We are always on the look out for new dance partners male & female. Must be keen to take it a level further into couple competition & and possibly go as far as to train to teach. |
 Level: you will need to know 'some' salsa, but not essential if you have done form of dance training in the past. Even beginner Salsa dancers have gone through to the audition previously |
Benefits:
• Become part of a salsa team that is social and fun to be in.
• Get trained to a high standard - you will look great on the social dancer floor and performing.
• Learn the tips and tricks, big moves 'arials' that we don't teach in our normal salsa classes.
• Improve your fitness and confidence.
• Get extra assistance for competitions either in teams or couples. |
About the Auditioning:
• We will be running auditions as we would run a salsa class.
• A combo from a routine will be demonstrated & taught and we may partner you with someone and swap partners. Note that this might be recorded on video for our reference.
• Some of the current Salsa team will also be assisting and participating so you will learn faster.
• Please be aware that you may learn 'performance moves' such as neck-drops, slides and lifts are for performing and are not meant to be used for social dancing.
• No enrolement needed, just turn up. |
Selection Process:
Participants may be selected on the day. We also may hold more of these throughout the year if you don't make it in this time, keep up the practice because you can still get in. Determination to do well will be noticed. |

General Requirements
... if you make it through the Audition
