This course is at an intermediate level.

Therefore we work on body isolation and technique, musical understanding and explore Afro-Cuban and popular dances such as Rumba Guaguanco. Please come dressed in sportswear and bring some water to drink.

Leonor is an amazing dancer but also an amazing teacher! She has a huge knowledge of Cuban culture and dances, and always came to class super prepared. The lessons were very structured but also a lot of fun! Would love to take more workshops like this with her :)

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 with Leonor Kotoun & Ilya Vasilenko, Room: 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 with Leonor Kotoun & Ilya Vasilenko, Room: 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!

Ilya and Leonor are great with their method, style, tips and attention to minute details. Their lesson is very wholesome and perhaps one of the best at TQ

The true culmination of Salsa courses. Ilya and Leonor are amazing teachers: They know (and feel) their stuff and they are always fun yet concentrated. The pace is demanding but doable.

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!
