Hello everyone, hope you have all had a great summer break!
Because now it is time for us at benwermarna to start back upp again, and we are once again starting back upp from the basics!
So if you are new to dancing or if you know someone who is thinking about trying it out, then this is the perfect time for you all to come dance with us!😄
We are temporarily going to host our events at Göteborgs Nation, who where super kind to let us use their premises, while Värmlands finishes up their renovations. 😊👍

Benwermarna offer COMPLETELY FREE classes and social dances in both Bachata and Salsa.
Our goal is to take you from a stumbling potato to a latin dance star! 😃
- COMPLETELY free!
- No prior dance experience needed.
- No dance partner in advance required, we will pair up there.
- No nation card required, anyone can join student or not.
The classes start for complete beginners and we will progress the level throughout the semester accordingly.
Schedule:
13:00 - 14:00: Salsa Cubana class by Ricardo and Katerina.
14:00 - 14.15: Break with some Salsa music. You've just learned a new dance, take a break, or try using what you just learned to music!
14:15 - 15:15: Bachata Moderna class by Stefan and Izzy
15:15 - 15:30: Break with Bachata music. You've just learned a new dance, take a break, or try using what you just learned to music!
15:30 - 17:30: Social dancing where we will play a mix of Salsa and Bachata.
Dance descriptions:
Cuban salsa is characterized by its high energy, its circular movements and joyful spirit. It's danced all across the world, and it is particularly popular in Uppsala and Stockholm, with dance events occurring almost daily. Ricardo and Katerina will transform you into a salsa superstar.
Bachata Moderna is the perfect dance for beginners to start with. Sharing with salsa the throne as kings of Latin dances danced at every event worldwide, it's dramatic, mellow and musical and the perfect compliment and contrast to the more up-beat salsa. Bachata is easy to learn but hard to master and Stefan and Izzy will make it their personal mission that you are able to dance a full bachata song with just ONE lesson under your wing!
