    A Gem, right in the heart of Downtown Syracuse, NY

    Amidst the popularity of the TV show Dancing With The Stars, I think we all have fantasies of being graceful out on the dance floor. And we know from watching that we too can become at least proficient at it's because we've seen others transform from little to no talent to pretty good dancers. If they can do it, so can most of us!

    In an attempt to get back to my Latin roots, I searched for a school that teaches Salsa and found "La Familia de la Salsa" in the Syracuse City Area. My original intention was to take a few lessons and leave it at that. But, as I took the beginner lessons, I came to realize this was much more than just a quick thing. It became a passion for me as I learned some really fun moves and even applied them in the club settings-as they translate well into Partner dancing.

    I was somewhat shocked to find such an assortment of non-Latinos who could dance circles around me!

    The master instructor, Brian exudes charisma and raw talent. His genuine passion for his art is self evident. He is highly personable, patience, understanding, and has a Zen-like temperament.

    There is taught a Cuban Style called "Rueda de Casino" which is a wheel of fortune reminiscent of the kind of line dance done in the electric slide only much more detailed and gratifying to those who participate as well as the spectators-only of course, it's done in a circle, and the routines are called out by a leader or announcer. It's a site to behold!

    We are encouraged to display our talents in the Latin Clubs throughout the area. Salsa is great exercise and loads of fun. The other students there are also fantastic, and we really are like a Family.

    If you're looking to learn Salsa or even get a good workout, I highly recommend that you check out this school. You won't be disappointed. Become part of a great Family...

    They even have a WEB Site: http://lafamiliadelasalsa.com/
