SALSA: New York Club Style Salsa "On1" and “On 2”. We concentrate on developing solid rhythm and timing first, and then expose the student to patterns, turns, footwork and styling. The elements of the dance are taught through shines (footwork) and partnering. The “NY Style” is a combination of the “On 1” and “On 2” systems. The timing of the steps are on the 1-2-3, 5-6-7 as in “On 1” but the breaks (where the body changes direction) occur on the 2 and 6 as in “On 2”. NY instructor Eddie Torres developed this step pattern around the late 70s and the 80s.
 

CUBAN SALSA: The original salsa style, as considered by most, which has been developing in Cuba since the 1950s. Cuban-style salsa can be danced either “on one” or “a contratiempo” – the latter is often referred to as “on two”. An essential element is the “cuba step” (also known as Guapea), where the leader does a backward basic on 1-2-3 and a forward basic on 5-6-7. The follower does the same, thereby mirroring the leader’s movement.
 

LATIN BALLROOM: Cha-Cha, Rumba, Samba and Bolero. Experience the different rhythms of each dance. An emphasis is placed on both connection with your partner and musical interpretation.

HUSTLE: Hustle originated in the streets of the Bronx. This is true clubstyle hustle the way it was meant to be. Learn to make your turn patterns flow.  See pics

AMERICAN BALLROOM: Social Foxtrot and Waltz. We'll help you to feel comfortable on the dance floor of nightclubs and social events.  Learn how to keep the rhythm of the music in sync with your partner.

CHA CHA: Club-style Cha Cha with basic foundation steps, footwork and turn patterns. We concentrate on developing solid rhythm and timing first, and then expose the student to patterns, turns, footwork and styling. The elements of the dance are taught through shines (footwork) and partnering. Your Cha Cha will never be the same.

TANGO: Both American and Argentine styles taught. Lessons are designed to allow the student to enjoy themselves socially.
