Weekly beginner-friendly salsa and bachata dance classes at The Stableyard, with no previous experience needed.
Follow My Lead are running their beginner salsa and bachata classes at The Stableyard in Worthing, with sessions every Thursday evening. The course kicked off on 10 September, and the next one is on Thursday 5 November, so there's plenty of room to jump in even if you missed the start.
It's a double-bill: you get both salsa and bachata in the same evening. Salsa is the high-energy one, fast and punchy; bachata is slower, more melodic, and a bit more laid-back. Learning them together gives you a good range to work with, and since they're taught side-by-side, you'll pick up the basics of both without having to commit to one or the other. The classes are built for absolute beginners, so you don't need any previous experience to turn up—they'll take you through the steps from the ground up.
Beyond the dancing, there's a strong social side to it. Follow My Lead describes itself as a place to learn both styles with soul, heart, passion and Latin flavour, and they lean into the community aspect just as much as the dancing. They talk about a great environment, awesome music and a friendly setting in which to meet new people, so it's as much about the crowd as it is about the footwork.
