Cuban Salsa partner dancing by our instructors

DANCE4WATER STYLES

We offer classes in Cuban salsa, LA salsa and NY salsa, bachata, kizomba and hip hop.

CUBAN SALSA

Cuban salsa is a fun and sociable partner dance. It can be danced either in a couple or in a ’rueda de casino’, a large circle with multiple couples.

BACHATA

Bachata is a partner dance originating in the Dominican Republic. The basics might seem simple, but the music, intricate footwork and smooth turns give the dance flavour.

NY SALSA

New York salsa is a smooth crossbody style. It pre-dates its flashy cousin LA salsa, retaining links to its mambo roots.

LA SALSA

LA salsa is a fun, flashy and fast paced couple’s dance with lots of spinning and cool tricks. It is danced in a line with dance partners switching places continuously.

KIZOMBA

Kizomba is a sensual couple dance originated in Angola. Although there are many styles, we will teach you ‘Fusion Kizomba,’ a combination of traditional and modern moves.

F.A.Q.

Do I need to register?

No, all of our classes are drop-in. That means you can join whenever you want and don't have to let us know beforehand.

When do the classes start?

Classes start on the 24th January 2022. Check the timetable to see all the classes, times and venues.

What level is right for me?

Our beginners classes are aimed at those who have never danced before, but we always suggest that newcomers start with our beginners classes, irrespective of their previous knowledge. Already an experienced salsa dancer? Feel free to jump straight into a more advanced class straight after your first beginners class. If in doubt, just ask any of our friendly instructors to help you find the right level specific to you – we are always happy to help!

Do I need a partner?

No, you don't need a partner to join our classes. Just bring yourself and dance with us! We guarantee that you'll meet lots of amazing people!

Is there a dresscode?

No, you can wear anything that is comfortable for you. T-shirts, jeans and trainers are usually the best.
