1. Do I need a partner to take your classes?

No, you don’t need a partner! Our classes are structured so everyone has a chance to rotate and dance with different partners.

2. What should I wear to the classes?

Comfortable clothing and shoes. If you have dance shoes, that’s great; if not, sneakers will do. Just try to avoid flip-flops or similar footwear for your safety during the class. We want you to feel comfortable and safe while dancing.

Each class typically lasts about 1 hour, providing ample time for instruction, practice, and feedback.

5. Do I need any prior dance experience?

No experience is needed to start! Our Beginner classes on Mondays are open to everyone, even if it’s your very first time dancing.
For our Wednesday and Thursday classes, we recommend having some basic Salsa or Bachata knowledge before joining, as these sessions move at a faster pace.

6. What types of classes are available? 

We offer both group classes and private lessons, allowing you to choose the format that best fits your learning style and schedule./ We offer both group and private classes. Group classes are great for learning in a social environment, while private lessons provide personalized attention.

7. How often should I attend classes?

We recommend attending at least once a week to see consistent improvement and to stay engaged with the dance community.

8. Can I switch my classes to a different package after I’ve made the payment?

Yes, you can switch your classes to a different package (e.g., from consecutive to flexible, vice versa, or even to private classes). A $15 administrative fee applies for making this change, in addition to any price difference between the two packages.

9. Do you do choreography?

Yes, we do! We create choreography for weddings, competitions, birthdays, and other special events.

10. What styles of salsa/dance are taught at Josesandance?

At Josesandance, we primarily focus on Salsa and Bachata, but we also incorporate various Latin dance styles to enhance your overall experience.

11. What’s the difference between Flexible Packages and Consecutive Packages?

  • Flexible Packages give you the freedom to attend classes whenever you’d like within one year from the date you start using your package. There’s no requirement to come every week, if you skip a class, your package is still valid until you’ve used all your classes (within a year).

  • Consecutive Packages run for 5 consecutive weeks, starting from your first class. Even if you miss a week, it still counts toward your 5-week package. This option is best for dancers who want consistent practice and steady progress.

12. Can I get a refund if I can’t attend my classes?

Yes, refunds are available for both private classes and group packages, but a $15 processing fee applies per transaction. Refunds will be issued using the original payment method. Please note that rescheduling a class is considered a cancellation. Exceptional circumstances (illness, family emergencies, or COVID-19 symptoms) may be considered on a case-by-case basis.

13. Where can I buy dance shoes?
