Description

Salsa Cubana has got it all: phenomenal music, diverse rhythm patterns and a rich historical and cultural background, which is brought to you throughout the lyrics. You only need some basic steps to start dancing as a couple and then learn any of the playful, slightly rotating figures, which are typical for Salsa Cubana. This dance opens the door to related Cuban dance styles like Son, Rumba or the group dance called “Rueda de Casino”. Salsa Cubana provides the Caribbean feeling we are all longing for - so come, and dance with us!

In course 4 you will get familiar with patterns like “sacala”, “coca cola” and “lasso”. We will add the figure “familia” to our repertoire, which consists of the cousin “prima”, the sister “hermana” and the aunt “tia”. As soon as we have reached those goals, we will be able to look at a variety of advanced figures like “setenta complicado”.  If you haven’t already, after course 4 it’s high time to hit the Salsa dance floors!

In course level 4 we built upon your experience from previous courses and turn to the more complex figures. Since you are advanced now, get ready – it’s time to party.

Conquer the dance floors. Your teachers know where the best parties are! 😉

Ramona are Silvan are super fun to learn with! I love their enthusiasm and patience when teaching new figures. Dad jokes by Ramona are an added bonus!

Lena and Robin are fantastic teachers, they make dancing salsa fun! The ambience in the class was very relaxed while a lot of cool new figures were introduced and the progress was fairly fast paced. Bonus points for the personalized feedback and tips.

Better organised than other times. Figures had more structure, were presented together and how they can be combined. Very good job Lena & Robin

Robin and Lena give a great class, not just with interesting figures and lots of help to get them right, but also an energy that just makes it really fun to take the class.

The workshop on Bachata Dominicana was very well structured, everything was clearly presented, repeated with patience and adapted to the level of the participants. And besides, we managed to cover quite a lot in under three hours. Thanks for that, I'm looking forward to a continuation!
