These classes are open to all levels, although participants should already know the basics of salsa dancing. Classes will be taught using on2 timing, a.k.a. NY style salsa. Some familiarity with dancing on2 is recommended but not required.
11AM-1PM Musicality
This class is all about the art of truly dancing with the music. We'll explore how to move with different instruments (like the conga, clave, piano, and horns), and how to express yourself during different parts of a song—from the intro, to the groove of the middle, to the big finale. You’ll learn:
• How to identify and dance with specific instruments in salsa music
• Techniques to match your movement to musical phrasing and dynamics
• How to bring storytelling into your dance for the intro, main body, and ending of a song
This workshop is perfect for dancers looking to elevate their connection to the music and stand out on the social dance floor.
1-2:00PM Lunch Break
2:00-4:00PM Essential Drills and Techniques for Social Dancing
Refine your salsa partnerwork with this hands-on workshop designed to build technique, timing, and trust on the dance floor. Whether you lead or follow, you'll walk away with tools to improve your movement, communication, and style. We’ll cover:
• Spin drills to enhance control, balance, and precision
• Partnerwork drills to sharpen responsiveness and coordination
• Connection techniques for clear, comfortable leading and following
• Creative patterns that blend technique with musicality
Perfect for dancers ready to level up their skills and bring more confidence to their social dancing!
