Salsa Footwork Classes

Master the Dynamic and Intricate Footwork Style of Salsa Dancing with “On 2” Timing

Salsa on 2, also known as New York style salsa, is a distinct way of dancing salsa that is characterized by a unique timing and stepping pattern. In traditional salsa, dancers often follow the rhythm of the music on the first beat (also known as dancing “On 1”). However, Salsa on 2 shifts the timing, and dancers interpret the music on the second beat, creating a distinctive style that is closely associated with the salsa scene in New York City.

Level 2 & 3 – Wednesdays @ 8:15 pm
