Salsa
Would you like to learn to dance salsa while becoming part of an international, close-knit, and fun community? Then you’ve come to the right place!
Salsa is one of the world’s most popular social dances, originating from Cuban culture, and has captivated millions of people with its infectious rhythms, playfulness, and sense of community. In our classes, we place great emphasis on mastering the basics, partner connection, leading and following techniques, and dancing with confidence at social events.
Most of our classes are taught in English, so Hungarian and international students and professionals alike can easily join. In addition to dance classes, we organize group dance programs, social evenings, and team-building events throughout the year, so you can not only learn new dances but also make new friends.
We’ll be holding classes on two levels
7:00–8:15 p.m. – Complete Beginner Group
This class is for those who have never danced salsa before or who would like to rebuild their skills from the ground up. We’ll learn the basic steps, basic turns, a sense of rhythm, and the basics of working with a partner. Then we’ll dive into the more lively world of salsa.
No prior dance experience is necessary—just bring an open mind and a sense of fun!
Feel free to come without a partner; we’ll switch partners regularly during the classes.
8:15–9:30 p.m. – Foundation Plus / Improvers Level
We recommend this group for those who already have some salsa experience and would like to further expand their skills. If the following moves sound familiar to you, feel free to join us:
· Dile que no
· Dile que sí
· Guapea
· Enchufla
· Vacílala
· Setenta perhaps...?
In these classes, building on these basics, we’ll learn new combinations, more complex moves, turns, leading and following techniques, as well as musicality and more stylish execution. The goal is for you to dance with increasing confidence and creativity with different partners at social dance events.
We warmly welcome everyone who wants to move, improve, unwind, and become part of a fantastic international community!
