Hi clc

I think your questions are all answered in the frequently asked questions. If there's anything else you need to know, post again.

is there anyone you know of who gives private lessons???

I expect any of the teachers in Cardiff would give you a private lesson if you wanted, but I don't think it would be cheap. I think it would be best to go to a few public lessons first and see which teacher you like best.

what interests you in salsa so much then??

Hi everyone,
We are looking for a salsa night club for our xmas do.....can anyone recommend a place? We are beginners at this, but love it!
Grateful for any suggestions!
Thanks

Rhiwbina Recreation Club (02920 693583 after 6pm) are having a Salsa Christmas Party on Saturday 18th December but it is also available for private hire though dates at this stage are fairly limited.

Candice,

For a salsa night "p*ss up" christmas do, the best place would be Bar Cuba on a tuesday. It probabily has the best party atmosphere.

Xmas is probably a bad time to head into the city centre for a Salsa do. Most of the bars suspend their Salsa evenings as they can make more money by catering for Office Parties. Went to Bar Cuba last year in the run up to Xmas no room to dance and 4 deep at the bar. Mind you that was the same in most places I visited.
