Beginners Cuban Salsa class has a new structure now. It will be a casino footwork/partner work class. There may be some time for rueda at the end of the class, but the idea is to dance one-on-one to achieve technique. I will have the list of the 9 basic moves on the wall and use video recordings of you to assess and offer feedback. Each session will be focused on 1 to 3 of the moves listed below until it can be done with 1-hand connection, 2-hand connection, no-hand connection, finding the beat, effective dance communication for both lead and follow and arriving in the right positioning for casino and rueda de casino. If I see you have mastered all the 9 moves listed below, have found the beat, mastered good dance communication with your partner, I will invite you to the intermediate level class.
Criteria for Beginners to master before entering intermediate level casino/rueda:
- Leads & Follows walking forward (minimizing the BACK STEP)
- Keeping time with the music
- Leads & Follows need to know the 9 basic steps and know their positioning in the rueda with the following moves:

There will be no announcement about it on the Dancessense Studios webpage as I am only renting the space for a specialized level of casino/rueda.
If you have done casino/rueda before but you are rusty, please do not enter the intermediate level until I have given you the green light to enter. If I see you struggling in the intermediate level class, I will kindly ask you to step out of the rueda and sit it out and will provide you feedback what you need to improve on. I may ask you to return to the beginners rueda class. My rationale for this strict rule is to improve the transition from beginner to intermediate level of casino. Plus, it disrespects the intermediate level casino dancer who paid me a fee to be challenged. My hope is that we as a San Diego Casino dance community can truly improve our technique with casino.
