Club Salsa

salsa_dance
The name "Salsa" correctly describes the flavor of this dance: hot! Danced correctly, there's a lot of shakin', shimmying, and hip action going on. Don't be deterred - you can learn how to achieve all of this action by taking classes, private lessons, and practice, practice, practice. The basic step of salsa can be accomplished with less than 10 minutes of practice.

We offer progressive series classes, drop-In classes, styling and shines classes, and practices (a.k.a Practico) to fully immerse yourself in the hottest dance style in the country! You'll have lot's of opportunity to practice and develop your Salsa skills and prepare you for the nightclubs! Private lessons are also available to give your dancing an extra kick as well!

Salsa Practica Tuesdays

Description: The practice class is for students wanting to practice what they learned in class. Students generally get nervous about practicing in a club because they feel that the basics are all that they know and they don't want to mess up. They usually have problems with the music timing, the lead, remembering what's next, and not knowing what they are doing right or wrong. This class would provide a forum to practice and improve what they already know so that they feel comfortable using the moves socially. Its an easy transition from the class to the club. We would have an instructor to go around and work with student's questions and to take note of any issues as they dance. The songs would be a mix between timing Cd's and popular salsa music, and they would play continuously throughout the class which means no formal instruction like a normal class. Students would ask each other to dance just as they would at the club.

Levels Offered: All Levels (students at any level can join in but you must know at least the basic steps of Salsa to really benefit)

Schedule: Salsa Practica on Tuesdays at 9:00pm

Price: $5 per person

Club Bachata and Merengue

Description: Bachata is a dance with origins in the Dominican Republic, but is spreading oll over the world. This 4-week series focuses on the fundamentals of Bachata by incorporating the basic steps and fancy styling to prepare you for social dancing at the nightclubs and further advanced classes. Using easy-to-learn methods with a twist of humor and fun, this class will enable you to move forward with your dancing with confidence in a social setting. This series is designed to teach absolute beginners who have never danced Bachata before or experienced dancers wanting a refresher course. Don't miss this series where we will get your hips to move like you'd never believe!

Merengue, the dance, evolved from Merengue music’s two-beat rhythm. The motion of the dance focuses on hip movements created by slightly bending alternating knees. An exaggerated Cuban motion is the predominant styling taught in most contemporary dance studios. Partners may then move either together or individually with an open connection. Intricate hand connections are helped by the focus on a calm upper body during the often fast paced music. This calmness also means that most turns take four beats.

Levels Offered: Beginner, Advanced Beginner, Intermediate

Schedule: TBD

Price: $60 for early registration or $72 on-the-day (don't wait, register early!)
