Welcome to Salsa Essex

Salsa Essex is the concept of Tony and Kylie Sheppard.

We have both been dancing Salsa for over ten years and decided to set up Salsa Essex so that we could share our love of dancing. We believe that Salsa is not only a fantastic way to make new friends and enjoy your leisure time but also a great way to keep fit!

Our aim is to teach you the right kind of dancing skills so that you can get "out and about" and enjoy Salsa on a social level, even as a beginner!

We teach a variety of Salsa styles, from Cuban Salsa and La Rueda to Cross Body Lead and LA Style Salsa. By incorporating the fundamental elements of these different styles we aim to teach you the basic skills needed to be able to dance with a wide cross section of dance partners.

In addition to Salsa we will introduce you to a variety of latin rythyms including Bachata, Merengue and Cha Cha Cha.

Over the years we have taken up other forms of dance and now offer additional classes in both Argentine Tango and Social Ballroom.

Our classes cater for all levels from Absolute Beginners with "two left feet" to the more experienced dancer, so whatever your dance ability we have a relaxed and friendly class that is perfect for you.

All of our classes are taught within a carefully structured syllabus but with the emphasis on having fun!

You don't need to have a partner to join our classes, just a sense of humour! 

So what are you waiting for? 

Come along and join us and start having some serious salsalicious fun!!
