FAQ's
• Can I join any time? You'll want to join in the first few weeks as each week is progressive.
• Do I need to be there every week? ideally you do as we teach sections of a routine each week, but if you miss the odd one it shouldn't be to much of an issue.
• How is it run? We will be running these as we would run a normal salsa class.
• Can I use tricks any time? No, You will learn 'performance moves' such as neck-drops, slides and lifts are for performing and are not meant to be used for social dancing. Many Salsa venues ban these sorts of things on social floors as they are meant for performing only.

General Tips:
• Social dancing. Consider this an important part of your training. We are after good leaders and followers, this is the best way to get experience.
• Listen to salsa music in your own time. It helps with timing & you will gain more appreciation for this fantastic music. It will show in your dancing too!
• Practice in you own time, it makes all the difference - even if its a minute a day! We will also have slots opening for extra practice times once the second studio is open.
• Keep up with regular classes, the most important is the Improver level. Mastering this level will boost your dancing & help your technique & partnering skills. Highly recommended to do this level more than once.
