Cuban Salsa
Classes Manchester

As a lead, starting Bachata seven months ago felt very intimidating. And the learning curve was just honestly so overwhelming at first. The people and coaches are what made me stick with it. They're top-notch and create an amazing energy and atmosphere, which really helped ease the tension. In particular, shout-out to Smaïn and Justyna for such good vibes on the Cuban Salsa side! All the Bachata coaches are amazing, and I can't possibly mention them all. Still, I gotta give a special shout-out to Jerry aka Royce and Karen. I love how technical and precise they are. And super patient with my (hundreds?) questions every class 😅 Can't recommend Floridita enough. Simple as that!

I was really hesitant to join, as I had no previous experience in dancing and not particularly skilled. I decided to bite the bullet and commit to a full cycle of beginners bachata. The first lesson was overwhelming, as I could not even do a basic on beat, but by the 4th class I could not believe how much I had improved. Jerry is a fantastic instructor and the individual feedback that he gives during the lessons makes all the difference. I really like the friendly and relaxed atmosphere, being able to have fun while learning. The groups are very diverse and welcoming. If you have never done any dancing before, commit to a full beginner's cycle with Floridita and you won't regret it.

Some people teach you steps, and some make you fall in love with dancing. Smain and Justyna have that special magic! Their passion for salsa is contagious, their explanations are always clear, and they have a wonderful way of making everyone feel welcome and included. No matter your level, they always find time for you and make learning enjoyable. Great teachers, amazing energy and an atmosphere that makes you want to keep coming back. Floridita Dance is a special place!

I've been coming to Jerry's classes since I was a beginner and now can lead and follow. The atmosphere is always exciting and the mini socials are lots of fun! I would definitely recommend Jerry's classes for anyone looking to learn bachata in Manchester. I have the membership which also has the perk of private lessons every few months which are very useful.

Amazing teachers a great atmosphere and it's easy to pick up love the pricing of it to it's a great time

Brilliant sessions with great instructors. Bags of fun with each class, as the atmosphere is always vibrant & folks are very warm/welcoming

I’m really happy I chose Floridita Dance Manchester! I used to travel 30 minutes each way every week, and it was definitely worth it. I learned so much from Jerry, especially the basics, which gave me the confidence to dance with people from all over the world. He’s a great teacher who always gives useful advice and helps you improve. Thanks to what I learned at Floridita, I’ve been able to take part in dance competitions outside the UK. I’m also happy to see how much I’ve improved and how much people enjoy dancing with me. Unfortunately, I’ve had to stop attending for personal reasons, but I’m truly grateful to Jerry and Floridita for everything I’ve learned. I highly recommend this school to anyone who wants to improve their bachata and salsa ! ❤️💃

I found dancing to keep fit and socialise. Best thing I have ever done it is so much fun. Floridita provide great teachers in Faye & Django for bachata and salsa on 1. Easy to understand and they are patient. I am now confident to dance at the socials with only a few weeks of classes I highly recommend dancing and the Floridita family 👌
