What Dancers Say About Rhythm & Vibes Dance Co – Salsa, Kizomba & Bachata Classes in London

5/5 from 72 Google reviews.

Rhythm & Vibes Dance Co is a WHOLE VIBE @Salsa Temple!

By providing multiple different levels for their classes they make it easy to find the right entry point for you and will coach you through the levels as you progress.

They also host socials almost every night they run which is really unique to them and allows you to practice and compound what you learn in the lessons which is super valuable.

The teachers themselves are both excellent dancers and instructors. The vibes overall is always good humoured, energetic and fun.— Thino Shanni

Richard and Luisa bring so much fun and energy to their Kizomba and Semba lessons. They really focus on technique and make sure you have the foundations from beginner and improver classes before encouraging you into the intermediate level. But it's a relax atmosphere where people take their dancing seriously but not themselves! It's taken me a long time to find a school in a new city that is this welcoming and fun, and where i can't wait to go after a long day at work!— Alison Berner

One of the best Latin dance schools in London. Everyone is extremely friendly and in the few months I've been there I've made a ton of friends. The teachers are amazing and super approachable. In the 6 months I've been there I've progressed through two levels and continued to feel equally challenged and inspired by the teaching stuff while having a real sense of community and fun. Tuesday nights in Stockwell and Fridays in Tooting are my favourite. Highly recommend!— Polina Changuleva

Amazing atmosphere and amazing teachers. Thank you so much for giving me a warm welcome and having patience with each individual to make sure everyone got the moves right until teaching new moves. I am really happy to be part of this dacing family and thank you so much for all the lesson's and support you gave me to be where I am now.
I recommend to everyone who wants to learn new dancing style to join this amazing family.— ramona blanaru

Yes, complete non-dancers are exactly who the beginner classes are for. You start from the ground up and build confidence gradually.
