A Salsa or Bachata try-out lasts 55 minutes (Reggaeton 60) and can start a little earlier than the course. The exact time is shown with each try-out.
Which level are you?
Salsa 1 · Beginners

Salsa 3 · Intermediate
Technique, styling and musicality: double spins, 360 turns, copa variations and hammerlocks.
What you don't need
Three things people worry about before a first class.
No partner
Everyone dances with everyone. Partners rotate during class, so you can come on your own.
No experience
Salsa 1 and Bachata 1 start from the very first step. Nobody expects you to know it already.
No dance shoes
Wear something you can move in, with smooth-soled shoes. Coming from work? Bring a fresh shirt.
