The Latin Quarter Salsa Bootcamp will give total beginners and returning dancers a concentrated introduction to salsa and bachata at Dundee Deaf Hub on 21 July 2026. The workshop begins at 18:30 and costs £25 when booked in advance by bank transfer, or £30 on the door with cash payment only.

Information published by Leisure and Culture Dundee describes the bootcamp as an accelerated alternative to weekly lessons. It is intended both for people starting from scratch and for dancers who want to refresh the basics, with material equivalent to four or five weeks of weekly classes brought together in one evening.

What the salsa and bachata bootcamp includes

The main learning session lasts 2.5 hours, including a short break halfway through. Both salsa and bachata are included, so participants can expect a structured introduction to the fundamentals of the two dance styles rather than a workshop devoted to only one of them.

A short guided practice session follows the tuition. This gives dancers an immediate opportunity to revisit what they have learned while guidance remains available. The organisers present the format as an intensive learning experience, with the aim of preparing participants to start using the basics on the dance floor at social events.

That concentrated structure is the central distinction of the bootcamp. Instead of requiring attendance over several weeks, it brings the introductory material into a single evening. It may therefore be relevant to people who have not had time to commit to weekly classes, as well as those returning to salsa or bachata after time away.

Limited places and two payment options

Places will be limited to preserve teaching time, according to the event information. Advance booking provides the lower £25 rate and requires payment by bank transfer. Anyone choosing to pay at the venue will be charged £30 and must bring cash; entry at the door will remain subject to places being available.

The difference between the two options makes early contact particularly useful for anyone who wants the advance price or needs to confirm that space remains. The published information does not provide a separate online ticket link or state a booking deadline.

Check the venue details before travelling

The confirmed venue is Dundee Deaf Hub, but the listing does not include its street address, transport guidance or accessibility information. It also gives no confirmed finishing time: only the 2.5-hour learning session, its short break and the guided practice afterwards are specified. Anyone who needs precise location, access or end-time details should seek confirmation before making travel arrangements.

How to book or ask a question

Prospective participants are directed to Salsa Dundee or LQsalsadundee@gmail.com for booking and contact information. Those seeking the £25 advance rate should make contact before attending because advance payment must be arranged by bank transfer. The Latin Quarter Salsa Bootcamp takes place at Dundee Deaf Hub on 21 July 2026, starting at 18:30.
