Want to learn to dance salsa - the most popular Latin dance style but not sure where to start?
Our Salsa Taster classes are a great choice for you to try a class before signing up to one of our beginner salsa courses. The classes are suitable for absolute beginners or for those who have had a few salsa lessons but are not yet regular salsa dancers. They will allow you to experience the dance, meet the instructor and ask any questions you have about our salsa classes in London.

I really liked the class and I’ll join the beginner course. I came to the taster lesson just to see how it is because I didn’t know anything about salsa and I’m not a good dancer at all! The teacher was very clear and I can see that everything is explained, from the basic steps so I am sure it will be fine!

FAQs
-
What to wear in a Salsa dance class?
Smart casual clothing and comfortable shoes. We recommend small heel shoes for the ladies and leather sole shoes for the gentlemen. Please, no stilettos, boots or trainers with a strong grip.
-
Do I need a partner to join a course?
No, we frequently rotate partners throughout the class to ensure all leading and following techniques are working well.
-
I come with a partner, can we stay dancing together and not rotate with the others?
I come with a partner, can we stay dancing together and not rotate with the others? We rotate partners in our classes as we have found that dancing with different people teaches better leading and following skills which ultimately makes dancing with our own partner (if you have one) a better and more pleasurable experience. If you are interested in learning to dance as a couple, please check our Beginners Ballroom & Latin courses.
