Salsa Practice (Sundays)

Meet up with friends, learn with your peers, try with different partners and practice, practice, practice! We've formed a community of Salsa dancers wanting to improve their skills without the stuffy club atmosphere. This is a great way to meet others looking to perfect those moves learned from group classes, private lesson or clubs. It's not a party and it's not a group class. It's 100% pure practice. Dance to a mix of non-stop Salsa music ranging from the classics to the most up-to-date at varying tempos. We may throw in a few ChaCha, Bachata, or Merengue to spice things up. Watch your salsa skills improve quickly with a little bit of practice! No need to early register. Just drop in and start dancing! Open to the general public.

Day: Every Sunday
Time: 4pm-6pm
Price: $5 per person

Latin Competitor Practice (Wednesdays)

This is an International Latin-only competitor practice session designed specifically for dancesport competitors in the latin style to fully utilize their practice time in an intense, competitive environment. The goal is to simulate real competition forcing competitors to focus and practice hard for 75 minutes and drive themselves to the max in preparation for the real thing. This practice is open to the general public. (Pro-am students are welcome. Just schedule your instructor for that time.)

Music will be controlled by a supervisor and will follow strict order of dances played. For the first 60 minutes, each of the 5 dances will be played 3 times in a row with each song at 3 minutes in length. The last 30 minutes will be 2 intense practice rounds with each dance played for 2 minutes.

There will be absolutely no music requests, no breaks, and no nonsense during this time. Lights will be dimmed for the ultimate practice atmosphere. We recommend participants to come at least 15 minutes earlier to start time to take care of payment, change, and stretch.

Day: Wednesdays
Time: 9:00 PM - 10:30 PM
Price: $5 per person
