Latin Dance Parties
Entry is £8.00 per person;
Salsafeet play a mix of genres and styles with an emphasis on traditional salsa and bachata rhythms, tunes and songs with the occasional popular music. There is a pre-party Salsa class which is included in the price.
We DO take requests for a tune to be played. However, such requests should be made in advance, at least the day before the party date.
We don’t take requests for “Excuse me” dances as we feel this disrupts the energy of the party atmosphere.

Look out for new dates in 2024.

Hear what our students say about us:
“Having such a great time learning how to salsa and meeting new people. Namib has made us all feel so at ease and his and Dana’s teaching style makes learning steps easy and fun! I would highly recommend coming along even if you think you can’t dance it’s still fun getting those hips moving!”
“I have really enjoyed attending Namib and Dana’s salsa class. In just 10 weeks we have covered all the basic techniques. The class is good fun and very relaxed. Anybody would be able to come along and give it a go ???”
“Namib is a great teacher, I love dancing with him and I can only recommend him. I really enjoy classes with him, he has so much patience and a great selection of music.”
“If you are looking for salsa/bachata classes, give a shout to Namib. He’s got the passion, the moves and plenty songs. He learnt from the best teachers and he is happy to help you whether you are a total beginner or you would like to improve your moves. I can highly recommend him.”
“Namib instils confidence with his teaching style. I’d recommend Salsafeet. Namib has a passion for dance, amazing skills, and a friendly personality that makes learning to dance fun.

Beginners Class
The Beginners class has easy to learn steps which soon build your confidence and knowledge as you progess up a ladder of moves. Before you know it, you are dancing like you could never believe.
This class is an Absolute Beginners Course of 10 weeks, although it is still possible to join in the first 4 weeks of class. You can bring a partner if you have one or come alone. We change partners during the lesson although it isn’t compulsory. You will also learn other Latin dances as the weeks go on, mainly Bachata..
Footwear
Wear comfortable clothing and shoes for dancing and think about investing in some dance shoes for the future. Flat shoes are comfy but heels will put your weight forward onto the balls of your feet, which will assist your dancing and make your turns easier.
At Salsafeet we have a variety of ladies dance shoes available, from glittering diamante-studded at £45 down to £25 for economical practice dance shoes for classes.
Ladies Latin Dance Shoes
Your dance shoes should feel like a glove to your foot. You do NOT want any wriggle room in your dance shoes. They will stretch a bit once you begin using them. This snug fit allows your foot to connect better with the floor, giving you more control of your movement, balance, spins and will significantly reduce your fear of slipping and falling. You will wonder why you didn’t make the investment sooner once you experience the difference.
Typically, your dance shoe size will be the same as your street shoe size. If your foot is narrow, you should go down 1/2 a size. If your foot is wider you should go up 1/2 a size from your regular street shoe. Remember, you want them to be snug, but not painful.
Mens Latin Dance Shoes
Guys, think about investing in some dance shoes. They are lightweight and improve your footwork immensely. They are available in a range of styles, from sneakers to ballroom.
CLASSES/PRIVATE LESSONS
Classes are Salsa, LA style on 1 and Bachata with a fusion of Dominican, Spanish and Italian styles.
You will learn to dance with Salsafeet with an emphasis on social dancing while you make new friends and have fun while you keep fit.
Beginners Class
Improvers/Intermediate Class
No experience necessary as these are Beginners classes lasting 10 weeks, starting with the basic steps but it will surprise you how quickly you will advance though our expert tuition.
Private dancing lessons are available by arrangement. Individuals or couples, from Beginners to Advanced. We teach Salsa, Bachata and Bachatango.
The varying styles of salsa taught take their African roots to Latino influences from Cuba, Puerto Rica and Columbia chiefly, thrown in with modern western influences to produce an enjoyable melting pot of Salsa dance.
Salsa is a language interpreted through dance. As there are many languages, so too are there many styles of salsa. Within each style there are “dialects” or various interpretations or small differences you will experience as you become more proficient.
You are encouraged to embrace these differences and find what best works for you in your exploration of the international language of salsa.
Perfect timing and amazing interpretation of the music!
Their secret? Understanding of Salsa music.
We all love the moves and combinations of Salsa but before trying all the fancy moves make sure you can execute the simple moves and technicalities to the correct timing.
