Salsa Classes

Salsa is a Latin American dance style that is arguably the most well-known of all the Latin dances. While there are a variety of Salsa styles available to learn (New York Salsa, Cuban Salsa, Puerto Rican Salsa, Columbian Salsa, etc), at Tromsø Salsaklubb we teach L.A. Style, which is the most widely practiced the world over. This style begins with a forward step on the first beat of the music, and is danced in a straight line.

Ready to jump in to the exciting world of Salsa? Then this is the place to start! In our Salsa beginner course, we help you to learn the basic Salsa steps and patterns through solo work, partner work, and lots of repetition. These are nice, easy moves that will allow you to hit the dance floor within just a couple of classes, and by the end of the course you will have all of the basics required for further development firmly in place. Feel free to come alone, with a partner, or bring your friends!

If you feel you’ve got the basic steps and techniques down, then join us in the Salsa intermediate class. Here you’ll learn longer and more complicated combinations, simple tricks and awesome moves. This is a class that no salsa lover can afford to miss!

At Tromsø Salsaklubb, we generally have one intensive Salsa 1 Weekend Course and one intensive Salsa 2 Weekend Course per semester. These courses are typically 3 hours on Saturday and 3 hours on Sunday, and include a dance party on Saturday night. Check our timetable for dates!
