Why people love dancing with us?
Professional Dancers & Teachers
International-level teachers and a clear methodology that helps you progress with confidence.
what makes us professional?
We love, live and breath the dance
Our teachers have vast experience and knowledge in the dance. We love it, we continuously discover it, and we love sharing our passion. We teach the dance authentically and with a lot of respect to the dance – and that will make a big impact on the dancer you will become.
Professional teachers
La Candela teachers are either highly experienced teachers or trained certified teachers. They are also dancers of international or top national level. That allows us to guarantee clear instruction that is both easy and fun – making ideal place for you to grow.
having fun with it – is part of being professional
The essence of dance is joy. So for us, being professional means also having fun. While we can sometimes focus on technical things, this does not mean we are not going to have a blast.
Learning that actually works
Closed groups, progressive material, and balanced partner rotation so you can focus, learn, and feel supported.
what makes it great?
closed groups – progressive material
Many of our classes are in the format of courses. That allows you to connect with the group, but more importantly – have progressive classes where the teacher can build on top of what you know and take you to the next level steadily and fast.
Dance partner
We don’t leave pairing for luck. We make an effort to have a reasonable balance between leaders and followers (typically, men and women). And we switch partners often. That means you will be dancing more! And you don’t necessarily need a partner of your own.
Structured classes
Our classes are carefully designed for your progress. Each class brings you closer to becoming your best-self dancer and feeling more comfortable with the dance.
A vibrant international community
Dance, connect, laugh — people from all over the world sharing the joy of Salsa.
what makes it fun?
beautiful & active community
We have a beautiful community that surprises even us in many times. We dance, we party, we go to international events and concerts – and we do it all together. It’s a very active and welcoming community – and you could be a part of it.
International vibes
As we teach in English, our students are of various nationalities. It is an opportunity for us to enjoy it, but also to open our minds and learn from each other. We believe this is the right environment to learn Cuban dance, as learning these dances is also about accepting a new mindset of another culture to your life.
Conditions that make dancing a delight
International-level teachers and a clear methodology that helps you progress with confidence.
what makes the difference?
Top music quality
Our sound system is top-class. The music is clear, and every instrument can be heard. When your body hits the right note – it just hits different.
Great parquet
We have an amazing parquet crafted for dancing. The floor is perfectly smooth but not slippery. We also have a cushion layer under the floor. All of these will help you dance better and keep your knees in better shape.
Beautiful studio
Call us petty, but we love to dance in a beautiful space with a great atmosphere – and that’s our studio.
