Starting my life over at 50, salsa gave me
something to look forward to every week,
and real confidence

You are at a wedding. A Latin club. A party.
The music starts. Everyone moves to the floor. You stay at the table.
Not because you do not want to dance, but because nobody ever taught you how. The right way.
You tried YouTube. You got confused and quit. You thought about classes, but the idea of looking foolish in front of strangers stopped you.
So you watch. And wish. And tell yourself, “Maybe someday.” Someday has been the plan for years.
Here is the truth:
It is not about talent. It is not about rhythm. It is not about age.
It is about learning the right steps, in the right order, from someone who started exactly where you are.
This is not a collection of random YouTube videos.
Each step builds on the one before it. The basic step before the right turn. The right turn before the cross-body lead. You never skip ahead, and you never get lost.
You always know exactly what to do next.
Practice in your living room, on your own schedule.
Start alone. Dance with anyone.

Every lesson shows where your feet go on each count, how your weight moves, and why the step works the way it does. Even if you believe you have no rhythm.

You learn both sides: how a leader signals a turn, and how a follower answers it. That shared language is what lets two strangers dance together.

Small, natural changes in timing, movement, and energy that make the basic steps feel like yours.

I came to the United States not knowing how to dance. The way people danced here was completely different from what I knew. So I started from zero: the basic step, then the right turn, then the cross-body lead. The same place you are starting now.
I learned salsa at Arthur Murray Dance Studio, where I was later recruited to teach. Over time, the order I learned in became my own method: 20 essential steps, each one building on the last, with leading and following taught from the very first step.
Over 31 years of teaching, I have helped hundreds of adults, most of them starting exactly where you are, reach the point where they walk onto a dance floor with confidence.
In the lessons, I dance with my partner Roxana, so you see every step from both the lead and the follow.
I know what it feels like to not know how. That is exactly why I can teach you.
"Ricardo and Roxana teach you the small things that make you confident and elegant. They helped me create my own style in a short period of time" - Isaac S.
The Learn to Dance Salsa program opens a few times a year. Everyone in the group starts on the same day and follows the 20 essential steps in the same order, week by week.. When enrollment closes, it stays closed until the next group.
Because whenever usually becomes never.
You buy a course, you watch two lessons, and life gets in the way.
Most of us have done it with something.
A start date gives you a reason to begin. Sixteen weeks gives you a finish line.
The 20 steps give you the order, so you always know what comes next.
One payment. The next group starts on December 1, 2026.

The program comes with a 7-day money-back guarantee that starts on December 1, the day lessons open. Go through the first week, and if the program is not right for you, email refundplease@yourdancestudio.com by December 8 and you get a full refund. No hoops. No hard feelings.
Yes. I started from zero myself, with no natural talent and no experience. Over 31 years, I have taught hundreds of adult beginners of all ages and body types. The steps are taught in an order that builds coordination gradually, so you are never asked to do something your body is not ready for.
You have full access to the program for 16 weeks, from December 1 to March 23, 2027. After that, you can keep practicing and add new variations to the 20 steps with the Under 2 Minutes membership.
You can replay any lesson as often as you need during the 16 weeks, so you can slow down and repeat a step before moving on. After March 23, the Under 2 Minutes membership lets you keep practicing: it shows all 20 essential steps danced on the count, plus new variations that build on them.
YouTube gives you random clips with no structure and no progression. You watch one video, then another, and end up more confused than when you started.
This course is a complete system; every lesson builds on the last, in the right order, so nothing falls through the cracks.
Most online salsa courses give you a library of videos and say “go at your own pace.” That sounds great, until you realize you stopped watching after week 2.
This program gives you three things a library does not: a start date, a 16-week finish line, and the 20 essential steps in a fixed order. You always know what to do this week, and you know when you will be done.
The next group starts December 1, 2026. Enrollment is open from October 12 to November 30, 2026. When you enroll, you receive a confirmation email right away, and your course access begins on December 1. If enrollment is closed when you read this, join the waitlist and you will hear first when the next group opens in March 2027.
The music is playing. The floor is calling. This is where it changes.
One price. Enrollment closes November 30.
