Salsa 101 (Level 1 Salsa)
Start Here. Dance Everywhere. Your Foundation for Salsa On2 Starts Here.
Service Description
Join us for an 8-week beginner course designed to build a strong foundation in Salsa On2. This class is perfect for absolute beginners or those transitioning from On1, and serves as the prerequisite for our Level 2 class. To ensure consistent growth and a comfortable group environment, walk-ins are not permitted. All students must commit to the full 8-week syllabus, allowing you to learn alongside the same peers, build confidence, and progress together. We’ll focus on timing, footwork, rhythm, basic partner-work, and body movement — everything you need to get comfortable on the social dance floor and prepared for the next level.
