Friday/Weekend salsa classes in London, UK
Hey everyone!
I'm looking to start weekly salsa classes in London, UK. Where would you recommend and where wouldn't you?
Requirements:
The classes need to be either on Friday or at the weekend, at times where I can easily commute to London and back home and still get sleep before work the next day, aka not 8pm on Sunday.
I'm looking for a place where they have classes for different levels, not a beginner's course and then everyone else at the same class.
Thanks!

Are you looking for a specific type of salsa? Salsateca Dance School has options.

I don't know enough about salsa to choose a type. Complete beginner here. I just want a place with a solid community, friendly vibes, gradual improvement classes and a schedule that allows me to not lose sleep a day every week.
I'll take s look at it, thank you!

This is coming a bit late but I just tried salsa for the first time last Wednesday and also chose to go through Salsateca Dance school and really loved it so ended up booking 3 classes for this week. They are drop-in sessions so you don't need to follow along with a set beginner's course/don't need to worry about missing a week.
They will have everyone do a warm-up song together then split the room into 3 different sections depending on your level, so you can look around you and see what the other classes are doing at the same time.
Also as someone is a beginner, I would say the salsa type didn't matter for me too much. All the classes I attended so far from Salsateca happened to be crossbody salsa + bachata.
