Studio Classes
Salsa Reno is a comprehensive salsa dance training program. The goal is that students of Salsa Reno will feel confident to go out to local salsa clubs and clubs in the Sacramento and San Francisco area for social dancing. For party lessons please see the event listings.

What level is right for you???
Everyone comes to Salsa with different dance experience.  When coming into a new program it can be difficult to know where to start. Our goal is to help you find the right level for you. If you are a new student of Salsa Reno and you have previous salsa dance experience, please start with the beginning class and then talk with BB of Salsa Reno about placement. We have no problem with you trying out a couple of different levels in order to find the right one for you.

On Tuesdays we will study the roots of the current Cuban style of salsa. Forms of Casino, Guaguanco, Son and Rueda will be covered. We will also dance to the sound of Timba music (the new salsa sound from Cuba).

Beginner (Tuesdays 6 pm)
In this class we will cover the foundation of Casino style dancing with moves such as guapea, dile que no, enchufla and vacila. We will use Rueda to practice these moves. After a solid understanding of those 4 moves you will be encouraged to attend the next level.  Intended to be taken 4 to 8 times (depending on experience).


Beginner/Intermediate (Tuesdays 7 pm)
In this class we will always warm up with beginning moves of some of the roots of the current Cuban style like, Guaguanco or Son.

Intermediate (Tuesdays 8 pm)
We will come back to the technique of the foundational moves as we learn challenging arm wraps and fun style.
