Salsa & Mambo Workshops in Mumbai and Thane
Join my workshops to master Salsa On2 and Mambo. Whether you want to sharpen your footwork or learn the art of smooth partner connection, let us find that groove together.
Here’s a look at one of my Mambo footwork sessions. We break down the steps and rhythms so everyone can catch the groove. My classes are all about building your confidence on the dance floor, one shine at a time.
This is a sneak peek into our team rehearsals, where we drill partnerwork combinations. We focus on clear leading and following techniques to make every move feel smooth and connected. It’s all about practice, fun, and teamwork.
Understanding the music is key. In my musicality workshops, we learn to identify the different instruments in a Salsa track like the Clave, Cowbell, and Guiro. This helps you move beyond just counting steps and start really dancing with the music.
This was a super fun drill to practice soft and light partnerwork connection. The goal is to lead and follow without dropping the paper, which teaches you to be gentle and precise. It’s a great way to improve your technique while having a laugh.
About this collection
My workshops are about more than just counting steps. We focus on 'soft connection' techniques, like learning to lead without tension, which transforms how you feel on the dance floor. Whether you are preparing for a social night or just want to get your Mambo footwork right, I focus on the rhythm first so you can relax and really dance with your partner.
The Mambo & Salsa Foundation
I believe that music and dancing are inseparable. In my classes, we don't just drill movements, we break down the music. You will learn to identify the Clave, Cowbell, and Guiro, helping you move with the instruments rather than just counting beats. This musicality training is a cornerstone of my sessions, ensuring you feel confident in any social setting.
Partnerwork & Connection
My partnerwork drills focus on smooth, tension-free communication between leaders and followers. I often use creative exercises, like the 'toilet paper challenge,' to help students understand how to keep their movements gentle and precise. We work on slot maintenance, spin preps, and proper posture so that your connection feels light and intuitive.
What to Expect

- Weekly Sessions: Ideal for consistency, these Sunday classes at RDX Studio in Thane West focus on progressive learning.
- Drop-in Access: Busy schedule? You can join single sessions to get a taste of the training without a long-term commitment.

I keep the atmosphere fun and supportive, with plenty of direct feedback during rotations. My goal is to make sure you walk out of the studio with more confidence, a better connection, and a deeper love for the music.
