Salsa Bachata Mambo Ladies Latin classes | Singapore's Leading Street Latin Dance School

Salsa and Bachata are Street Latin social dances where you and a partner dance in a spontaneous manner. It’s a great way for busy adults like yourself to make new friends, work out your entire body, and discover sides of yourself you never knew existed! 

At En Motion Dance School, our classes are structured for adults of all ages with no dance experience (9 out of ten students come in with absolutely no background!).

But with guidance from our instructions, we’re confident you’ll quickly pick up the basics of the dance, creating beautiful dances with your partners you never thought were possible!

Salsa is more energetic, playful and flirtatious. Partners dance further apart with lots of quick turns and footwork danced to faster tempo music.

Bachata is slower, sexier, and more sensual, generally danced hip-to-hip with more upper body movement.

Why You Should Learn Salsa/Bachata!

It’s an exercise that doesn’t feel like exercise! 

Burn up to 400 calories an hour as you have a blast grooving to upbeat Latin music. Salsa & Bachata work your entire body, improving your cardio, building strength, and increasing your flexibility, making it a perfect way to keep fit without having to drag yourself onto the treadmill!

Meet New People from All Walks of Life!

Salsa & Bachata are not just about dancing. At their heart, they’re social activities that aim to bring people together, foster connections, and let our stressed-out selves take a breather from our busy lives. You’ll never have a dull week again!

It’s lots and lots of fun!

Salsa dance embodies fun and joy. The uplifting music, dynamic movements, and lively ambiance are excellent happiness boosters and are a long way of work, allowing you to let loose and release all your stresses. Many of our students share in this brief 45-min session they feel free and unbounded by all their worries.

“…but I don’t know if I can dance 😬.”

As Asians, dancing is not quite part of our culture so many of us feel uncomfortable moving and grooving. But don’t worry! Having taught over 20,000 students by our “no one gets left behind” motto, we know that you’ll pick up the basics in no time. In fact, 9 out of ten students have zero experience at all!

Questions You May Have!

Q: I’m a complete beginner with no dancing talent… will I be able to learn Salsa and Bachata?
A: Most definitely! Our trial classes are for beginners who want to pick up Salsa & Bachata. We know learning dance can be scary. We make it our job to go slow and bring in good vibes so we can laugh at our mistakes while having lots of fun!

Q: Do I need to bring a partner for my class?
A: Absolutely not. While you can bring a friend, you can also attend the class solo as we’ll rotate partners, allowing you to dance with fellow participants and make new friends!

Q: What should I wear to my first class?
A: Come in a comfortable outfit like workout or gym attire that allows you to move freely! Jazz shoes/ dance sneakers/track shoes/ballet flats/heels with back ankle straps work for ladies and for gentlemen, track shoes/normal covered shoes do the job. No flip flops though!

Q: I’ve danced previously. Is there a more advanced class for me?
A: If you have prior Street Latin Dance background (Salsa, Bachata, etc.), our instructors can conduct a brief 3-min assessment to advise you on which class suits your level best. Let us know in the Google Forms!

If you have a dance background in other styles like Latin Ballroom, Jazz, Hip Hop, Ballet, etc. we do recommend you to start from Beginner Level 1. Street Latin Dance is a unique genre, with fundamentals and basics very different from other dance styles. Always good to build a strong foundation in a new dance before moving to a higher level!
