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 be a salsa dancer within 8 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.
The course includes 8 lessons, each lesson 90 minutes. There is no need to come with your own partner, we try to start the course with a matching amount of men and women.
Our courses are led by professionally trained & certified Salsa teachers. We have the structure and methodology to allow each and every person to dance, even if you think you have two left legs 😉
Throughout the course, we are likely to go out together dancing (if it will be possible) to get to know the course participants and practice the dance in Berlin’s ballrooms.
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 🙂

Why with us?
There are plenty of alternatives in Berlin we are aware. But there is plenty of reasons to choose La Candela:
- Group Setting – We teach with a group that grows together. It allows us to feel more comfortable, get to know the people we are dancing with, makes sure we have a similar number of men and women, and grow together more efficiently.
- Start off with good technique – We love the dance, and we are highly experienced in the dance and invested in our methodology to teach it. If you ever wish to continue with Salsa as a hobby – the foundation we will give you will set you apart from other dancers in Berlin. It starts from the very beginning 😉
- We take you on a journey – It’s not just about the classes, it’s a whole journey. When you join us, you join a community, we go to different events together, and we become a family. Our biggest wish is to transfer this love we have for the dance.
