Frequently Asked Questions

getting started

I've never danced Salsa before. Can I still join?

Absolutely!
Our Salsa Fundamentals classes are designed for complete beginners, so no previous dance experience is needed.

Just come as you are! we’ll guide you through your first steps in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. 

Many people come on their own, and thanks to our partner rotation and warm international community, it’s easy to meet new people and feel part of the group from day one.

Do I need to bring a partner?

Not at all! In fact, many people come on their own. 💛

We rotate partners throughout the class, so you’ll dance with different people and quickly get to know the community.

We usually have a balanced number of leaders and followers. And even if we don’t, nobody waits long thanks to regular partner rotation. We also encourage everyone to explore both leading and following.

Can I start anytime?

Absolutely!
Our classes run continuously, so you can join whenever you’re ready.
There’s no need to wait for a new course to begin.

I've danced other Salsa styles before. Where should I start?

Great! Your dance experience will definitely help you.

Colombian Salsa has its own technique and footwork, so we usually recommend starting with Salsa Fundamentals to get familiar with the style.

Our Saturday Fundamentals is a great choice, if you already feel comfortable after the class, you can simply stay afterwards and join the Intermediate class.

We’re always happy to recommend the class that’s right for you.

What should I wear?

Wear comfortable clothes you can move in and clean indoor shoes. Sneakers, dance shoes or even dancing barefoot are all perfectly fine.

Don’t forget to bring something to drink (please no glass bottles). A towel and a change of clothes can also come in handy after an energetic class.

And most importantly: bring a smile and get ready for lots of good energy, dancing and fun!

Yes! Our classes are taught in English, making it easy for people from all over the world to join our community.
Most of our trainers also speak Spanish and German.
