Salsa Dancing Classes: Learn this Passionate Latin American Dance

Salsa dancing is an very popular form of Latin American dance, loved across the world. Known as a fantastic and passionate dance, much like the tango, salsa dancing is a skill that will impress almost anybody. So if you’re thinking of learning, now is the perfect time to start!

It is a fantastic way to keep fit, have fun and to make new friends. Bringing a partner is not necessary. That means you can always try a salsa dancing course on your own. It is also great fun as an activity with friends.

So what will you learn on salsa dancing classes?

Although it is from the Caribbean, salsa dancing was really born in New York during the 1970s. At between 160 and 220 beats per minute, it is fast-paced and a fantastic workout.

Salsa is traditionally a dance between a man and a woman. As a result, it can help romance to blossom! Perhaps it is the spirit of the music, or perhaps it is simply the fun of salsa!

Is salsa dancing easy to learn?

Yes. Unlike more complicated styles of dancing, like breakdancing (or the tango), salsa dancing does not require complex upper and lower-body movement at the same time. If you’re new to dancing (or just not very confident!) you’ll be able to learn at the right pace for you.

But I’m not very fit!

While being fit certainly helps, you don’t need to worry about running out steam in your early classes. There are different levels of classes, according to ability.

I’ve already learned to dance Salsa, but I want to keep improving

If you already know how to salsa dance, or have taken salsa dancing classes before, there are also classes for improvers and skilled dancers.

Likewise, if you’ve already learned another style of dance and know what you’re doing, but just want to learn to specifics of salsa, choose a course that offers exactly the level that you need.

Taking a course in salsa is the perfect way to meet new people, make new friends, or have a lot of fun with the friends that you already have, all while keeping or getting into great shape. You can find salsa dance classes, as well as other dance classes across Ireland on the Courses.ie database.
