Yesterday my and my BF came here for our first salsa lesson! The place is beautiful,well maintained and a lot of space to dance and practice. Teacher Gaby was amazing,fun and definitely knows so much about the dance!! We had an hour class that went by so fast and we got to meet such a nice group of people and teachers definitely we will come back and take more lessons!
High-quality instructions and low pressure, judgement-free and friendly learning environment! Out of all the salsa schools in NYC, Cucala really stands out with their ego-free (yes it exists in the NY Salsa scene lol) community driven, authentic and friendly environment. The instructors are high-level dancers who put a lot of effort and care in their art, creativity and their teachings. They’re patient, down to earth and just very chill to be around. They pay a lot to the learning process of their students. I have learned so much from taking class with them in the last 9 months. It always feels so good be there… folks are super genuine. The atmosphere is fun and chill. Come and have a good time!!
This has become my home away from home. All the instructors are super nice, welcoming and patient. I go every week and keep coming back for more!
I just took my first class with Cucala today. Everyone was super welcoming and encouraging. I like that we each had the opportunity to dance with several of the instructors. I received personal feedback which I really appreciated and can be rare in big group classes. I also loved that there was an instructor explaining all of the follower's technique. So often I've been in classes where only the leads were actually taught directly. The instructors also ask often if there are questions and are happy to go over steps. Overall, a great experience that I recommend! Thank you Cucala!
I have been taking classes with Andre and Gabby for a while and always have a good time in classes learning technique and being challenged. Instructors here really feed off your energy and push you to improve. Looking back at when I first started, I appreciate how much it offered me as a student to help me grow. All instructors have an extensive background in the dance and give students a solid foundation. I highly recommend everyone to take classes with Cucala Dance Company to learn the right technique.
