What is the minimum age?

You must be aged 18 plus.

What should I wear?

Light comfortable clothes are advised and a change of top may be advisable.

Salsa is normally danced in partnership and in close hold. Please note personal hygiene is paramount!

Ladies should wear comfortable shoes that they will be able to learn to spin in.  Trainers are therefore not advised. Likewise, for the men, smooth soles are preferred.

Who will be there?

Of course the salsabristol.co.uk team will be present. 

The age range of students will be around 22 to 50 with exceptions on either end.

Will I be fit enough?

People from all walks of life attend salsa classes and courses.  If you think for any reason you may have a problem, please consult your doctor before enrolling.  People with average fitness should be fine.

Do I need a partner?

The simple answer is no.  Classes are structured so that people rotate throughout.  This is normal in most styles of dance for many reasons.  For example, it provides a great ice-breaker and allows you to meet people you may wish to dance with at Latin parties, everyone needs to learn to lead or follow different individuals and this starts in the classroom and of course many people come alone.
