Salsa & Bachata Classes in Ottawa
15+ years building one of Ottawa’s largest Latin dance communities
Discover the Power of Salsa & Bachata
JoseSanDance is a Salsa and Bachata dance school and community located at 105 Murray St in the heart of Ottawa. We offer structured Salsa and Bachata classes for all levels, from complete beginners taking their first steps to advanced dancers looking to refine their technique, musicality, and personal style.
Our group classes go beyond simply learning steps. Through a progressive, hands-on teaching approach, we focus on timing, rhythm, body movement, and partner connection, helping students build confidence and truly understand the music. We create a welcoming, energetic environment where dancers can develop their skills, meet new people, and feel part of Ottawa's Latin dance community.
Founded by Jose Sandoval, JoseSanDance brings together experienced instructors and passionate dancers through weekly group classes, private lessons, specialized workshops, and Latin dance social events.
