Do I need to bring a partner?
No. There tends to be a similar number of male and female students these days. If the ratio isn't even, we bring some of our more senior students with us to help balance things out.
If I come with someone, do I have to dance only with that person all the time?
Nope. To facilitate a very social environment, we constantly rotate partners. Unless students specifically choose otherwise, everyone dances with everyone. Among other benefits, we get to meet so many new friends that way.
Do I need to be a Nubody's member to join class, or if I am a member, do I get a discount?
Nope and nope. We only rent space from Nubody's. We don't teach on their behalf.
What should I wear?
Wear clothes that you feel comfortable dancing or exercising in. Many wear jeans and t-shirts. The studio is air conditioned, but salsa is HOT!
What about my feet? What should they wear?
Please bring a pair of indoor shoes to wear inside the studio to protect the wood floors from outside elements. Smooth-bottom shoes are the best for spinning. Sneakers with rubber bottoms will stick to the floor. You don't want that.
What happens if I miss a class?
Our program is very progresive. Many of the patterns you learn today will be built upon later. Missing classes might leave you feeling behind, however each class starts with a quick review of what we did the previous week. If you miss a few classes or are feeling quite lost (or if you simply want to get ahead), a private lesson often does the trick.
Lots of people teach salsa basics. Can you take me further?
We're so glad you asked. We have designed a functional syllabus to take students through beginner, intermediate, and advanced levels, with three sub-levels in each. On top of that, we have lots of workshop and private lesson topics at the ready. It's only a matter of how far you wish to take it. |
