LEARN SALSA at ISLAND HEALTH & FITNESS 🏖 We’re offering a NEW 4 WEEK SERIES starting Thursday June 15th: Beginner Level 1 at 6:30PM and Salsa Suelta at 7:40PM. No Partner Necessary ∙ Couples Welcome ∙ Gender Free: All Welcome to Lead or Follow. Descriptions below.  See You at Island‼️

THURSDAY EVENINGS June 15th - July 6th

BEGINNER SALSA IN LINE & PARTNER with RUEDA DE CASINO LEVEL 1

LEVEL 1️⃣ 6:30-7:30PM
Level 1 is for new students and those seeking review. Here we teach a set of 20 steps needed to dance Salsa individually, as a single couple, and amongst multiple couples in a Rueda de Casino. These include what we call “The Scales of Salsa” & “The Octagon,” additional turns and sequence drills, and the cross-body lead combinations “Dile Que No” and "Dile Que Si.”

SALSA SUELTA CUBAN DANCE WORKOUT 7:40-8:40PM🇨🇺🇺️
Salsa Suelta is a “free style” line dance creat in Cuba. Here, we teach the timing, steps, and flow of Salsa using the back break as the basic, and integrate steps from other Cuban dances, including Rumba, Mambo, Cha Cha Cha, Son, and Pilon. We use these movements to build fun, low-impact cardio dance sequences that improve your health and prepare you to shine on any dance floor. All levels welcome!

INSTRUCTORS
Michael Luis Ristorucci and Yamará
