Body Movement & Shines

Dive into shines with a focus on body movement, rhythm, styling, and improvisation for both follows and leads. 

Guided Practice 

Enjoy guided practice sessions to end each class, where you’ll receive personalized feedback from instructors and peers. We'll invite guest artists from our community to join our select practicas so you can apply what you’ve learned with high-level dancers.

Is this class for you?

You're an intermediate to advanced salsa on-2 dancer, and you probably have 2 years of experience or more. If you’re unsure about your level, join us for a class and we can assess if this series is the right fit.
