“Everyone should learn Salsa it’s so much fun and great exercise” Alesha Dixon Strictly Come Dancing Champion
“Salsa dancing is classed as a high-intensity cardiovascular activity which can burn up to 450 calories an hour!” The Guardian Feb ‘08
Our Salsacise class is a great way to learn these fabulous Latin dances in a fun relaxed environment without worrying about a partner. We haven’t changed the dances into an aerobics version, so you’ll learn the actual dance steps from the Salsa experts – put together into a 50-minute dance workout.
Reggaeton, Merengue, Zouk-Lambada, Cha Cha, Mambo, Salsa, Bachata Tango, Samba, Jive, Disco, Charlston & more!
The dance steps are easy to learn so you can follow along and put some Latin attitude into your hip sway. Using a fun blend of sexy salsa dance moves you’ll burn the fat, keep fit and tone your body. Feel the rhythm and say ‘adios’ to the usual routine of boring gym workouts! Salsacise classes every;
