UPDATE September 2021 Hi I'm Trisha, the owner of Strictly Salsa. I've been teaching Salsa dancing for the last eighteen years in York and Wetherby. I also organise lots of different dancing events.

No need to book unless a novice dancer needing a first steps class. Please bring a drink with you as we have no bar facilities atm. Both venues have plenty of free parking and solid wooden quality dance floors. Re: Covid mitigations Instructors are LFT tested before every class night and are fully vaccinated. We encourage you to test yourselves as tests are easy to access from your local chemists. Though not perfect, a test will help give you peace of mind attending a partner class where we all dance with each other. We have a flexible approach at class nights for those happy to partner share and those wanting to stay separate and will accommodate both. Wearing a face covering is voluntary. Most are choosing not to wear one currently. Double exit doors to the outside from the dance floor remain open whatever the weather, please wear warm layers on colder evenings. Sanitiser is available around the room, please use at regular intervals. We have had the privilege to inspire and teach some of the best and most well known Salseros, Salseras in the North. We assess and give personal feedback to all our dancers and move them through the class levels based upon ability. Aiming to give you the confidence and skills to allow you to join in the wider Salsa social scene. We always encourage a friendly supportive atmosphere throughout all class levels and add a good dollop of FUN !! I hope to see you soon, Trisha More Info below.
