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.

What are the advantages of repeating the classes?
Over the years, we've witnessed undenyable evidence that repeating classes grants students much more understanding, competance, and confidence when putting new skills to use both in class and on the dance floor. Ever watch a movie twice? Notice how you see things the second time you didn't the first? Same deal here. The first time through, students often focus on learning the steps. The second time through, students can work on the other important elements that make people great salsa dancers: rhythm, body movement, fluidity, lead/follow communication, styling, etc. You'll also get to meet more people, as you will share classes with those just ahead of you and those just behind you. More classmates = more friends.

Makes sense to me, but do I have to repeat every class?
Nope. Beginner1, Bachata1, and Bachata2 don't have to be repeated.
