Salseros

Learn to Dance Salsa on the Northern Beaches, Sydney, Australia

Salseros is a beautiful new studio in Balgowlah, Sydney's Northern Beaches, for Guys and Ladies to learn to dance Salsa, Bachata and Street Latin styles. It's fun and you don't need a partner. Group classes and private lessons are available.

The lessons are designed as 8 week courses for a structured gradual progression in preparation for the next level. Each level will focus on learning and mastering a compilation of dance moves that have a common thread and can be used on the social dance floor.

Salsa is danced the way you like to dance it. You can relax with it and make it fun, or you can salsa to look and feel hot, sexy and passionate. You can salsa with tricks and spins and burning up the floor boards. It's your dance, so style it with what your comfortable with, and what is inspired by music and partner to express.

We look forward to teaching you!
