Many people would love to learn how to dance, but never get around to it in the belief that they have no sense of rhythm, two left feet, or do not have a dance partner.
We are therefore running a course especially for complete beginners where no dance experience or dance partner is necessary - 8.00pm Tuesdays. After a few weeks you should be confident enough to show off your new moves to your friends and family !
The main theme of this local salsa club is to have some fun. Many people come along just for the exercise, while others enjoy the social side of dancing. Some progress to our more advanced classes that run between 8.45 and 11.00 pm, while others have more modest aims – taking a well deserved break from the kids !
Just dress comfortably and wear regular shoes (it’s easier than wearing trainers). Be sure to turn up promptly at 8.00 pm each Tuesday evening.
General Information
The theme of the evening is simply to have fun and
costs just £6.00. A bar service is available all evening
and there is no need to bring a dance partner. The lessons are
structured so that if you are on your own, dance partners are
provided.
Two separate beginners lessons run at the same time
( 8.00 pm at Bisley) . One is for people that have never danced a step
of Salsa before in their lives, concentrating on a few extremely
simple moves. The other beginners lesson is for those people that
have had a few Salsa lessons and wish to learn additional beginners
moves. This structure ensures that a "beginner" never feels out
of their depth at any time.
Once you are happy that you know the basics, you
may progress to the next lesson. As with all
forms of dance, some people progress faster than others. This
structure allows everyone to progress at their own speed - choosing
the level they feel comfortable with and only progressing to the
next level when they feel ready to do so. Similarly if
a " improvers" wish to upgrade to the intermediate
lesson, they can do so by asking the teachers if they are ready.
Too many Salsa teachers rush through the moves and
expect everyone to keep up. We pride ourselves in running small
intimate classes, in which we take things very slowly and easily.
To us Salsa is about style and interpretation of the music, not
learning lots of fancy moves badly !!
Viktor is one of the most respected and sought
after dance teachers in the UK. His exciting style of Salsa combines
the best of New York Salsa, Cuban and LA. Above he is pictured
with his dance partner Carol on BBC's Strictly Dance Fever presented
by Graham Norton.
Salsa is probably the most sensual and popular Latin
partnered dance in the U. K. Viktor's unique way of teaching makes
Salsa very easy to learn - even if you have never danced a step
before in your life or are already reasonably advanced.
What to wear
The dress code is informal. There is no need for any special
clothing or footwear, just come along in something that you will
feel comfortable dancing in. Ideally your shoes show allow you
to turn around easily on the floor. Trainers for example do not
allow you to do so.
