"Cuban salsa is a fun and invigorating way of having a great time".
Nice words, right?... but what does it really mean?
Well, have you ever watched people on the dance floor or in movies and thought 'it looks amazing, but I can't do that'. The fact is some people learn easy than others, but the good news is that either way the process is amazing fun and there is nothing stopping you from trying! So what is there to loose?
In High Five Salsa we would love to introduce you to the great fun that is cuban salsa (a.k.a. "casino"), in which YOU get to dance, meet new people and get an awesome cardio workout.

And just in case if you still have any doubts, let's continue killing some myths:
Myth 1 - Thanks but... I haven't got any rhythm.
You can learn it. Trust me you really can. Depending on your starting level it might take some time, effort and dedication (and definitely some lots of practice and listening to the right music!!) ... but it is certainly possible and we can give you the tools to learn how to do it if it does not come naturally to you!
Myth 2 - Thanks but...I've got two left feet.
Nope you haven't (at least anatomically speaking!). And even if you feel like that, we can show you how to move them, at a pace that works for you.
Myth 3 - Thanks but.. I need a partner and I don't have one!
Actually you don't need a parter: we have a great mix of people, either coming as couples or coming on their own. Also, and lots of our dancers want to try both to lead and follow which gives us lots of flexibility to try to match our couples and we always try to make make it happen so you don't have to wait to dance with someone during our lessons.
