In this Couple Salsa Workshop for Beginners, we practice the basics steps, rhythmics, some simple figures as well as technique of Cuban Couple Salsa, also known as Casino.
This course starts from the very beginning, so you do not need to have any previous dance experience to join.
The workshop has a voluntary exchange ring, where you change dance partners during the class. If you wish, you can join the exchange ring or just dance with your own dance partner during the class.

Anna Ketopaikka
The course is held by Flama’s founder, Anna Ketopaikka, who has been dancing Cuban Salsa for over 15 years and teaching it since 2014.
Dance captured Anna’s heart at an early age: she started dancing at the age of 5 in Ballet classes at the Tampere Ballet Institute. Over the years, she continued to study dance, including Jazz and Show Dance. Since 2010, Anna has focused intensively on Cuban dances. She trained as a salsa instructor with Cuban Ramón Silverio and she has been teaching since 2014.
“I founded Flama out of a burning passion for dance and movement. Dance has brought so much energy, strength, presence and dear friends to my life and I want to be able to share this pleasure to others as well. In my classes, I want to inspire people above all to find strength and joy in everyday life through dance.”
At Flama, Anna teaches Cuban Salsa (Solo and Couple Salsa) and other Cuban dances, such as Son and Rumba as well as Bachata and Reggaeton.
