Hi all,

I have recently moved to Zurich and I´m now looking to revive my old hobby of dacing salsa.

Having sample thru couple of the larger establishments in Zurich I am less than impressed about the quality of the teaching.

I would be extremely delighted, if it would be possible to advise any teachers who fit at least some of the criteria:

I would prefer that the teacher would have:
-Formal training (ISA/ENA/ex-Conjunto Folklorico Nacional de Cuba/ex-Ragatan/ex-Yoruba andabo)
-Teaches cuban style casino
-Starts with the pause (Callejero style)
-Plays Timba straight away from the first class
-Has reputation of building up good dancers in long term
-Has beginners class at least twice a year.

I know that this criteria is pretty extreme, but any insights of persons meeting even one of these criteria are appreciated.

Welcome to the forum.

This one's a friend of mine...not sure if she teaches the style you want, but she's very serious about her Cuban heritage...
