How can I learn to Dance Salsa at home?

Question

Or Ballroom dances for that matter?

Answer 1

If you have to do it at home, get this DVD set ( http://www.reviewk.com/learntodance/ ) - not very expensive (I think $99) - and it teaches you 8 different types of dances including Salsa, Jive, Foxtrot, Jive, Waltz, rhumba, samba, tango... I have used it in past and have liked it much.

Answer 2

There are lots of DVDs available and clips you can watch on the internet, but from someone who's tried to learn ballroom/latin by these methods, I gotta tell you, it's difficult! I gave up and booked myself in classes in the end.

If you possibly can, you should try and attend a few classes.

What is worth investing in, however, is some good salsa music and some good strict-tempo ballroom and latin CDs. Hearing the music will give you a start in itself!
