Always wanted to learn to Salsa? Think you could never learn Bachata? Wrong!! Dance classes at Salsa Knox will have you Dancing like a star. Waldo and his wife Jackie are both so passionate about teaching that you will soon be dancing like a pro. My daughter and I attended a ladies only class then my daughter continued on to take several more classes. We both enjoyed the safe environment and the energy is high! Once you see them dance together you will know why they are such amazing teachers!

My wife and I opted for Latin dancing for a night out. We decided on a dance sponsored by the SalsaKnox Dance Company. Once held at Cocoa Moon Restaurant, Waldo and Jackie now host this event every Saturday at 7:30pm, Holiday Inn (Cedar Bluff). There was a variety of dances including Merengue, Salsa, Mambo, and Bachata. At 7:30pm, a free Salsa dancing is given with a lot of great dance tips. I would suggest getting there early. There were over 40 people at the free dance lesson. No partner is necessary because partners are rotated during the dance lesson. After the class, there is a dance party where you can practice your new steps. We have been this event before. Personally, I love the new location because parking is convenient and access to the hotel is easy (from Interstate I-40). Wando played some high energy Latin music. The dance floor was packed. Several single men were dancing with single women who didn't have partners. Thus, you don't need a partner to enjoy yourself there! The Salsa dance awareness is growing; the dance crowds continue to get larger at these venues. One note would be to check the website (www.salsaknox.com) if you haven’t been there before or in a long while so that you can be fully aware of any changes (i.e. time, location). I would highly recommend experiencing Salsa dancing there.
