Q: Do I need to bring a partner?
A: A partner is not necessary... During the partner session we swap partners every few minutes so everyone gets to dance with everyone else! Also, the first half of the beginners class is used to teach the basic steps: this is done solo, so the need for a partner is less in the beginners classes than the more advanced classes.
Q:What should I wear?
A: Anything in which you are comfortable doing light exercise... beginners classes are not too energetic, so no need for a track-suit! We recommend you wear shoes with soles that are not too soft so you can turn easily. Of course, if you already have a pair or dance shoes you can always wear those! (If you would like to try some dance shoes take a look at Chameleon on our links page).
Q: Do I need to book?
A: There is no need to book in advance - all our classes are designed to be 'drop in', which means that as long as you are at the appropriate level you can follow each class without attending in previous weeks. So if you have other commitments you can attend weekly, fortnightly or whenever it suits you.
Q: How much does it cost?
We charge £5.00 per lesson - We don't charge more if you decide to take both the beginners and improvers classes. The admisson for students and children under 16 is £3.00.
Q: Is there an age limit?
Salsa is for all ages, and people of all ages attend our classes - as long as you have no medical condition which prevents you from dancing you are welcome to attend. We do ask that anyone 16 and under is accompanied by an adult over 18 - the adult does not have to take part and we have seating and free refreshments if they would like to watch.
