Salsa – Beginner Course

Come and learn the famous Cuban dance – Salsa!

La Candela is excited to invite you to take Salsa Classes with us. The Beginner level course, where you could dance Salsa within a few weeks. The objective of the course is to bring you to a comfort level so you could dance to the beats of salsa with a partner or in one of the many Latin clubs in Berlin.

The course concentrates on Cuban Salsa, the original famous dance. We will learn the basic technique of the couple dance, which will provide you both the skills to start dancing and a solid foundation to continue and become a great Salsa dancer.

Our courses are led by professionally trained & certified Salsa teachers. We have the structure and methodology to allow every person to dance, even if you think you have two left legs.

We also have a very engaged community which we hope for you to get to know and be a part of. Throughout the course, we are likely to go out together dancing together, to practice and have fun.

How does it work?

The Beginner level has two “Blocks”. Each Block is 4 classes of 75 minutes.

You can start with Block 1 or Block 2 – it doesn’t matter.

Who is it for?

The course is for complete beginners. No prior knowledge of dancing is needed, just bring your feet with or without rhythm and you’ll be taken care of 🙂
