DANCE STYLE
DESCRIPTIONS
We are highly committed to our students having a great learning experience. It may take a little patience to make sure you learn the basics in each of the dances you chose before advancing to higher level classes but it will be worth it!
SALSA ON 2
Salsa on 2, also known as "New York Style" salsa, is a vibrant and dynamic dance style that originated in the streets of New York City. Discover the art of seamless partner connections, where you'll communicate not just through touch but through shared rhythms and emotions. Unleash your individuality as you spin, shine, and weave intricate footwork patterns, making the dance uniquely yours. Salsa on 2 is a fusion of cultures, an expression of joy, and a journey that promises to be as exciting as the city that birthed it.
BACHATA
Originating in the heart of the Dominican Republic, this dance form exudes an irresistible blend of sensuality and storytelling. With its intimate connection between partners and intricate footwork, Bachata transports you to a place where music and movement intertwine, creating a dialogue of passion and expression. As you sway to the melodic tunes and embrace the art of leading and following, you'll discover the joy of sharing a genuine connection through dance.
MERENGUE
Merengue, a lively and exhilarating dance style hailing from the Dominican Republic, is a perfect choice for anyone eager to embrace the world of Latin dance. With its infectious rhythm and straightforward steps, merengue offers a fantastic entry point for beginners looking to dip their toes into the realm of dance. You'll be swept up in the music's energetic beats, forming connections with your partner and fellow dancers through the shared excitement of this rhythmic journey.
