Welcome to Cuban Salsa!!
Hola amigos!
Welcome to Cuban Salsa Society, student group of the year 2024! Where we dance, learn, and party together 💃🕺.
We do Cuban salsa every week and, following great success from last year; we'll also be continuing to do bachata classes! All levels are welcome- Both styles are an amazing way to learn to dance whether you have two left feet or you're an experienced dancer looking to pick up some new flair. Salsa is a primarily social dance, so the main thing is to focus on having fun :)
