Suppose you decided to learn Salsa and because you were intrigued by it when you saw people dancing the same at a social setting. Salsa, Bachata and other Latin Dances are a social dance forms, that means at the place where these dance forms originated, namely Latin America, it has been danced in a social form and hence its a social dance.
Many shops in Mumbai, where I live claim to be The Number 1 in latin and ballroom dances, well from my first hand experience as well, these claims prove to be nothing but a marketing line as with all other products and services being sold economy.
If you do join these shops, they will take around 2000/- rupees per month from you and teach you 1 step in 1 hour. Now unless you are incredibly stupid you could learn a lot more than just 1 step in an hour. These shops will teach you Salsa ...so slowly... so that they can milk the cow for a long time. This is wrong morally and ethically.
The best way to do it is to use Youtube, yes there are many guys and girls on youtube who teach , faaaar better salsa and bachata to you than these guys will ever will and that too for free. you can learn far quickly all the various steps in Salsa for free which you would have otherwise paid upwards of 30K,40K or even 50K. You can try the "SalsawithSilvia" channel on youtube which is free and teaches you far better. But do no go to these shops if you love and respect your time, money and self-esteem.
After you have learned that, you can go to Shiro on every wednesday Nights to see these Latin Dances such as Salsa, Bachata, Cha-Cha being danced and also enjoy yourself too.
