ESTILO CUBANO SALSA DANCING

Estilo Cubano was founded in 2004, and since then has been proudly sharing the heart and soul of the Cuban music, dance, and culture. In October 2018, Estilo Cubano was awarded a “Certificate of Recognition for the Contribution of the Development of the Cuban Culture in South Africa” by the Embassy of Cuba in South Africa.
 
As a dance school that aims to maintain the authenticity of Cuban salsa, we don’t conform to the western choreographed idea of this dance but rather stay true to its origins where freestyle dance is encouraged. Our classes, given by dance instructors who have been trained by Cuban dancers, are structured to ensure that our students grasp the fast-paced steps of this type of salsa quickly and easily in order to progress to more advanced levels.
 
We take pride in watching our students develop at all levels; giving them the attention they deserve through fun, friendly and authentic dance classes.
 
By sharing our professional knowledge and passion for this Caribbean culture, we have managed to create a multi-cultural community of both local South Africans and Expats who are fanatic about music and dance. Apart from the weekly classes in Johannesburg and Pretoria, we organise Salsa Social Parties that provide our students with the perfect platform to practice what they learn in the classroom.
 
Estilo Cubano has been the only dance school in the country to pioneer relations between Cuba and South Africa. Since 2015 our school has been organizing annual Trips to Havana to learn how to dance Salsa, and to be exposed to the authentic Cuban Culture. We also organiseTrips to Croatia to the Croatian Summer Salsa Festival in Rovinj, a unique festival that celebrates salsa music and dance to the max! Attendees can participate in workshops given by the best Salsa, Bachata & Kizomba instructors in the world and every night enjoy parties led by world-class DJs, Latin bands, and international dance shows.
