Salsaduende……was established in 1992 to teach Cuban style Salsa and Latin dances. 
Always wanted to dance? Like the Latin music? ...“but I have 2 left feet, to old to dance. They will all be so much younger than me. I need a dance partner”….These are common phrases I have heard since I started teaching.  Salsaduende makes the experience, relaxed and fun so that you learn quicker. We rotate partners so you don’t need one. All ages on our courses. I can make one of your left feet, right!  I have a page with Salsa related videos here.

I am a beginner and found that Richard really takes the time to teach the rythym and basic moves before he builds. I found that by the end of each class I understand and am proficient in each of the steps/turns he teaches. Unette, Watford.
