are also things I really liked in this course: + There are videos! So I can repeat the figures at home before LOD. Very useful. Please keep doing them. + Hearing about the bailes populares was helpful to put the dance into a cultural context. + We discussed musicality and the structure of salsa songs, and Stefan brought a real poster! Cool! + The figures we learned are nice, and we could learn them pretty quickly. The only drawback is that I forget them just as quickly... But for that we already have point 1.
02. Jan. 2026, 16:07 Salsa - Training mit Leonor, Raum: Hönggerberg, ASVZ Arena 3
The body movement workshop was very interesting. In the normal courses we usually practice isolations during the warm up: only hips, only chest, only shoulders. It was surprisingly hard combining all those elements together! Leonor gave a lot of helpful individual feedback. I liked the course a lot and hope I can retain what I learned and apply it for the salsa basic step. My personal highlight were the skirts Leonor brought for the training! I was a bit overwhelmed trying to move everything at the same time, but the skirts were fun and I think they helped a bit to get into the right spirit and mindset.
31. Okt. 2025, 08:43 Salsa Cubana 3 mit Sophia Boyer & Flusi, Raum: UZH Zentrum, Untere Mensa
Sophia and Stefan are the absolute best teachers of all time, they make the class so much fun and they’re so passionate about what they do
29. Okt. 2025, 10:11 Beyond Salsa Cubana 6 mit Leonor & Ilya Vasilenko, Raum: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille
Leonor and Ilya are great, the course is very fun and they do an amazing job in teaching musicality. It is the type of course that makes and enjoy salsa by feeling the music and understanding it better
28. Okt. 2025, 21:25 Salsa Cubana 3 mit Leonor & Ilya Vasilenko, Raum: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille
I have sooooo much fun learning Salsa-Cubana from Leo and Ilya. The history of the dance is a must to know. Thank you for sharing it to us!

03. Sept. 2025, 00:17 Beyond Salsa Cubana 6 mit Leonor & Ilya Vasilenko, Raum: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille
This course is amazing. Teaching musicality is not at all easy and yet Leonor and Ilya manage to do it well and make it fun.
26. Juli 2025, 09:52 Salsa - Training mit Leonor, Raum: Hönggerberg, ASVZ Arena 3
I absolutely loved this reggaeton class! Leonor is an incredible teacher—she clearly knows her stuff, especially with her deep knowledge of Afro-Cuban dance. She broke down the movements in a super fun and approachable way, starting with the basics and then layering on complexity step by step. Her instructions were really clear and easy to follow, which made it so enjoyable. I’d totally recommend this course to anyone looking to dive into reggaeton with a skilled and passionate instructor!
12. Juli 2025, 15:22 Salsa - Training mit Leonor, Raum: Hönggerberg, ASVZ Arena 3
Leonor clearly has a lot of experience with Salsa. The best part is that she does an amazing job passing on her knowledge and experience while also making the lesson fun and engaging.
02. April 2025, 14:50 Beyond Salsa Cubana 6 mit Leonor & Ilya Vasilenko, Raum: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille
The course was very interesting, at a good pace, and highly informative. Leonor and Ilya are excellent teachers who offer clear explanations and helpful feedback in a fun environment.
21. März 2025, 22:12 Salsa - Training mit Leonor, Raum: Hönggerberg, ASVZ Arena 3
Totally loved it! We looked at a lot of important body movements that you can directly apply to social dancing and especially train at home!!
15. März 2025, 16:40 Salsa - Training mit Leonor, Raum: Hönggerberg, ASVZ Arena 3

03. Nov. 2024, 23:53 Salsa Cubana 3 mit Leonor & Ilya Vasilenko, Raum: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille
Absolutely amazing class! Both teachers think a lot about their teaching and are at the same time experts in Salsa. Highly recommed.
03. Nov. 2024, 23:53 Beyond Salsa Cubana 6 mit Leonor & Ilya Vasilenko, Raum: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille
Very interesting course. The title "beyond Salsa" captures it well. You get introduced to other Cuban dance forms that you can integrate into your Salsa dancing.
03. Nov. 2024, 23:53 Salsa Cubana 3 mit Leonor & Ilya Vasilenko, Raum: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille
Leonor and Ilya teach an excellent course. The transition from Salsa 2 to Salsa 3 is certainly not an easy one and the learning curve can be steep at times. However, Leonor and Ilya make it a piece of cake. They are always happy and eager to check your style, explain steps, or give tips to improve your musicality. I can't wait for Salsa 4!
03. Nov. 2024, 23:53 Salsa Cubana 3 mit Leonor & Ilya Vasilenko, Raum: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille
Eine absolute Empfehlung!
30. Mai 2024, 11:07 Salsa Cubana 2 mit Leonor & Ilya Vasilenko, Raum: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille

Leonor and Ilya were phenomenal teachers, infusing the class with boundless energy. Their clear explanations of body movements and Cuban motion made the figures a breeze to follow. Rueda de Casino was a blast! Can't wait to dance with them again!
