Add salsa to sun and Londoners are nearly able to ignore the cost cost of living crisis, at least till the winter hits. Seriously, salsa is a value for money option when choosing a great night out.  Where else can you get an hour lesson plus a social with new friends, music and smiles for the cost of less than two drinks in a pub?
All of that and you feel healthier afterwards.

Why not grab a friend, do a lesson, enjoy the practice session, then let them take you out for a social at the weekend?

London Salsa believes that dance gives you joy but also thinks that sunflowers make people smile, whilst helping our bee highway, so are delighted to support the Sunflower Gang.

If you can't plant a real seed this year, why not plant a digital sunflower on the Sunflower Map.

Or simply smile whenever you see a sunflower this year.

Looking a bit into the future :The Richmond Latino happens on the first and thrid Sunday of each month, presented by Mundo Latino.

London’s salsa sensation Orquesta Mambarito, a lockdown band, sets the dance floor alight, with tracks designed for dancers!
Burning up red-hot classics from 70s New York, Cali Colombia, Havana Cuba, San Juan Puerto Rico, Panama City and beyond, they should be arrested for arson!
And now playing live in London, on their build up to performances in Hyde Park in September and the Off the Cuff Festival in October, their full diary from Peckam through West Norwood and Romford.
