And Finally...
Despite the common assumption that salsa is restricted to the younger generation, you'll find all ages at SalSeduce - from those in their late teens to people in their sixties and seventies....there are no barriers or limits.
You do not have to come equipped with a partner. During the classes you are encouraged to rotate partners, and the majority of people come alone or with friends.
For a lot of people attending salsa is a way to relax from the demands of everyday life. It's an activity that you can pursue seriously or as hobby - either way it's the perfect activity to help you stay fit, meet people and have a whole lot of fun you never imagined.
Entry Price is £6 until 9:15pm, £3.50 thereafter - Students £5 until 9:15pm with a valid NUS card and £3.50 thereafter - see T&C's for further details.
