"It felt like I was in Havana"
When you walk into a Salsa te Gusta class for the first time, it doesn’t feel like a lesson, it feels like a celebration. One you didn’t know you needed.
The music is the first thing that wraps around you, warm, rich, unmistakably Cuban. Then the room hits you: people chatting, laughing, moving, clapping, like you’ve stepped into a real life Latin dream. One student described it perfectly:
“It felt like I was in Havana for an hour, even though it was raining outside.” – Dani, Level 1 student
But it’s more than the vibe. What sets STG apart is the feeling of being seen. From your first cross-body lead to your fifth unsure attempt at a Rueda call, someone’s cheering you on. Not out of obligation, out of joy. This is a place where growth isn’t silent. It’s celebrated.
We don’t teach salsa as a performance. We teach it as a language, one rooted in Cuban culture with a Dutch twist, meant to connect, express, and uplift. That means:
-
Yes, you’ll laugh (a lot).
-
Yes, you’ll mess up (also a lot).
-
And yes, you’ll surprise yourself, faster than you think.
Our classes are designed with care, progressive, clear, and always infused with music and meaning. You’ll learn the “why” behind the steps, not just the counts. And you’ll start to move from instinct, not just memory.
Outside the studio, our socials, workshops, and dance floors become home to something even bigger, community. Salsa te Gusta isn’t just about the dance. It’s about the feeling of belonging, rhythm, and release.

Your first class is just the beginning, but we promise, it’ll feel like a homecoming.
