Queer Salsa Beginners Course
Our mission is to foster connection, celebrate diversity, and empower the LGBTQ+ and Latinx communities. We achieve this by creating safe spaces for queer people to learn and dance, developing an inclusive pedagogy to train dancers and teachers, and hosting events that centre queer Latin American culture and voices.
Cuban salsa (Casino) is where salsa began, born in Havana's social dance halls, circular and social rather than linear. Rueda de casino takes it further: a whole circle of synchronised couples swapping partners on shouted calls - think Simon Says, but salsa!
Every class splits evenly between footwork, partnerwork, and rueda calls, so you leave each week with something new in all three.
For tickets and further information please check Queer Salsa's website.
