Great salsa lesson experience for young and old! - My group of 15 family members, ages 20-86, had a fantastic time with our instructors and the staff at Crazy Rumba’s Salsa and Champeta workshop. We learned three Latin dance styles and had a blast with lots of laughs. The studio is easy to find in Getsemani, a short walk from our vacation rental. Highly recommend!!

Must do! Best dancing class ever! - My friends and I had an awesome time dancing to bachata, champeta, and salsa. Natalia is an excellent dance instructor, spoke English really well, broke the steps in small segments, making the learning experience easy and fun! If you are coming to Cartagena you must sign up for a class!

It is a Salsa Dance... - It is a Salsa Dance School. We had a very nice and engaged teacher. But we thought we would have a group course. Actually we had a single course.

Thanks for wasting our time - Don’t book this experience the day of. They will not care to look at the request, even though they offer a time slot. Then you will waste your time going to the location and even more time waiting for someone to show up, while they won’t answer the phone and aviator won’t be able to reach them either and you will be scrambling to save your evening.
