Why so inexpensive? This is your salsa social dollars at work! If you ever wondered where the $10 you pay to enter the YA Salsa social goes, look no further then the YA Salsa Workshops. Almost all of the proceeds from the social are used to bring in exceptional salsa instructors from all over the country, to teach classes at exceptionally low price, to anyone who is interested expanding their salsa dancing horizons. Without the YA volunteers and social proceeds, YA Salsa workshop sessions would need to cost twice as much just to break even. Click here to find out how you make it possible!

Never taken a salsa class?
YA Salsa also offers a FREE* beginner class right before the workshops as a warm-up and refresher.
