Arun is a fantastic dancer and a warm-hearted person who makes you feel at home! I always enjoy dancing at Salsa Madras.

Salsa Madras not only offers incredible dance courses, but also a community of motivated, passionate dancers who are improving at all levels, and which feels like a (dance) family. I absolutely recommend buying the season pass to attend multiple classes per week - transfer your new skills from one dance style to another. Arun, the teacher, provides step by step instruction to consistently improve. His explanations are applicable on the dance floor and in life. „Make dancing a conversation“ and join Salsa Madras to find community.

Tanzen mit Arun von Salsa Madras bedeutet Spaß, Professionalität, Leidenschaft und ganz viel Herz verbunden mit einer freundschaftliche Atmosphäre. 💃♥️ Man kann auch alleine kommen - bei den Kursen und Workshops wird immer durch gewechselt und Arun tanzt mit allen Ladys. Es gibt zwei mal die Woche Sozials nach den Kursen, damit man gleich üben kann, was gelernt wurde. Also kommt zum Salsa, Bachata und Kizomba lernen, vor allem ihr Jungs, wir brauchen immer Leader. 😜

Excellent dance school and instructor(s). The community is very welcoming and students mingle during and outside of class. Classes are structured well and accommodate everyone’s indivisible levels while making sure the love for dancing and fun is in focus. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a dance family and to improve their dance skills. Will come back whenever I’m in town ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
