Salsa Courses at SalsaIceland

About this event

SalsaIceland offers a broad range of Latin dance classes year-round, including both SoloSalsa and salsa danced with a partner. Classes are available as structured courses or drop-in sessions, making it easy for students to join based on their schedule and experience level.

SoloSalsa classes focus on energetic, music-driven routines without a partner. These are divided into beginner and advanced levels, with each instructor offering a unique teaching style and pace. Classes typically run for one hour and are available as full-term courses or individual drop-in sessions. First-time dancers are often eligible for free trial lessons.

Partner salsa classes are offered at Levels 2 through 6. Level 2 is a structured 10-part course, while Levels 3–6 are divided into four modules each (e.g., 3A–3D, 4A–4D), with seven sessions per module. Students are encouraged to complete all four modules before moving up a level, though the modules do not need to be taken in a specific order. Each level builds on technical ability, musicality, and partner connection.

SalsaIceland does not currently offer beginner-level partner salsa courses. Beginners are encouraged to start with SoloSalsa or private lessons, which are also available for individuals and couples. Students coming from other schools often begin with private lessons to receive placement advice.

Specialty topics like Rueda de Casino, Cha Cha Cha, Cuban Rumba, and demonstration technique are also offered throughout the year.

Drop-in pricing and discount coupon options are available for both SoloSalsa and partner salsa classes. All sessions are held at Danshöllin, Álfabakka 12 in Reykjavík, unless otherwise stated.
