Keijo
"My earlier music listening had been more flat, and now it's possible to find the finer structures - from cuerpo to bomba. Great!"
Arto
"It was so eye-opening to be able to hear the new and the old from songs, to hear the whole history of salsa [in a song]! -- The knowledge of both theory and practice is clearly visible on these lectures, as is the most important: The lecturers own passion!"
Lahja
"I learned a lot of new terms, and now the forever-lasting Cuban songs are much clearer! And again, one of the best things was the concentration on the feeling and characteristics of the song instead of counting!"
Matias Löyttyniemi
As a dance teacher, I have toured all over Finland for the last 16 years, bringing the joy of Cuban salsa to every corner of the country!
For me, the most important parts of dancing are partner connection and musicality, and I always take the classes from technique to improvised dancing and enjoying the movement with your partner!
I have a Master's degree in Musicology from the University of Helsinki, where I specialized in Cuban popular dance music.

FAQs
Are these courses for casino (cuban salsa), salsa on2, cali salsa or mambo dancers?
For everybody! My background is in Cuban dances and music, but the origins, basic musical pillars and the foundations of musicality can be applied to any kind of salsa!
Is this course suitable for me? I have danced for [X] years, is there too much/little information?
I would recommend this course for anyone who is interested in salsa or Cuban music in general, regardless of their dance history! You can check out the course topics before purchasing and see what it's all about, but in general the course has so many topics and deep dives, that there's bound to be new stuff even for the more experienced salsero!
In general, I have always aimed for the perfect balance between easy-to-understand and entertaining presentation, academic ideas, and the actual needs of dancers with different backgrounds!

How long can I attend the courses I buy?
For the foreseeable future, meaning some years. I could say "lifetime access", but I think we all know that when a company says that, they mean the life of the product and not the buyer! ;)
How can I access the course after purchasing it?
You can login from the top-right portion of this page! You will then see it on your student dashboard and can study it at your own pace.
Are these some actual questions that you have been asked, like, frequently?
Not really.. You got me there! :) FAQ is just a way of giving you some more information in a little different form! *Mind blown*
