Belfast & beyond
Here is where you can dance
Salsa Belfast runs one night of its own — the monthly Windsor Salsa Party. For classes every week, this page is a hub that honours the friends who keep Belfast dancing. We don’t host weekly classes, but our friends across Belfast & Beyond can get your feet-moving and your shoulders-shimmying. Here they are, in alphabetical order.
“Nobody cares if you can’t dance well. Just get up and dance. Great dancers are great because of their passion.”
