10/10 would recommend Salsa Papi dance lessons! As a beginner, I took salsa and bachata classes with Raul and Demi, and they are both absolutely amazing instructors. You really can't go wrong with either of them.
For those of us who are newer to these styles of dancing, Demi breaks down the basic steps in a way that is so fun and easy to follow along. She does an excellent job tracking the class's skills and knows just how to slow down or speed up the lesson to match where everyone is at.
Then in Raul's lessons, he shows you how to elevate your dancing by teaching you how to dance with a partner and giving you tailored, specific tips for looking smoother and more confident while moving. Raul's consistent positive energy makes classes with him such a blast. He is also the most talented lead I've ever danced with; he can guide anyone, regardless of their skill level or amount of prior experience. Dancing with him is always a guaranteed great time. Because Raul is extremely kind and supportive, he creates a really warm and comfortable environment for learning and improving.
These classes are perfect for anyone who is just starting out or looking to improve their salsa or bachata. Raul and Demi help you master the basics and build confidence in a way that's really fun and accessible. Classes with them are such a great experience that the time just flies by. By the end of each class, I was sad that it was over and excited for my next lesson!
I would recommend Salsa Papi lessons whether you're living in Miami or just visiting, and whether you're by yourself, with a partner or with friends. Try them out and you won't regret it! read more
