Forget the price. No other learning avenue is this cost-effective.

Testimonial: I worked through the unit on body movement (yes, there's an entire unit that guides you through building it up, piece-by-piece.) and practiced my basic a ton like they suggest. Aside from that, I've only made it through the “Absolute Beginner” unit of partner work. I have no partner to train with. Social dances are my partnered practice. At the “Latin Night” last night, one of the best follows in the room enjoyed our dance so much she gave me a huge hug afterward. [Results may vary.]
Review: The Dance Dojo's Salsa program (combined with going to social dances) is far and away the most economical way to build up your skill at dancing salsa. The only more effective method would be private lessons that probably cost the price of the entire program in just a couple months. Sure, there are all kinds of videos on YouTube that show moves, but Dance Dojo has far more, and the depth of technique taught is almost always superior. But the program is so much more than a bunch of moves. Even those are helpfully arranged progressively. Beyond moves, the program is amazingly holistic, with everything from units on musicality, shines, tips for social dancing, and even a general unit on setting and pursuing goals. If you want to be a better salsa dancer, this program needs to be your cornerstone.

Great knowledge

On Salsa primarily and it has been one of the best investments in my dancing and self ever. Patrick and Scarlet are my heroes, and they are top top notch!

Very Good Dance program

Hello ,

I really enjoy this program. It is the first program I have tried. I have learned a lot and am continuing to learn. The videos are very straight forward, to the point, and easy to understand. I have invested every day learning from Dance Dojo and I am seeing improvement overtime and I am very optimistic about the future of how my skillset will be in the upcoming years. I am proud to same that I am a complete beginner at Salsa and almost ready to learn intermediate level of bachata and salsa. I recommend this to everyone wanting to learn. You can learn on your own time from anywhere.

Great Fun!

Patrick and Scarlett deliver a program that's challenging, but easy to follow with their in depth lessons that can be watched over and over again until someone like me can get it right. These are all moves, styles, suggestions that can be taken to the local salsa dance party and have a great time with. The online format means we can learn at our own pace and review as much as we need to get comfortable with the moves. It's great to watch pros like Patrick and Scarlett have such fun and make it look so great and effortless. After a month on the program, we're looking forward to moving from the basics into the more advanced moves. We've spent only a little time with Bachata so far, but it looks very promising!

Fantastic value and excellent instruction

This course is amazing! My husband, who all his 60-year life thought he did't have rhythm and couldn't dance, is finally able to understand it and is enjoying learning to salsa! Robin's instruction on finding the beat and the one in music is so so helpful. Patrick's explanations and demonstrations of salsa steps and moves is super clear and manageable. We are thrilled that we signed up for this course! Just finished the absolute beginner section and am looking forward to the more advanced beginner part. Thank you, Robin, Patrick and Scarlet!!!

I love it!

I recently joined the program. I can practice dancing every day at home even alone. There are lessons a lot that I want to learn. It's excellent that they teach me how to dance well (and elegance to me)! Thanks to Robin, Patric and Scarlet, their videos always show many tips and make me feel confident, so I can enjoy dancing with a partner! XD

The best way to learn!

I am amazed by how I am building everything into my dancing from the ground up. I notice how much more I can do at group classes, and how natural it feels to learn new things. Completely recommended!!

Exactly what I was looking for

The team does an amazing job of breaking down the technical and "soft skills" of dance. Great platform for both new and experienced dancers to improve their skills and experience in the Latin dance scene.

Finally a logical structural way to lear Salsa!

I researched lots of websites and videos and stuff, and found this approach the most interesting in terms of pedagogy, it suits someone like me who is probably not naturally the most creative, but more analytical and logical, and I find a lot of structure and logic in each lesson which helped me already improve. I specifically like the structure of each lesson, step by step, upper body and foot work, plus partner work as well as the tips. Also the other sessions just talking about the etiquette, the way you handle yourself and others, it's a great way to learn also the culture of Salsa dancing not only how to dance it! Highly recommended :-)

Has been very helpful.

Hey Robin. My experience with the course so far has been quite informative and helpful. I've been doing salsa for a year and a bit now, and learning stuff from even from the beginners lessons I didn't know that has helped my timing, leading and move sets in my dance. The only negative feedback I've been told by my dance practice partners is Scarlett wears to much black and it makes it hard to follower her movement, but she very stylish in what she wears. hahaha.

Thank you!

The course if very valuable. I've only gone through a little bit of it but it definitely helps. I'd be more frustrated in my in-person classes without it for sure. I'd love to see even more on breaking down salsa music, the instruments and the beats you can dance on in both shines and partner work. For example, trying to hear the clave and dance on that or following the bongos. The biggest challenge I have is hearing the instruments correctly. I can dance on beat mostly but it feels like luck, and mostly just hitting the 1 and 5 and filling in the rest with timing rather than truly hearing and feeling the 2 and 6. I'd love to be more fluent in that language. And will get there with a lot of salsa listening! Thank you!

Just finished the Body Movement Module

I have FINALLY learned how to do the Chest Circular Movement. I can only do it in one direction, but I never thought I'd get it. I'm so excited to try to bring that movement out onto the dance floor and really start to play with the music!

The best online classes for Salsa & Bachata!

I love very much the Dance Dojo's "Salsa & Bachata Course Bundle". It is designed for beginners like me. Very well organized and very easy to follow. I feel even better than the in-person classes as I can always review it over and over when I need it. It's definitely THE BEST online course for Salsa and Bachata in the market! Highly recommended!

Great way to continue learning if you don't have much time

I love the lessons and content. I have a young child and don't have time to go to in-person classes, but want to continue learning. So I signed up so we can dance with my wife after we put our child to sleep whenever we have time.

The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is that I don't love the video player they use, but that's a minor issue. The lessons are very well made and structured and that's what matters to me.

Very detailed explanations

Great teachers who give very detailed explanations that really make this course shine. They place great emphasis on aspects that are completely overlooked in other courses (online and in person).

Teach my Middle School Students!

I was looking for a program, curriculum or dance program for beginners since I wanted to introduce to about 150 , eight graders . Looked online all over and for e moment startled panicking . Nonetheless, when I discovered Dance Dojo taught by professional Salsa , dancer , I was mesmerized. Both instructors break down all steps, movements , rhythm to anyone who is barely learning . I showed some of the beginning videos to the eight graders and I believe it was very useful . Furthermore, the men’s and women’s movement or steps are show individually which enhanced the classes . The music for beginners was perfect for my middle school students and at the end , I felt proud and successful. I give credit the the easy to follow videos provided by Dance Dojo and highly recommend the instructors . Hopefully, the Salsa instructors will make an appearance at my school which is located in LA. Que viva la Salsa !

Quality over quantity, plus etiquette

By far the best dance instructors I have ever seen (they are professional dancers) , and I have searched all over the net and been to many classes. It is technique that will enhance fun on the dance floor, coupled with etiquette for the delicate balance between lead and follow.

Great, thank you very much!

For almost 6 weeks I have been taking a live salsa group class as a beginner and I really enjoy it, but now I want to improve my technique and musicality.
For this reason I searched the internet and YouTube for an online salsa course and after a lot of research and testing I came to the conclusion that only Dance Dojo offers this know-how and good quality. The excellent methodology and structured approach to learning Salsa really convinced me.
Another reason to become a member of Dance Dojo was the possibility to better feel the rhythm of the music, which, besides technique and choreography, is what really makes a passionate Salsa dancer.

Now I am looking forward to starting the Salsa course with Patrick and Scarlet.

Best regards from Zurich

Rolf
