I came for a dance tryout, but I stayed for the dance lifestyle (and a great amount of new friends to boot). This dance school teaches cuban salsa in a way that even those with stiff legs and hips like me get the hang of it and pick up on the fun very quickly. A fun and energetic vibe that feels like a slice of summer in rainy Amsterdam

Talking from a very personal perspective, I believe it [Open Class] made a big difference along my journey because it gave me the environment I needed for practising. If you want to settle what you learned in class, having a concept like this is key.

Socials, even though you learn a lot, are different - everything goes fast and you just go for the fun. However, I always used open classes for working on technique and get a transition from "the theory learned in class" towards "the practise". It is not the same learning a new move isolated than in an improvised dance sequence, you need to work on "greasing" the whole thing to make it look smooth. And many times, the key relies on a small detail that only a teacher's eye can catch, and this  makes a huge difference... it is like somewhat which helps you to unlock a figure completely.
