Dance2Salsa has secured a fantastic venue located in the prestigious grounds of the Bird Hills Golf Club. This venue has a great wooden dance floor, massive parking, a seated area overlooking the dance floor, same area bar and is easily accessible from junction 8/9 of the M4.
We will have 5 levels of salsa classes for absolute beginners through to advanced dancers followed by party and dancing through to 1.30am
At 8.00pm, there will be 2 Levels of Salsa for absolute beginners and beginners level 2, plus 2 levels of Kizomba with Dan & Melissa (Level 1) and Sa'id (Level 2)
Sa'id hails from Siera Leone and is a detail-oriented and dedicated 'Kizombeiro' whose love and knowledge of the dance, music and culture spans
the various forms of Semba, Pasada, Coladeira and Tarraxinha. Once a protegee of the masterful and renowned Kizomba Professor Kwenda Lima, Sa'id transforms and
interprets Kizomba from a casual social dance to an experience which connects the dancer to the music to become one and the same. Sa'id has been performing and teaching Kizomba since 2007
at congresses throughout Europe. He currently lives and teaches mainly in London.
At 9.00 there will be a salsa class for level 3 improvers taught by the D2S team, an intermediate level 4 salsa class taught by Kathy Towersey, and an advanced salsa class taught by guest teachers Michael Pottinger & Maxine.
Michael Pottinger is the founder of "Smooth Salsa" and has been teaching people how to dance salsa in the Midlands for around 14 years with his
dance partner Maxine Stephens. Michael & Maxine are renowned in Birmingham and the Midlands for their detail in the technical aspects of partner work
and for their humorous teaching style. They are regularly invited to do guest teaching spots and have taught salsa at some of the UK's biggest annual salsa events and congresses.
Classes will be followed by party & dancing to some of the freshest, funkiest afro-latin sounds around played by resident DJs Basil, Tony & Simon and a debut performance by the D2S student team Fuego.
