and well-respected dance tutor IVAN GARCIA.

SALSA FUSION blends together the steps and rhythms of salsa styles from as

far afield as Colombia, Cuba, Puerto Rico and New York.

SALSA FUSION incorporates precision, speed, and beauty of dance mixing Salsa styles

from across the Americas with Hip hop, Afro Cuban Jazz, Timba, Boogaloo and more,

breaking down the movements into individual steps.

SALSA FUSION is more than just expressing purely the melody, this newest style of

Salsa dancing interprets the musical instruments within the songs, hitting the trumpets,

bongos, timbales, congas, and all types of music flavours with dance movement

SALSA FUSION will take place every Sunday evening and provide a night of

high energy dance and authentic Latin vibes.

After the lessons finish at around 9.15pm we’ll be hosting BARRIO LATINO,

a Latin dance social where Ivan and guest DJs will be mixing the Latin rhythms
