Frequently Asked Questions
Absolutely! Our socials are open to all levels, and beginners are more than welcome. Theyâre a great way to practice what youâve learned in class, meet new people, and enjoy the music in a supportive environment. Many of our students attend their first social within weeks of starting, and our community is known for being welcoming and inclusive.
Not at all! đđș All of our group dance classes and events in Los Angelesâincluding salsa classes, bachata classes, kizomba, and tango lessonsâare designed to be inclusive, social, and beginner-friendly. We rotate partners so everyone has the opportunity to practice with different people, which helps you learn faster and build confidence in your lead or follow skills.
If youâre attending with a partner and prefer not to rotate, thatâs totally fineâjust let the instructor know before class starts, and weâll make sure you stay together. â€ïž
Whether youâre coming solo, with a friend, or attending one of our salsa and bachata socials in Los Angeles, youâll be welcomed into the community right away.
No Refund Policy: All event and special workshops registrations are non-refundable.
Events include socials, parties, and other one-time community gatherings hosted by Dancer University.
Special workshops refer to unique, limited-time learning opportunities such as guest instructor intensives, masterclasses, weekend bootcamps, or one-off training programs that fall outside of our regular monthly courses. Registrations for special workshops are non-refundable but may be transferred to another person as long as the same role (lead or follow) is maintained.
We carefully curate the music in both our classes and socials to match the energy, style, and skill level of each dance. đ¶ Whether youâre in a beginner lesson or an advanced social room, youâll always hear music thatâs leadable, inspiring, and fun to dance to.
Hereâs what to expect:
đ·Â Salsa Room
A blend of salsa romåntica, mambo, pop salsa, and timba. These tracks are smooth, energetic, and perfect for partner connection.
đ§Â Bachata Room
We focus on modern bachata musicâclean, contemporary tracks with strong romantic or rhythmic elements. We intentionally avoid most remixes to keep the vibe authentic and leadable for social dancing.
đ Kizomba & Tango
We occasionally feature pop-up sets or dedicated mini-rooms for these styles, depending on the night and the theme.
All of our DJs are selected for their ability to elevate the social dance experience. We donât play performance-only musicâevery track is chosen to help you feel the rhythm, connect with your partner, and move confidently on the floor. đâ€ïž
