This Advanced Beginner (Beginner Level 2) series is a bridge between beginner and intermediate, ideal if you’ve taken a handful of classes, completed a beginner course, or have danced socially and want to keep growing without feeling rushed. This class is ideal for dancers who: -Can recognize the difference between Salsa, Bachata, and Merengue rhythms and feel comfortable with the basic steps. -Want a supportive, structured space that adapts to the group’s level and interests, focusing on partner work, turns, and confidence building. -Are interested in building confidence and connection through movement and joy in a welcoming, gender-inclusive, community-centered space. If you’re still getting comfortable with rhythm, basic steps, or differentiating between styles, we recommend starting with our Beginner Series - Level 1 first: Lapena.info/SBM BONUS: All participants receive one complimentary entry to ¡BAILA! , La Peña’s monthly dance party featuring live salsa, dance classes, and DJs.
