Everyone should make HELENA’S class part their SALSA JOURNEY! I did and YOU SHOULD TOO! I have taken Helena’s 4 week series!! It’s a lot of fun and the styling portion was an extra added unexpected bonus that I absolutely loved😍! She takes the time to dance with each and every one of her studentS to make sure you’ve got the moves down!! She is conveniently located in Rockville, the studio gave me great feeling with plenty of room and the price is RIGHT and worth it! Make sure u sign up early so u can SAVE!! GO FOR IT!! Enjoy the RIDE🔥🔥🔥

Helena has been one of the best teachers if not the best I’ve ever got a chance to learn from. She makes class fun while paying attention to each individual student no matter the size of her class and makes sure we are actually getting the moves. I’ve learned quite a bit from her and would highly recommend anyone to learn with her!! No matter what level you are at I’m sure you will learn something!

I've progressed not only in doing the dance moves, but also in understanding why and how it works solo and partnered.
