SATURDAY SUPER INTENSIVE CUBAN SON & SALSA WORKSHOPS
October 12 at 5:00 pm - 9:00 pm
£18.00 – £33.00Learn Son Cubano and Salsa! Have Fun and Meet New Friends!
All levels are welcome! You don’t need any prior dance experience, and there’s no need to bring a partner. Many people come solo, and we rotate partners throughout the lesson, giving you a chance to practice with others. If you prefer to stay with your partner for the entire class, simply inform the teacher, and we’ll be happy to accommodate you.
Every Saturday, we offer a 3 hour Intensive Cuban Salsa Workshop from 6pm to 9pm. The class is split into 3 levels based on your dancing experience. If you’re new to dancing, we recommend joining our beginners’ group.
Several times a month, typically every other week, this Intensive Workshop becomes a 4 hour Super Intensive. We start with Cuban Son from 5pm to 6pm, followed by Cuban Salsa from 6pm to 9pm. Both are suitable for all levels.
📌3 Hour Intensive Cuban Salsa from 6pm to 9pm – EVERY SATURDAY
📌4 Hour Super Intensive Son Cubano and Salsa from 5pm to 9pm – EVERY OTHER SATURDAY – Next Dates: 28th September, 12th October, 9th and 23rd of November and 7th of December
What is Son Cubano?
Son Cubano is a beautiful style of music and dance that originated in Cuba in the late 19th century, combining Spanish and African influences. It is considered the father of Salsa. The clave rhythm, often seen as the heartbeat of Son, is essential for dancers to understand. Learning Son will help you become a more advanced dancer by improving your sense of music, timing, posture, and overall style.
5 Benefits of These Workshops:
– More time to learn, understand, and practice the moves.
– Bridge the gap between levels and progress faster.
– Focus on body movement and adding personal style.
– Gain a deeper understanding of dancing to the music.
– Extra time to socialize during and after the workshops.

If you’re looking for a Salsa club in London, this might not be the right event, as we don’t host a social dance after the workshops. However, we do have regular parties and socials after lessons at other locations, so be sure to check our events. Most days, we also head to a local pub after the workshop to grab a drink and socialize.
You don’t need to book in advance to join our Salsa & Bachata dance lessons, socials, and parties. You can reserve your spot here or pay cash at the door.
