An explosion of Latin and world cultures coming together in a celebration of music and dance. West African rhythms calling forth the gods, the infectious sounds of Carnival from Cuba, Spanish troubadours with their dazzling Flamenco guitars, American jazz merging in a fiery tempo. All these diverse cultures weave a tapestry of spirited passion for you to experience at the 6th Annual Seattle Salsa Congress. Brace yourself for something extraordinary. This November Salsa sets off a heat wave in the Northwest.

3 Day Beginners Bootcamp

For absolute beginners to advanced beginners, this is your opportunity to learn from Leslie Ferreira, one of the most admired instructor in the world. She makes dancing a fun and life enriching experience. And if you've already taken some beginning classes, you'll be amazed at how much more there is to learn by gaining a deeper understanding of the fundamentals. Leslie will take what you've already learned to a whole new level. After dinner, everyone comes together for one big celebration that includes performances, live music, and social dancing.
