What Dancers Say About Salsatropical Dance Company Ltd.- Salsa & Bachata Classes

4.9/5 from 272 Google reviews.

We did a private couples salsa lesson with Tsvetan.

This was our first proper salsa lesson, and after the 2 hour class with Tsvetan, we were blown away by how technical the dance style is. However, Tsvetan made it palatable, and we really enjoyed the class. He gave us many useful hits and tricks both for the lead and the follower in an intuitive way.

I highly recommend it. And from a beginners point of view, I felt like the private class and the undivided attention really helped us to understand the basics a lot. We will definitely be going to the group classes after seeing how good of a tea— Steeve George

If you are considering to take dancing classes I would fully recommend SalsaTropical. All staff are very welcoming, the atmosphere is fantastic at which I leave the classes always wanting more! They provide range of classes at difficulty from beginners to advanced level so everyone will be able to find their place.

As a beginner I was very sceptical of going on my own. When I finally did, I can only regret that I haven't joined earlier. Marian and Tsvetan have provided great support to push me to Intermediate level. Even within a group they are able to track all individuals in the class and g— Maks Zoltanski

I wanted to learn salsa for a few years and finally googled schools in the area 3 months ago and booked a 30 minute tester class in Salsa Tropical. After my 30 minute tester I purchased 2 months of unlimited salsa and bachata classes and am now going 3 times a week every week as it is the best hobby/passion I've ever had.
The teachers, management team and students are amazing and we have become an incredible community of friends who support each other and regularly spend time with each other outside the classes.
I can't recommend Salsa Tropical more and looking forward to many more months/year— Elena Cheker

Maria is an excellent passionate global dance teacher who I have had classes with for approx 6 months! I had ZERO dance experience. We started partner work early and I felt really comfortable partner dancing with her and she never made me feel bad if I didn't know what move to do next for example! At the same time I knew she expected me to know my moves. Every class was FUN because Maria is easy to talk to and fun to dance with and I looked forward to all of them. I learnt the footwork and different steps and in each class she added something extra or something extra to a move we had already — John Kale

Frequently Asked Questions

How hard is it to learn salsa?

The basic salsa step is quick to learn, but the dance rewards ongoing practice as you add turns and styling. Most students feel able to dance socially within a few weeks of regular attendance.

Can a non-dancer learn salsa?

Yes, and many students start with no dance background at all. Beginner classes assume nothing and build the fundamentals step by step.

What is the best Latin dance for beginners?

Salsa and bachata are both excellent starting points, with bachata often feeling especially forgiving thanks to its steady, side-to-side rhythm. Trying a beginners class in each is a good way to see which clicks.

Is Latin dance good for beginners?

Very much so, as Latin styles are sociable, energetic and built around repeatable basics that newcomers can grasp quickly. They also make for an enjoyable way to keep active.

How long before a wedding should you take dance lessons?

A couple of months ahead is a comfortable window to learn and rehearse a first dance, though shorter routines need less. Contact the school to plan around your timescale.

How many dances do couples do at a wedding?

Typically couples prepare one first dance, though some add extra numbers. What you do is a personal choice you can discuss when arranging lessons.
