These regular events are a fun way for the public to dance the night away whilst getting in the mood for summer. Recent Absolute Salsa nights at Derby Dance have been sell-out successes, so people are advised to book early to avoid missing out.
Hosted by Lee Hunter, the 2007 Number One Salsa Dance Teacher in the UK, and the Absolute Salsa team, these regular club nights offer the biggest and best salsa experience available, within a great sociable atmosphere.
The evenings are strictly salsa, with Lee and the rest of the Absolute team providing fun-packed 45 minute lessons in the New York style of salsa at the start of the night. The lessons are suitable for everyone from complete beginners to improvers and once everyone has learned the moves, they’re let loose to dance until late to hot Latin beats delivered by top DJ’s in two dance rooms.
On the night there will be drinks offers available, with a relaxed and sociable environment in which everyone can learn and enjoy salsa.
