We make sure to start each class by showing you the 3 patterns to be taught so that you can place yourself in the most appropriate level.  Each level features both male and female instructors and is designed to make you a better social leader and follower.

NY Salsa 101 for Beginners

Tuesdays, 7:00p - 8:30p

Tuesday's class is considered by many as the best beginner salsa class in New York City because of the warm and friendly learning environment created by our instructors. No partner required.  Drop-in whenever (no cycle).

  • Level 1: Absolute beginners
  • Level 2: Beginners
The first part of each class uses salsa shines (footwork steps) to teach students proper timing and body movement.  The second part of class focuses on the partnerwork technique that serves as the strong foundation needed to progress to more advanced levels.

Salsa Shines and Styling

Fridays, 7:00p - 8:30p: All Levels

It's one thing to know the steps.  It's another to make them look good.  Join us every Friday and learn how you can add flare to your salsa footwork and work to develop your own style on the dance floor. This class is offered for both men and women. Drop-in any time (no cycle).

  • Ladies don't miss your chance to train directly with one of the world's most famous and talented Salseras, Ahtoy WonPat-Borja.

Saturday's salsa class is usually split up into 3 levels:

Student Testimonials

"I have been a BASo student for two years now and highly recommend them to anyone at any level. It's rare to find a group of dancers who are both excellent at performing and teaching. What sets them apart from most schools is their organized method of instruction and the vast number of qualified instructors they develop." - Russ N.
