About us
Bromley Salsa has been going since 2002, offering Salsa Dance Lessons and regular Parties. In 2017 Salsateca and Ola Latina introduced Bachata and a new concept with a fresh latin touch, professional Instructors and Djs.
We think we're a friendly bunch, and our ethos is: we take our teaching seriously but believe it shouldn't be taught seriously, it has be fun and accessible. Everyone was a beginner once.
For us, it really is all about doing everything for our students and dancers rather than how successful we are, which is possibly why it's one of the busiest and longest running regular Salsa & Bachata venues in the UK.
