Then I had a friend who…read moreblessed me with a dream to dance!I've heard about La Rumba for years, but I never had the cajones to actually show up and get your groove on! I also had a goal to get over dance anxiety, embrace anxiety and Salsa/ Bachata dance lessons were my ticket to shine!! Street parking and a cover fee at $15.00 for 1 hour dance lesson, a dress code requirement and an entry to dance the entire night! The people are alive and very friendly and super comfortable being okay with two left feet. These dance lessons have some wonderful dance instructors and they make the two left feet in me want to come out and find my rhythm. La Rumba is 21+ with a full bar with dance floor. The restrooms and dance hall are super clean-- they have a VIP dancing area! The lights, the music make me escape from the every day 9-5 day job! I love the fun, the rebellious dance lessons and sexy swaying in all of us! The best part is being yourself. This isn't like Dancing With The Stars!! Everyone is here to learn, from all different ages, backgrounds of dancing, no dancing at all-- you name it! Everyone is here with a purpose. The goal is to keep coming! Don't give up!

The other reviews mention the bathroom attendant, she was really kind to me, unfortunately she doesn't take Apple Pay/Venmo, just cash but I know that's part of the experience. Make sure to dress up, dance and have fun, I'm grateful for the amazing music, the beautiful beats. All of the workers were welcoming and even gave some great advice. Hope the experience can be matched if not surpassed for everyone reading this.

Wow. Before Gabriela, I'd gone to ten or so lessons with three different tango teachers in the…read moreDenver/Boulder area, but often couldn't remember very well and kept getting overwhelmed and unable to do it. It seemed like I could maybe eventually learn tango? This was different... Gabriela gave the beginner class some great fundamentals on how to stand and breathe and move, then drilled the basic steps in a way that I actually could completely remember them (that's unusual for me), then had us practice a ton with different people -- great turnout and gender balance too. I stayed on for the intermediate level class because it was actually repeatable and memorable. This woman is incredible: running to greet each person individually at the door with warmth, DJing great varied music, giving simple understandable & memorable coaching, speaking loudly and audibly over the music in an awesome accent, demonstrating with her back to us to avoid left-right mixups, and putting people on the spot with coaching in front of everyone, but everyone gets it. Love the studio's size: it has mirrors and couches and authentic tango posters. It got a little warm, but the open door let in cold night air, which I prefer over A.C. The men do tend to wear dress shirts. $15 for 4+ hours of as much learning & practice & music as you have the stamina for.

I will firstly start off by saying that I despise how much the cost of concerts/live entertainment…read moreand items at concert venues is. Like everything it makes it tougher to go out and enjoy yourself. Despite that I do think overall as an out-of-stater visiting Denver, my wife and I enjoyed the concert at Fillmore. We came for the Sleeping With Sirens show and had a great time! The line to get in even after a half hour after doors was one of the longest lines we have waited in. Despite that it did stay moving almost the entire time. Also once inside the venue was significantly larger than we expected so we understood a little more why the line was so long. Staff were all so friendly, especially the member of staff/security we spent a good part of the night near. Despite not being her genre of music she seemed to appreciate the music and felt a little more human than most staff/security at shows. Also she offered up water if we needed any and handled a situation of someone passing out nearby extremely well and calmly. Someone who cared about people's well-being. Concert-wise the venue had great sound quality and really had no negatives for our experience. Like I mentioned above prices for drinks was outrageous but it's unfortunately how concert venues work nowadays. Would return for a future show when we return to Denver!

The show was hilarious, the venue was super clean, and both the audio and views of the stage were excellent. The only reason I'm taking off one star is the seating situation. Some of the floor seating consisted of what looked like basic lawn chairs rather than actual theater seats. For a venue like this, I would have expected something a little more comfortable, especially when paying for floor seats. Other than that, everything was great! Parking was surprisingly easy, with a parking garage conveniently located nearby. When I arrived, there were tons of people entering the theater, so I expected long lines for food and drinks. Surprisingly, the lines moved quickly, the prices were fairly reasonable, and I was able to grab something and make it to my seat without any issues. The theater was well maintained, the staff kept things moving efficiently, and the overall atmosphere was great. I had an excellent view of the stage, the sound quality was fantastic, and Gary Owen put on a great show! Overall, a really enjoyable experience at the Paramount Theatre. Upgrade those floor seats to something more comfortable, and this would easily be a five-star venue!

Colorado New Style is a dance studio just outside of downtown Denver. It is located near industrial…read morebuildings so it is a bit secluded but don't let that deter you from coming. CNS offers free intro to Salsa and Bachata lessons. Yes, that's right. I said FREE! The classes run on a 10 week program. Each week builds off of one another so it is important that you take classes from the beginning if you are a beginner. Classes for each style are offered twice a week. Salsa is on Tuesdays at 6pm and Thursdays at 7pm. While, Bachata is on Tuesdays at 8:30pm and Fridays at 8pm. It is not necessary to attend both classes every week because they cover the same thing but it is offered so you can get some extra practice in. I would recommend going to their website to make sure you are starting at the beginning of the 10 week program so you don't get lost :) I have only just begun taking lessons and love it so far. I have also gone along with friends who dance Salsa and Bachata regularly (some competitively) and they only have positive things to say about it. It is great for dancers of all levels to go to hone and refresh your skills. On top of the free classes, they charge packages for higher level dancers. More information about that is available on their website. The instructors are very skilled, attentive, and give individualized attention to everyone even in large classes! If they see common mistakes among their pupils, they are quick to correct it which I find extremely important. They are also bilingual and are willing to instruct the class in both languages if there are any language barriers. I highly recommend these classes for anyone interested in learning Salsa or Bachata - or even if you want to get some extra practice in without the awkwardness or pressure of social dancing!
