SPECIAL SALSA SESSIONS

Intensive, single-session training to master
the elements of dancing with rhythm and style!

Whether you’re slightly rhythm-impaired, fully beat-challenged, or brilliantly musical but missing the inside track on the complexities of Afro-Cuban percussion, even if you are a beginner in Salsa, the “Dance Rhythm” workshops will fine-tune your ability to “dance to the music!”
All workshops include training in basic dance steps, techniques and timing - partner not required.
