Sueños de Salsa

Dance Teacher

Salsa and Bachata are some of the most popular dances on the planet. Salsa and Bachata are fun, flirty and sexy—and anybody can learn them! Let’s face it, everybody’s been inspired to learn how to dance at some point. Maybe it was a movie or TV show or witnessing some couple tear up the dance floor. We’ve all thought, “Wow, I wish I could do that!” But, you let the idea pass because you thought it would be too difficult, expensive, or you think you have two left feet.

There are no gimmicks, no shortcuts, no attempts to make you feel like you are a better dancer than you actually are, just true and honest feedback. The instructors want to make sure that you know your skill level, know that when you put in work you will improve, and know that you are working towards a realistic goal. They want you to be able to wow your girlfriend or boyfriend, perform for your friends, and enjoy yourself without making a fool of yourself. This focus on real results means that you will never feel like you are having the wool pulled over your eyes. Read more

    Michael is a fantastic teacher! Neither my spouse or I had any prior salsa dancing experience and his style of teaching is fun, effective, and now we've signed up for Salsa 2 because we want to keep learning from this place!

    Michael is a fantastic instructor, who has built an amazing studio. He has the perfect combination of technique, patience, fun, and challenge all-at-once. He is great at breaking down the fundamentals and important details in manageable chunks so that you feel both competent and motivated. He is friendly and non-intimidating for all levels of dancers. It is very apparent that he cares deeply for the individual growth of his dancers. His passion for dance and his students really shows. If you want to learn salsa/bachata, or further your skills, in a fun and nurturing environment, this is the place to be. Seattle is lucky to have such a great instructor. You won't regret it!

    I'm currently taking private lessons from Michael and also attend group lessons. He is a wonderful and attentive teacher. He is always patient and he provides the attention to detail and instructions that students need to help them become better skilled dancers. He's really helping me understand the mechanics and become a better dancer!

    I started this whole salsa "thing" back in March when Michael was still in Fremont. His charisma and ability to help his students understand rhythm, technique and musicality are what keep me coming back. Within 6 months I've learned so much from Michael that I'm considering joining a performance team.

    My boyfriend and I bought the groupon private salsa lesson and really enjoyed our experience. Michael is a wonderful instructor. He's great at tailoring the lesson to what you want to learn and is a great teacher. I would highly recommend him to anyone who wants to learn or brush up their salsa skills.
