Tumbao Salsa School

To experience the best of Cuban Salsa. Our Salsa classes in Glasgow are designed to cater to all levels, from beginners to advanced dancers. Led by our world championship-winning team of instructors, you will be guided through the essentials of Cuban Salsa in a friendly and nurturing environment.

At Tumbao Salsa School, we pride ourselves on creating a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere, where everyone can feel part of our amazing Cuban salsa family. Maestra Farah Portela introduced authentic Cuban Salsa to Glasgow 21 years ago, and since then, Glasgow has become the best place in the UK to learn and dance Cuban salsa.

In addition to our Salsa classes, we also offer a range of incredible Salsa and Latin clubs in the fabulous Boteco and Mango venues in Glasgow. Our Wednesday Salsa club in Boteco is a quintessential Salsa experience, with modern Cuban and worldwide Salsa music, blended with Bachata, Reggaeton, and even the occasional Kizomba. Whether you're a beginner or an advanced dancer, there's always a great dance waiting for you at Boteco.

On Saturdays, our club in Mango provides a more generic Latin night, featuring a mix of Reggaeton, Bachata, and other Latin party music. We also play Salsa, and the more Salseros there are, the more Salsa will be played. Don't hesitate to ask the DJ for your favourite music, as we're always happy to accommodate your requests.

To end the weekend on a high note, join us on Sundays for our hugely successful Sunday Social Salsa and Kizomba club in Mango. Starting at 6 pm, we kick off the evening with a mix of modern Cuban salsa and choice pieces from all over Latin America and the US. There's a little something for everyone, including Bachata and the occasional Reggaeton.

Our Salsa clubs are held at Boteco, located at 62 Trongate, Glasgow G1 5EP, and Mango, situated at 373 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow G2 3HU. Entry to our clubs is free, and the atmosphere is always lively and vibrant.

In addition to our classes and clubs, we also film and produce music videos for the world's most successful Salsa bands, such as the incredible Los Van Van. You can enjoy a selection of these videos on our website, created by our very own Maestro Alejandro Valera and Duncan Kane.
