Timothy James wanted to pass on some exciting news to the sports community. He's the organiser behind the acclaimed Watusi Dance School in London, a place dedicated to Salsa, Bachata, Cross Body, Cuban, and Ladies Style dancing. The school, now thriving at Flow Dance studios, offers a range of classes and workshops led by seasoned dance teachers with a laid-back, friendly approach.
Timothy has mentioned that the school currently has two main classes: Homero’s session on Mondays from 8pm to 9:30pm, and Madeleine Duba Gonzalez’s class on Thursdays from 7:30pm to 9pm. These classes welcome dancers of all levels, even beginners, with open arms. Whether you bring a dance partner or come solo, Watusi Dance School fosters an inclusive environment for everyone to learn and enjoy dance.
One of the standout classes is the Salsa with AfroCuban Steps and La Rueda de Casino, taught by the talented Homero Gonzalez. This 90-minute session delves into Salsa Cubana across three levels and includes the vibrant Rueda de Casino. Homero, a trailblazer in the UK Salsa scene, was the pioneer to introduce and perform La Rueda de Casino in the country, sparking a widespread love for salsa.
For those wanting to add some grace to their moves, Timothy recommends the Ladies Style class with Madeleine Duba. This 90-minute class helps students refine body movement, posture, balance, footwork, arm styling, and technique through varied Cuban dance steps.
Timothy is also thrilled about the Zumba classes led by Madeleine, which combine the energy of Latin music with fitness. Expect invigorating sessions featuring Salsa, Merengue, Reggaeton, Dembow, and Cumbia – it's a fun way to keep fit.
Other classes on offer include Rumba Cubana with Homero Gonzalez, Reggaeton and Salsa Line Dance, Bachata with Miro Ghazarian, Men’s Style with Homero Gonzalez, and Cross Body with Sam 'Mr. Sleek'. All are taught by experts specialising in their dance style, ensuring top-notch instruction for all skill levels.
