About our Salsa and Bachata Classes
We Love to Salsa Dance! How about you?
Salsa Dancing is HOT! Known for its smooth moves and set to vibrant and energetic Latin music, Salsa dancing remains very popular here in the Bay Area! If you want to learn how to Salsa dance, or are looking for classes in the East Bay, check out our class schedule where you can find Beginner through Performance level classes and our Specialty Workshops as well. We also offer sensuous and fun Bachata classes which is now a standard at the Latin clubs. Our classes are taught in a great space at Linden Street Dance Studio on the edge of Jack London Square area. No Partner Required! Classes are ongoing and we start a new series every month. Drop-ins are welcome any time!
Our Beginning to Pre-Advanced Salsa dance classes are taught as progressive month-long series that meet on Tuesdays and Thursdays. You will learn to dance the basics in one hour! Every week, we briefly review what we’ve covered and this repetition will support your learning & enhance your understanding of basic technique and rhythm. You will learn foundation steps which develop into mini-patterns which become the building blocks for longer, more intricate patterns. In Level 2 and 2.5 (Intermediate and Pre-Advanced) we begin a new choreographed pattern each month that will challenge you to improve your technique, increase your understanding of how to put moves together and add some style- all in a fun and comfortable setting with other friendly Salsa dancers! But don't worry, you can always drop in at any time if you want to try it out first. Our Bachata classes are held on Wednesdays at 7pm for Beginners and 8pm for Intermediates. Challenge yourself and try this popular and sensual dance - it's easy to get started! Bachata classes are also progressive and will explore different styles such as Dominican, Traditional and Moderna. Guest instructors will teach periodically.
YOUR FIRST CLASS IS FREE!
Let us know at the front desk if this is your first time visiting Salsa with Juan and your first class will be FREE! If you decide to stay with us for the rest of the month we will make sure you get a great deal on remaining classes.
