Wedding Dance for Couples Private Dance Class

I started Colindale Salsa, Bachata & Fitness in April 2025 with the aim of bringing people together through dance and movement.Latin music and dancing have always been part of my life. My mother is from Bolivia, so I grew up around Latin music, social gatherings and dancing from a young age. However, I began dancing salsa and bachata more seriously in my early 20s. What drew me in was not only the music but also the people. The dance community is incredibly welcoming, and I quickly realised how powerful dance can be in bringing people together.I’ve now been teaching dance for over 8 years and have taught more than 1, 000 students. During that time, I’ve taught and performed at large events and festivals across the UK, including the Blackpool North West Dance Congress and the Plymouth Mega Dance All Dayer. I’ve also had the opportunity to dance abroad in places such as Kazakhstan, Spain and Poland.Alongside teaching regular classes, I’ve organised many dance and community events including MoveFest, salsa boat cruises, dance fun runs and “Dancing in the Park” events. I’ve also worked with organisations and institutions including the University of Plymouth, Middlesex University, the University of Brighton, Southampton University, Age UK and others.Colindale Salsa, Bachata & Fitness actually started in an unexpected way. After moving to Colindale in 2024, I bumped into a former student from a dance school I ran outside London over 8 years ago. She encouraged me to start something locally and began spreading the word about my previous classes. After several people asked about it, I made a post on Facebook to gauge interest. The response was positive, so I organised my first event in Colindale — and the community has been growing ever since.What I love most about teaching is seeing people grow in confidence. Many students come to their first class feeling nervous, but after a few weeks they’re smiling, moving more freely and making new friends. Students often tell me they appreciate how patient I am and that my classes are fun, supportive and full of positive energy.My mission for Colindale Salsa, Bachata & Fitness is simple: to help as many people as possible get dancing, stay active and be part of a healthy, welcoming community.
