About
Hello friends and future salsa dancers, my name is Nelson I go by Nelly and my biggest passion is dancing and teaching salsa. My speciality in dancing is Cali Style salsa, I focus a lot on footworks, partner work, posture and most of all how to enjoy dancing with a partner or solo.
I've been teaching salsa in the Bay Area for about 5 months now and my experience with students is twofold. Some just want to try it out, and others are committed on improving their Colombia salsa steps. Which one are you? Either way I'm always happy to meet new students and bring out their passions through dance.
