Join experienced dance instructors for Latin Night at the Larcom Theatre, where you’ll learn the vibrant rhythms of Salsa. Known for its passion and sensuality, salsa is a lively fusion of Latin American and Caribbean dance styles enjoyed around the world ​​​​​​​​​​​. No partner required for any class; partners will rotate during instruction.
​​
Our dance floor, located on the Larcom Theatre stage, features a Marley floor made of rubber material. Sneakers are acceptable for the first few classes, but as we progress into turning techniques, we recommend wearing dance shoes or shoes with felt on the bottom for smoother movements. For attire, wear anything that makes you feel comfortable. You do not need to dress up.
"I'm so glad we have something like this locally! Thank you so much for making this a reality, and bringing the love of dance to more people."
​
" Love the class! The folks attending all have a great attitude making it work well when we pair up and rotate"
​​We extend a special invitation to men to join, as their participation will help ensure a robust presence of potential partner leads. ​

BEGINNER 1A
Tuesdays, 6:30 PM or Thursday, 8:30 PM
This class is open to everyone! Whether you're new to Salsa, have never tried it before, or are transitioning from On 1 to On 2 timing, this Beginner Class is perfect for you. The focus is on mastering basic dance steps, understanding salsa timing, building connections and frame, exploring partnering elements, and learning the basic moves for patterns, including left and right turns, and the cross-body lead. No previous experience is necessary.
BEGINNER 1B
Tuesdays, 7:40 PM or Thursdays 7:25 PM
This class builds directly on the Beginner 1A series and is ideal for dancers who have learned the fundamentals and are ready to gain confidence and consistency. There will also be a FOCUS on the ‘Leads’ for proper footwork and leading techniques, to become a better leader, needed to lead more advance moves in the future. You’ll continue developing On 2 timing, strengthen partner connection, and expand on basic patterns including turns and cross-body lead variations with proper techniques. The focus is on smoother transitions, musicality, and dancing with greater ease and control. Completion of the Beginner 1A class is required before enrolling in this class.
ADVANCED BEGINNER 1C
Thursday, 6:20 PM
This class is designed for dancers who already know the basics and are ready to refine and gain salsa skills. Participants must be comfortable dancing ON TIME with the On 2 Rhythm, and able to lead or follow left turns, right turns, and the cross-body lead. To enroll in this advanced class, you should have completed Beginner Class 1A & 1B or have equivalent formal training or experience. Please note: if you currently dance only On 1, you’ll need to start with the Beginner 1A class.
