A new six week cycle of Salsón Salsa Classes with Melissa and Peter at the Historic Y (located at 738 N. 5th Ave) starts Wednesday, January 18th. We're teaching a Beginner class and an all-new Intermediate/Advanced class for this cycle. We'll meet for six consecutive Wednesdays ending Wednesday, February 22nd. Each class lasts one hour and ten minutes. Beginner class is from 6:30 PM to 7:40 PM. Intermediate/Advanced class is from 7:50 PM to 9:00 PM. The new Intermediate/Advanced class will add key elements of body movement and musical accents to connect and frame the spaces between 1, 2, 3 and 5, 6, 7 and add more advanced partner moves to your repertoire. We hope that some of you who have previously taken Intermediate classes with us and felt comfortable with that level will join us for the all-new Intermediate/Advanced class! If you found yourself struggling at the Intermediate level this would not be the class to take as the material will incorporate more advanced concepts and move at a faster pace. If you haven’t had classes with us before but feel that you are an intermediate level salsa dancer ready for the next challenge we warmly invite you to join us for the first class (as described below) to check out if it’s right for you.

No need to register, but if you're thinking of taking the class it would be great if you could e-mail Peter at pchipello@yahoo.com as that will give us an idea of how many students to plan for in the space. The cost is $50 for the six week session payable by the second week of the session. You can come and check out the first class of the session for $10 during the first week if you want to test drive the classes before committing to the six week session. We'll credit the $10 towards the $50 balance of the session. If you can't make it the first week you can still sign up for the remaining five weeks at $42. Enrollment will be closed after the second week however, as the class syllabus is progressive in nature and we build upon what has been learned in the previous session.

Classes are held in The Historic Y building at 738 N. 5th Ave. (University Boulevard between 4th and 5th Ave). Note that the classroom location is on the second floor studio at the top of the stairs. If you enter the building from the 5th Ave entrance doors you'll see the stairs straight ahead at the back of the lobby.

We've missed all of you and hope to see you again in class Wednesday, January 18th!
