I had signed up because I wanted to learn more salsa and above all. Get to know the bars where I could dance salsa. Unfortunately I was the only participant and I learned to dance salsa solo. Five basic steps, of which I already knew at least 2. But the teacher was great. After the lesson we were supposed to go to a hotel to have a cocktail, but that didn't happen and so did the whole tour (which is what I actually came for). As compensation I was allowed to take 2 lessons at the academy the next day, 1 bachata and 1 salsa lesson. Well, that's nice, but that wasn't the intention. I wanted to get to know bars and be able to dance figures with a partner. But the bachata lesson was far below my level and I didn't learn anything there. When the salsa lesson started I had so much pain in my calves that after watching the beginning of the lesson I decided to leave. I definitely wouldn't learn anything new there either. In the end this was a disappointing experience for me. So if you can already dance salsa and/or bachata San this is not recommended. Certainly not if you can't do the whole tour. And that was exactly my intention. Learned nothing and 28 euros poorer. I could have better spent that on a private lesson. I'm not saying that this dance academy is bad, but for me this was not what I wanted.
