Salsa Dance Lessons FAQ
What will my partner and I learn from private salsa lessons?
Private classes are available with a focus on proper connection, beginner to advanced salsa steps, and authentic and engaging styling. Private classes will ensure that you and your partner can progress at a comfortable pace and build confidence while social dancing.
Can I take private salsa lessons without a partner?
At this time private salsa lessons are only available for partners. Solo learners are still invited to attend the group classes and dance parties.
What do we bring to the salsa lesson?
Please bring a bottle of water to stay hydrated. Wear comfortable shoes and flexible clothing. Professional dance shoes are not required but can be worn. Practice shoes without a heel are highly recommended. If learning a dance for a wedding or a specific event please bring the shoes that will be worn to ensure comfort and stability. Do not wear flip flops or sandals.
Where can we practice our salsa dancing?
Throughout the month, the Sidney and Berne Davis Art Center hosts various Latin nights where you can continue to practice your steps on the dance floor and put your new knowledge on display to music from some of the best local dance DJs!
What days and times are available for private lessons?
For private lessons please submit the day and time that works best for you and your partner. Submit this information on the questionnaire portion of the registration page. The instructor will reach out to you with open availability.
