About

Salsa Bristol is one of the South West region's longest-running Salsa and Latin dance schools. Over the 16 years we have been running, we have had students from all walks of life and ages (from 18 to 70s!). Besides running our weekly classes, parties, and special events, we have taught at charity events, primary schools (including children and adults with special needs), and even Red Arrows pilots!

Salsa Bristol's founder recognised how daunting it could be to go from a beginners' level to "improvers" – as a result, we were one of the first to bring in "jumpers" lessons to bridge the gap between these dance levels.

Wayne

Wayne and ClareWayne started dancing salsa in 2006.

Not being the fastest learner, he found it hard as a beginner to learn the turn patterns, keep the timing, lead the leads and think about what move to lead next without putting in 10 or 20 mambos first.

 

Clare

Clare fans 150x150pxClare has been dancing since she was a young girl before joining Salsa Bristol in around 2010.

She progressed quickly, joining the team as a teaching assistant and eventually making her way to the "top" as the lead teacher, taking beginners and jumpers classes at our weekly events and teaching at Salsa Bristol's monthly parties at Fry's. Clare also teaches private lessons for individuals, school children, parties, and other functions.

Andy

AndyIn 2009, Andy had a sudden urge to have a go at dancing, and after finding an advert for Salsa Bristol, which was just down the road from him, he went along to check it out.

Before he knew it, he started lending a hand and soon became one of the team. Over time, his responsibilities increased to where he was helping to run Salsa Bristol. Andy is now the longest-serving team member of Salsa Bristol.

Tom

AndyTom is the latest addition to join the Salsa Bristol team, and is already a valued member, helping in the many areas needed to run our weekly classes and bi-monthly parties.

At the start of 2023, a work colleague convinced Tom to join our Beginners 8-Week Salsa course, and his Salsa journey began. Little did Tom know how much a part of his life, Salsa would become.
