Previous class series

Latin Club - Salsa y Bachata level 1-2 - $12

7:30 - 8:30pm, Thursdays

You’ll learn fun variations and also how to isolate your body and cue into the music to explore your own style.

Starting and brand-new dancers are welcome as are those who know these dances. It is our philosophy as teachers that it benefits all to have different levels, and we divide the class as needed so all learn something new.

\What is different and unique about us? we have a creative and unique teaching approach. We use some of the best Latin music out there, and curate the music so you enjoy dancing in class. We believe that dance 'class' isn't
only for teaching you so you can go 'out' dancing, it is plain and simple (also) a chance to dance in a safe and fun environment.
Music matters!

Enver and Mindi both feel like it is an important skill to 'put yourself in someone's' shoes' when dancing, as this gives you skills beyond the dance floor. We have a combined experience and perspectives of more than 35 years of dancing and have learned first-hand that this creates better dancers, allows partner dancing the chance to grow with the times, and means that more people get to dance. Both men and women (and whichever or however you identify) will get the chance to learn to both lead and follow if they wish.
