With Homero Gonzalez
Godfather of Cuban Salsa
teaching: ***Advanced (traditional) Cha cha cha***


Homero Gonzalez is one of the pioneers of the salsa in UK, and arguably largely responsible for popularising Cuban music and dance in the UK in the past decade or so.
From his influence has sprung many a new salsa 'star' and competition winner and is respected throughout London, UK and worldwide.
Homero is a very charismatic man with a strict yet highly humourous teaching technique.


We look forward to having the godfather in the building.

Profundo! is a bi-monthly ADVANCE class, every 2nd and 4th Tuesday of the month
