Salsa surgery
As salsa teachers were always getting asked lots of questions about salsa. So we thought it would be a good idea to create a page were salsa dancers or people thinking about taking up salsa can submit a question.

We'll do our best to answer the question via this forum ASAP. In this way we hope to buildup a really useful salsa page that your salsa related questions.

We wont use anybodies name or email in this forum we will only publish the question and reply.

Whatever you feel most comfortable in. Most salsa classes are taught in an informal club/bar setting. I would say most guys wear Jeans, T-shirt and trainers, ladies tend to wear Jeans, blouse and small heeled shoes. As your salsa progresses most people will invest in a pair of dance or jazz shoes, as these can really help your dancing improve.
You dont need a partner in order to attend the SalsaFleet salsa classes or courses. Partners are rotated every few minutes during the class. This means everyone in the class will practise salsa with each other several times during the class. We find this is the best way to learn as all guys will lead salsa moves slightly differently, and ladies will leran to interpret the different leads only by practising
Salsa evenings are quite unique in that they combine teaching and socialising. The venue has a bar, the salsa class part of the evening is informal and relaxed. We want to help people learn how to dance salsa, but we dont want people getting stressed or fustrated. Your salsa teacher will show you how to dance salsa by teaching you salsa moves. The steps will be broken down to ensure you learn the timing, footwork, correct partner tension, how to lead or follow the move etc. You will then practise this to slow salsa music, rotate partners then continue practising. After the song has finished your teacher will give feedback to help improve how the move is danced. After the classes are finished salsa music will be played by the DJ and class participents are free to practise salsa moves they've learn't with whoever wants to practise. Or you can head to the bar for a well earned rest.. ;-)
