New dancers can join our 7pm Beginner Salsa & Bachata class that includes a dance social opportunity called a PRACTICA. No partner is needed and to build community we do change partners in class, and also practice changing dance roles to find the best fit for your acquired dance skills. Join us!

Advanced Beginners through Intermediate levels, those with experience, train twice per week to build agility, efficiency and be able to pick up the details of this dance sport much quicker. The repetition, as with any sport, supports retention and begins to train the quick-twitch muscles to fire correctly. Dancers that "follow" are encouraged to wear dance shoes. Dancers that "lead" move towards more complexity with coordination of the hands and feet. We train twice per week. Join us Mondays at 8pm for a focus on Salsa on2 & Wednesdays at 8pm for a mix of Salsa on2 & Bachata.

New Year PRACTICAS. The dance is open to all and attire is festive. Meet other dancers, practice combinations and pick up new Latin Rhythm dances with mini lessons. Wednesday January 29th & February 19th, 9pm.
