Spice Up Your Routine with Salsa Dance Lessons

Both partner patterns and solo shines are integral parts of salsa dancing. Our shines and warmup routines will help to improve your individual dance skills, including footwork, turns, body action and hip movement. Join us in the ballroom to learn some salsa dance moves that you can take to the club, parties and weddings.

Museum of Underground Dancing Feature

We are so excited to share that our very own instructor Ron is a featured dancer at the Museum of NYC about underground social dancing! This new exhibit features all types and styles dating back to the 1900's up to date and Ron is featured in the Hustle segment with Lori Brizzi who brought him into the project to dance with her.

Salsa Dance Classes

Our group Salsa dance classes are a great way to learn some moves and meet others who are interested in salsa dancing! Typically, one instructor teaches a group of students and starts out with a solo dancing warmup (aka shines), then progresses to partnering step patterns. No partner? No worries! We rotate partners in class so that everyone gets a chance to partner with each other. You will learn to lead and follow with different people which is essential for Salsa dancing and social dance in general. You are welcome to join our group Salsa dance classes solo, with a friend, or with a partner!

Private Salsa Dance Lessons

In private dance lessons, you get one-on-one time with our expert salsa instructor to focus specifically on your dance needs and help elevate your salsa dancing to the next level! With this one-on-one format, students often progress much quicker because they receive personalized instruction targeted exclusively towards them. Private salsa dance lessons take place in our shared ballroom and can be taken by one person or a couple. Individual students, dance partner couples and romantic couples can all benefit from private dance lessons. Sometimes couples even treat it as a date night!

At Salsa clubs, you will often find that DJs play a mix of Latin Nightclub songs including Bachata and Merengue. This trio of music styles is the “Salsa Dancing Trinity” and most Salsa dancers also know how to dance Merengue and Bachata as well.
