During our talk/demo, there would be a minimum of 4 or 6 of our dancers attending, depending on the location and who is available at the time.

All our team members are experienced salsa dancers and those of us who are Cuban salsa teachers, have been teaching for up to 10 years.

Generally our whole talk/demo session would last just over an hour, although this could be extended if required, depending on circumstances and demographic.

We generally start with a brief talk about the history of Cuban Salsa and and its origins (takes about 10 mins), followed by two demonstrations of the dance itself both with partner dancing (parejas) and group dancing (rueda) (takes about 15 mins) and then finishing with a beginners lesson for anyone who wants to join in and give it a try (takes about 45 mins).

Our aim is to make it an enjoyable and fun evening for everyone.

About John Hansard

I represent a Cuban Salsa group called "Rueda Rosa Blanca" based in and around Yorkshire.

We are a relatively new group (2023) and we have been doing demonstrations and classes in Cuban Salsa, to several WI groups and dance groups in the NYW area. We are are also now listed in the 2024 speakers yearbook for West Yorkshire Federation of the W.I.

Our group consists of 14 experienced dancers (3 of us are salsa teachers) from different areas of Yorkshire, although there would be a minimum of 4 or 6 of our dancers attending each talk/demo, depending on the location and who is available at the time.

All our team members are experienced salsa dancers and those of us who are Cuban salsa teachers, have been teaching for up to 10 years.
