Sensational Salsa Dancing in Buxton

Sensational Salsa is back in a new venue, The Old Clubhouse, next to The Opera House in Buxton.

Organiser Linval Smith says he is delighted with the new location. “It’s really central and there is a great atmosphere with the opportunity to enjoy a drink in the bar afterwards.”

The pay-as-you-go sessions are at the same time as before – every Tuesday with beginners’ classes at 7.30pm and improvers at 8.30pm. Says Linval: ‘We’ve had a few ups and downs recently and we apologise to those who have been missing their weekly salsa fix.’

Following an informal introductory session on Tuesday October 22, the classes start in earnest on Tuesday October 29. Classes cost £5 on a pay-as-you-go basis and there is also an option for book six weeks for a discounted price of £25.

Unlike high-energy zumba, salsa offers a slightly gentler form of exercise as new steps are marked out slowly before putting them to music. Says Linval: ‘By the end of the class, you will have had a real work out but it often doesn’t feel that way because you will have been so absorbed and having such a great time!’

The classes are suitable for adults of all ages and there is no need to bring a partner as pairs tend to swap around. There is also a follow-my-leader section where participants dance in rows behind Linval and dance partner Justine.
