Like the fresh bloom of spring as the shoots of new life break out of the earth, September brings new dancers to the salsa clubs and classes in London. There is the tangible anticipation of excited students, keen to learn, which in turn enthuses the regulars into honing our skills, leading, following and gently guiding.
What I'm trying to say is that the relatively quiet season is over and you should go out and have more fun, meet some new people and dance off any excess you may have put on during the holidays.
If you are new to the salsa scene you are about to discover lots of benefits. Over the coming months LondonSalsa.co.uk intends to be your companion and perfect resource. We'll try to find you the perfect teachers for you and hopefully even have the double left footed amongst you confident to dance at the bigger parties in December. Enjoy learning!
