Nightlife in Barcelona
The Salsa scene in Barcelona offers something for everyone:
Cuban Salsa, LA Salsa, Cuban Wheel, live music, dance displays and
a Salsa community from all over the world! The Salsa scene in
Barcelona is increasingly active and happening with many clubs and
bars. We will visit different Salsa venues to ensure you enjoy a
wide variety of Salsa ‘ambiente’. There are a lot of Salsa dancers
in Barcelona and thus many potential dance partners for you! In
addition, we offer Dance Holidays taxi dancers as optional extras.
They are local to Barcelona and may speak a little English. Please
see the 'Optional Extras' section below for details. Admission into
the salsa clubs accompanied by Dance Holidays is free, however if
you opt to go alone there may be a fee.
Taxi dancers:
We want to give you as much opportunity to improve your new found
dancing skills as possible. So we offer you the option of hiring
taxi dancers (local female or male Salsa dancer) who are there to
dance with you when we go out at night. It's also a great way of
getting to know the locals. Each taxi dancer is shared between a
maximum of four people (minimum of three) for two hours each night.
(£10 per person per night).
Classes and workshops:
Your Salsa course will be four hours long: Two hours a day over
two days.
Dance Levels: There is a level decider on the first day which
ensures that you are in the level which is most appropriate to your
ability and experience.
Dance Studios: We commonly use centrally located Dance Studios
just off Las Ramblas, which afford mirrors and a good music
system.
