1. Basics (1 Month)
2. Improvers (2 Months)
3. Intermediate (8 to 12 Months)
4. Advanced
Beginners will come to know that Salsa dancing can be very addictive. Because salsa dancing is so much fun, and brings together people of all ages and cultures; it is appropriate to give fair warning... You don't need to understand Spanish or know how to dance to be moved by its rhythms and unremitting swing. Basic footwork and rhythm are important here; followed by exercises and patterns that help you to develop and appreciate this romantic dance, and alluring music. Salsa is for everyone!
The goal of the beginner is to build a strong foundation onto which your dancing and appreciation can be expanded. Improvers will move on to more complex patterns and footwork. While doing so we will pay particular attention to our leading and following techniques. Now that we have our basic steps acquired we can also give more thought to our style!
Intermediate will learn that practice makes a man perfect. It is very beneficial to work out any kinks within your basic moves that would keep you from the next level. Here we concentrate on advancing footwork exercises from the male and female perspective. Speed, syncopation's, spinning, hip movement, and knee movement is also the focus. Details on such things as connection, resistance, and tempos within the pattern are important here. The goal is to train you in the skill, knowledge, and discipline, to become an advanced dancer.
Advanced - remember your first steps? "Me, Tarzan. You, Jane." Now you have learned moves that make your feet fly! You've come a long way... but there's more. You provide the only limits, because in Salsa, there are none. The goal is to move your dancing up a notch !
