Group Salsa dance lesson

Kiki_G, Jun 2026
Tremendous, excellent experience! The instructor, Andres, was amazing, not only in teaching the salsa lesson but also in explaining its history. He really took his time to demonstrate the steps. I greatly appreciated how helpful you were whenever there was confusion about the steps; the class was so much fun. I recommend this as a solo activity or something to do with your partners, friends, or even kids. I never knew I could salsa, but he made everyone feel capable. The instructor was very experienced, which I liked. It’s super friendly and overall a great time.

Corbin_L, May 2026
Bad experience. Uber driver got lost. Then dropped us off 2.5 km away from class location. Then Viator would not refund us. So. Minus 5 stars. If you are considering this excursion. Find a class with better location.

This is a great salsa dance class where you can start out knowing nothing, and leave feeling confident of your dance moves. We had a blast! Thanks for the fun class.

Micah_N, Mar 2026
We had a great time taking a salsa class in the park in Puerto Rico. Steven was an excellent teacher—easy to follow, full of positive energy, and brought really great vibes to the whole experience. He explained the steps clearly and made it fun from start to finish. I’d definitely recommend this class whether you’ve never danced salsa before or already know some basics and want to improve. My wife and I both had a blast!

Carol_G, Oct 2025
My sister-in-law and I signed up for this fun class during a recent visit to Puerto Rico. We felt so fortunate to have Steven as our instructor - especially since we had him all to ourselves. We appreciated that the class was not canceled and instead he enthusiastically and patiently taught us the steps and “signals” to prepare us for a night of dancing. We learned how to lead as well as how to follow so we can share our new skills with the men in our lives. Highly recommend!!
