I would definitely recommend Omar&Johanna=) They are very good teachers with who you can not only learn some nice figures/movements but also get a lot of information about technique part of dancing. You can be sure that you will learn how to dance, develop your dancing skills and enjoy the dance. Their lessons are always interesting and bring a good energy =)

ABOUT OUR BOOTCAMPS
Bootcamps are an easy way to try and learn the foundations of these dances in 1 or 2 days!
During the bootcamps everyone changes partners to improve our learning experience and so we all improve together.
What you will learn:
👉 rhythm and basic step
👉 basic patterns that will help you dance well at parties
👉 leading and following techniques
👉 dance position and step technique
👉 And of course, we will throw ourselves into the music and learn the first methods of musical interpretation! 😎
🔥 After the bootcamp anyone interested in continuing learning with us can join our Autumn Progressive Beginner Courses on Thursdays at the best rate!

ABOUT US
They make the best followers and leaders in the city! Creating warm and welcoming atmosphere same time. They are good at observing what could help students in the moment and they are as well as teachers than dancers.
Johanna and Omar are incredible teachers. If you are looking to grow as a social dancer in Finland/Helsinki, look no further! They are the best!
Super talented and nice Salsa & Bachata teachers. Highly recommended if you want to take your social dancing to the next level, and have a lot of fun while at it!
Wonderful atmosphere and great teaching methods to help understand key concepts and not just technique on more superficial level. The place is also very nice!

FAQ
Can I learn both Salsa & Bachata at the same time?
Definitely! We actually recommend starting both at the same time! Learning both Salsa & Bachata will ensure you become an all-round dancers from the get go and you can dance at the Latin parties non-stop. We dance multiple dances ourselves and can help you develop fast in becoming an all round social dancer. Obviously it all depends on ones calendar and personal interest.
What clothing should I wear?
Wear something comfortable!
Some people come straight from work and wear their work clothing, others come with other comfortable clothing.
What shoes should I wear?
No outdoor shoes are permitted on the dance floor.
Please take indoor shoes with non-marking soles. Optionally you can just dance in socks but this might be slippery.
At some point. once you have decided to continue dancing more, you might want to consider buying shoes specifically for social dancing.
Can I only dance with my partner?
During all group classes at Avec everyone changes partner to improve the learning process.
If you are interested in learning only with your partner we would recommend you to contact us for Private Lessons.
How long does it take before I can go to Salsa and Bachata parties?
You actually don’t need to go to classes to go to Salsa & Bachata parties! Like any other pub/bar you can just go and meet people in a lively environment.
We recommend students to go to as many parties as possible as soon as possible! This will greatly help develop your dancing faster and get inspired! If you want to check out events that we organise through I Dance Helsinki check out this link
We’ll teach you enough foundations in the first bootcamp to get you started. In the Progressive course during the first 3-4 classes you will already have a foundation to dance comfortably at a party.
But like with anything, it takes time to develop new skills.
Can I get a private lesson first?
If you are not sure yet or want to get a head-start you can book a private lesson with us.
Our private lessons for 1 or 2 persons are:
1 hour – 120€
1.5 hours – 150€
