Binfield Club, Binfield RG42 4DU

​

Join us for a series of classes aimed at both newcomers to Salsa and those who have danced other Salsa styles and seek a “fast” conversion to Cuban style and to Rueda.

​

Managed to Cuban principles, the classes are structured to help attendees realise their potential, be ready for further classes, to gain confidence to dance at public events and, of course, have fun!

General Advice

• Partners are welcome, but not mandatory, as there will be helpers to balance the men/women ratio, and you will change partners throughout the class.

• Comfortable clothes and removable layers are recommended, and do wear shoes with smooth soles to help you move and turn easily.

• Bottled water is a good idea.
