– Awareness of basic salsa techniques, their function and the feeling behind them
– Basic structure of Latin music
– Awareness of the human body and mind
– Applying basic techniques in shines and partnering
– Connecting to yourself, your dance partner and the space around you
– Feeling comfortable and creative in the context of social dance

This will make sure that the students become more aware of the different aspects of the dance and culture, to be able to enjoy it more and to become more relaxed on the dance floor!
With their passion for sharing their knowledge, Vivienne and Selwin know how to make others love this beautiful dance and culture in their own unique way.
