This sounds interesting. My wife always wanted to attend Salsa classes. Unfortunately she's not here with me.

Do you have an idea how long the classes run before you're near proficient. I know it will depend on the individual as well. But a very rough estimate would be fine.

Maybe someone has the teacher's contact no. so I can ask her directly.

Thks.

I go to Salsa classes at the Ramada on a monday night 8 til 9 for 50 QAR per person.  The teacher is great, I used to work with her and she is a world class dancer.  Get yourself along.  Its in the old Ramada at the Cobana Club.  See you there :)
