With over 30 years of dance experience, a dance instructor develops a deep understanding of how people learn and express movement. Decades of practice, performance, and teaching refine not only their technical skills but also their intuition for each student’s unique rhythm, body language, and motivation. This wealth of experience allows the instructor to adapt their methods — offering personalised guidance that helps every dancer progress confidently, whether they are beginners finding their footing or advanced students perfecting their artistry.

Boost your knowledge with

1. Cuban Son (Son Cubano)
• Music:
• Originated in eastern Cuba (Oriente) in the late 19th century.
• Mixes African rhythms with Spanish guitar/melody.
• Instruments: tres, bongó, maracas, claves, guitar, later double bass and trumpet.
• Has a steady rhythm, usually slower than salsa.

• Dance:
• Danced in contratiempo (on the 2).
• Elegant, upright, and subtle with small steps.
• The couple stays close together, using a lot of weight transfers, pauses, and gentle body motion rather than flashy spins.
• It’s the foundation of salsa dancing.

2. Son Montuno
• Music:
• A development of Son, credited to Arsenio Rodríguez (1930s–40s).
• Adds a montuno section — a call-and-response between singer and chorus, layered percussion, and piano “tumbaos.”
• Usually faster, more syncopated, with more improvisation.
• This is the direct ancestor of modern salsa music.

• Dance:
• Still based on Son, but dancers open up more during the montuno section.
• Couples can break apart for despelote (freestyle movement), shines, and rumba-style improvisation.
• More room for rhythmic play and interaction with the music.
• It feels like the “party” part of Son.
