I Could Have Danced All Night ~ A J Lerner

After a relaxing 60 minute punt tour of the College Backs it's time to get your dancing shoes on! We have teamed up with Cambridge’s finest salsa club to offer you a 60 minute private dance class, with your instructor taking you through the basic steps.

The salsa class takes place in the Hidden Rooms, one of Cambridge's newest venues, which is conveniently located in the centre of Cambridge, only a short walk from our punt stations. For groups that would like to relax with a well-earned drink after their class there is a bar available.

This package must be pre-booked and can be tailored to your specific requirements (e.g. some groups prefer to take the salsa class before the punt tours and some prefer to spread the two activities over consecutive days). For further information on advance sales click here.

History of Salsa

Salsa has its roots in Cuban music. Musically, Salsa is a group of Latin rhythmic styles that contain the Clave beat, the five note syncopated rhythmic cell of African origin. Salsa music is a synthesis of European and African musical influences, the European connection being mainly the melodies and harmony of the Andalucian region of Spain.
