Course Description

Are you new to salsa? Are you starting over after not dancing for a year or more? Salsa 101 is an online introductory course to salsa that can help get you on the dance floor with style and confidence and is a great option for beginners who prefer self-study.
With Salsa 101, we start at the beginning with your basic steps and how to count the music and start dancing. We have years of experience teaching students just like you, so we will warn you about the most common mistakes that we see students make so you can avoid making them.
In addition to our in-depth lessons, we also offer practice drills with music. We find that a lot of students have trouble remembering patterns from week to week, but our drills are designed to help you to lock these patterns in your memory, so you will never get on the dance floor again and have your mind go blank. For the gentlemen, we offer great tips on how to communicate with your partner so she knows exactly what to do, and for the ladies, we also offer tips on styling and footwork so you can add some artistry to your dancing. By the end of this course, you will have a variety of techniques and combinations that you can mix and match leading to a lot of fun on the dance floor.
Who this course is for:
Anyone who is interested in salsa music and Latin dance.
Anyone who is interested in being part of a vibrant dance community.
