What should I wear for salsa or bachata?
Choose clothes that let you move and shoes that stay securely on your feet. You do not need to buy dance shoes for your first lesson. Avoid footwear that makes turning uncomfortable, and bring a light layer for the trip home.
Can I try both salsa and bachata in one night?
The regular schedule places beginning bachata before beginning salsa, so you can plan to try both. Salsa and bachata continue in two rooms during the social. Check the date-specific ticket listing for lesson access.
Is there parking, and can I use public transit?
Check parking signs and restrictions around Barneveld Avenue; spaces are not guaranteed. For transit, plan the complete journey to 550 Barneveld Ave and check the last return service. Dancing finishes at 1:30 AM, so arrange a late-night backup before leaving home.
