Salsa Intro
Salsa Intro – The Perfect Start to Your Dance Journey 💃🕺
Want to try salsa before committing to a full course?
Salsa Intro is a 2.5-hour introductory class giving you a taste of the basic principles of salsa.
Held at the start of each course series, it gives you a hands-on introduction to basic steps, rhythm, and partner work – helping you feel more confident before starting a beginner course.
You can attend the intro session only, but we recommend combining Salsa Intro with the full beginner course for the best start. Many find that the intro builds a strong foundation and smooth transition into regular classes.
