This course is suitable for those who have laid a good foundation in salsa, i.e. have good control of the salsa rhythm and timing, and can dance basic salsa figures from 'Salsa beginner' in a good way. We recommend that you as a minimum have good control of these characters when starting at this level: dile que no, dile que si, guapea, enchufla, enchufla doble. We continue with these modules in this course.
You dance at 'Intermediate level 1' for several rounds until you have learned all the figures that belong to this level and are ready to move on to 'Intermediate level 2'.(Course description) 18.40 - 19.40

Rueda de Casino is the Cuban ring dance variant of salsa. Some of the figures will be already known from regular salsa, and which are also used in rueda. Other figures are most commonly used in rueda and are taught in this course. You must have taken at least a basic course in salsa to start with rueda.To ensure good learning of Cuban characters and work on developing as a good leader/follower, it may be a good idea to attend a salsa course in parallel to also practice the dance in pairs.(Course description) 19.45-20.45

This course builds on Salsa Improver 1. The instructor does not repeat the repertoire from the previous course, but assumes that you as a participant are confident in the moves from 'Improver 1', and can use these on the social dance floor. In 'improver 2' you continue with figures from the modules that have not been covered in 'improver 1', and which require a slightly higher level. You dance at an advanced level for several rounds until you have learned all the figures that belong to this level and are ready to move on to the next level, which is intermediate.

Welcome to SalsaNor's basic course in Cuban salsa. In the course, experienced and patient instructors go through various basic steps and simple figures at a basic level. The course is also suitable for those who already dance some salsa or have taken a basic course in salsa before.
During the course, we become confident in the salsa rhythm, in the different basic steps and learn the most central salsa variations in pairs. In addition to learning new characters, we are constantly concerned that everyone should feel that they have mastered the dance, and focus on how we in the dance should lead the partner clearly, and how the partner should be led.After this course, you can move on to advanced1 level if the content of this course feels simple and you master it well enough to use it on the social dance floor. We often recommend repeating the basic course until you feel confident in the syllabus from the basic course. The very best dancers are the ones who lay a solid foundation in the beginning!After the basic course, you are also ready to start Rueda de Casino; Cuban salsa as a ring dance.The course is slightly cheaper when registering in pairs. Then you choose pair registration, first register one of them, press 'Add new participant' at the bottom instead of 'Confirm registration', and fill in for partner as well before finally choosing 'Confirm registration' and come to payment.Course location: STUDIO ORIENT, Arbeidergata 4, SentrumDuration: 8 weeks Start: 17 August.

Welcome to a new round of Rueda de casino with Bernt at our highest level.
The course will focus on rueda de casino figures and combinations at an advanced level, with a lot of dance training, which includes both new characters and figures that are expected to be familiar from before, as well as some rueda in contratiempo.ExpectationThe course is suitable for dancers with several years of experience with casino and rueda de casino. You are expected to have a large repertoire of rueda figures, and to have experience with quick transitions between characters, without falling out of the flow in the ring. The expected minimum level of characters can be seen here: Rueda Beginner and Rueda Improver.You must be prepared to work with rueda both at a slow and high pace, and some in contratiempo. It is an advantage if you are able to learn new material relatively quickly, and can work a little on your own to refresh and remember what we learn, so that there is plenty of time to dance on the course.ContinuityIn order to have a good progression through the course, it is important that you as a participant are involved in the entire course. Absence due to illness is of course fine, but if you miss several course evenings, it can be difficult to follow the rest of the course. We emphasize continuity and will have some limited repetition here, so participants are encouraged to practice between course evenings.SalsaNor offers a free video platform for extra training: Rueda Casino.Welcome!NB! The first evening at a new level is always a trial class for new, where you assess whether you have the foundation necessary to follow the course and with mastery and the joy of dancing. If someone is recommended to follow the rueda course at an advanced level, they will be notified of this either immediately after the trial class, or by e-mail within 24 hours.Course location: Studio Orient Arbeidergata 4, City CenterDuration : 8 weeks. Start: 18 August, last day of the course 13 OctoberNB! The course starts at 17:00 and each course hour is 75 min.

What if you could dance both as a leader and a follower – in the same figure?
Salsa Switch (also called Casino Switch because it's all about Cuban salsa) is a playful and creative way of dancing casino, where the goal is to switch roles so seamlessly that the flow of the dance never stops. It's challenging, social and incredibly fun – and opens up completely new possibilities on the dance floor.During the course, we work with good basic technique in the characters, so that you understand how and why the role changes work. We place great emphasis on the interaction between driver and follower, and explore how small adjustments can make role changes natural and effortless. There will also be a lot of play with characters, combinations and creative transitions.The course is suitable for those who either:- know the basic characters in both the driver and follower roles (typically, dile que no, guapea, right and left turns), or
- is an experienced dancer in one role and wants to learn Switch.

SalsaNor was the first non-profit organization in Norway with the purpose of spreading the music and dance Salsa, established in 1999. But just as Salsa means sauce composed of ingredients, SalsaNor also works to promote many more Latin American and Afro-Caribbean genres. Today, SalsaNor can look back on 20 years of operation, and is currently established with local associations in Trondheim and Oslo, in addition to running a number of national and international projects.
