Movers and Shakers Salsa and Bachata Dance Academy

Joining a salsa performance team has always been on my bucket list, but finding one in Los Angeles that's beginner-friendly felt so intimidating, especially walking in not knowing anyone. From the very first audition to the weekly rehearsals, I was quickly welcomed into a community that is warm, supportive, and incredibly uplifting.

Such an unforgettable dance experience! I joined Movers and Shakers 10 week salsa program and this truly been the best part of my week. Ariela, Azero, Kyle and Danny are amazing instructors to bring some excitement for the class and always coming with a smile. They are very helpful as I've been able to use what I've learned when salsa music plays which is amazing. So happy with what I've accomplished and a lot of great people in the class too.

We look forward to this every week! My husband and I drive from West LA for our SELSA 101 class(10 minute drive), and it's 100% worth it every single time!

We've learned so much and honestly can't wait to start 102! If you're thinking about joining-just do it, you'll love it!

One of my favorite parts of the week was my 10-week salsa 101 program at Movers and Shakers. I genuinely looked forward to every Tuesday evening. Even driving all the way from East LA was worth it, the energy and excitement of the class made it something I never wanted to miss. The entire MaS team is incredible. Danny, Ariela, Inna, and Kyle are all amazing instructors, and Danny's high energy, welcoming personality, and accommodating approach make the studio especially beginner-friendly. As so
