Salsa in the capital is booming midweek, with lessons for all levels and social dancing

Bar Salsa Temple is home to bachata and cali style salsa on Monday evening.

A brand new absolute beginners salsa 4-week course starts on Tuesday in Northfields with Pexava.

Whether you need to find your way into salsa with a free intro to dance lesson on Tuesday, or fancy a lesson in salsa or bachata or simply want to guest list dance the night away, Bar Salsa, Temple, have special offers aplenty.

A free first time salsa lesson is offered on Wednesday in Hammersmith.  Why not grab a friend colleague or family member, take any of the other levels of salsa, then join your beginner friend on the lively social dance floor?

There are many special offers on Wednesdays, including a free intro to salsa session at Bar Salsa in Soho for those in the centre of town.

You can find all classes and events that are listed on LondonSalsa.co.uk also on the Global Dance Card app. Everything that appears on any of our sites, including UKDance.Events and UKSalsa.Dance, is actually posted by the teachers and promoters.

Our disappointment is that not all choose to list but may do so if you mention that it is totally free for your favourite host to add their lessons, parties, band nights, troupe performances, workshops, holidays, weekenders and courses.

Throughout May and into the future there are some fabulous opportunities to dance and often booking early gets you an early bird discount or something really quite special.

For instance Sunday May 19th, you have the opportunity to take the Thames Salsa Cruise.

Happy dancing one and all, 

Leigh and the LondonSalsa team
