ATTENTION: CHANGE OF VENUE – MOVING TO ADÉLIE STUDIOS
Our weekly classes are moving to Adélie Studios, 121 Chesterton Road, CB4 3AT, permanently from Sunday September 8th. https://www.adeliestudios.co.uk/
Adélie Studios is offering a large space and a clean wooden floor, and is a space run by dancers for dancers. Through a collaboration with Adélie, we hope to achieve more weekly stability and to have enough space to spread the levels more evenly for you – overall better conditions to support your dancing journey and to have lots of fun! The studio is equipped with party lights so the social will remain a great party moment. There is no bar but you are welcome to bring your own non-alcoholic drinks. Parking can be found along the surrounding streets, particularly Chesterton road, and should be free in the evening (but please read the little signs). We hope to see you there for the opening of a fantastic dancing season with us at Adélie Studios! 😃🎶💃🕺🏻🎶

Why our salsa classes are the best:
The classes are about you, not about us: we care about helping you to progress with your dancing in a safe, fun and friendly environment.
You progress at your own rhythm, no competition/no pressure, you do it for your own personal growth and enjoyment – it is about discovering your inner dancer while having pleasure in the practice and making new friends in the process!
Quality everywhere, no compromise on anything. Our teachers are trained with referenced professional masters and have full liability insurance. We play music on a high quality sound system and the venue is well ventilated: we care about your comfort.
Please feel free to contact us if you have any question!
Kellie started training with Sacha in early 2013 and has since attended many international festivals and training camps, including RuedaFest, SBK and more. Her explanations are superclear, she is a mover with an amazing positive energy and her footwork choreographies have made a name for themselves. She is also the group's master decorator and cake-maker. (Yum!)
Rachel
Salsa Instructor
Rachel joined the group in 2017 after being intrigued by the music and the dance at one of our street demos. With an extensive background in ballet dancing since childhood, the raise in her salsa dancing abilities has been absolutely stellar! For the past couple of years she has been following intensive AfroCuban training as one of Luanda Pau's Performance Group students. As a former school teacher, her teaching style is patient, supportive and loads of fun!
