What we’re about
Whether you're an absolute beginner or a seasoned dancer we're offering affordable lessons and quality social events for our group! No partner? No problem! We welcome both singles and couples -- no dance experience necessary.
We organize Salsa, Bachata, Kizomba, Brazilian Zouk, West Coast Swing, Latin Hustle, and Ballroom dance events, primarily in the City of Edmonton.
We take the safety of our attendees very seriously and strive to have a fun/welcoming environment for all levels of dancers, regardless of which studio they may currently train at or what their background may be. Anyone can lead and anyone can follow, we do not gender roles at our events.
Note that we do promote events by other organizers in our group where they have asked us to do so and we feel their events would be a good fit for our group's members. Where that is the case, we will have the organizer's contact information listed in the event details.
