Improvers Salsa Class: Level 1

Salsa Improvers is split into two levels; you need to complete level 1 before you can shimmy your way to Salsa level 2. We like it this way as it ensures everyone progresses properly - you simply can't take too many shortcuts with Salsa!

Our Salsa Improvers course provides an in depth practice of both Cuban Style and Cross-Body Lead Style, learning the techniques while developing your own, personal style.

Completion of our Beginners Salsa Class or equivalent experience of Salsa Dancing is a minimum requirement for improvers, otherwise you may tie yourself in knots which is no fun.
