English-speaking Salsa school in Zurich

Hi,


is anyone aware of a decent Salsa school in Zurich, where the teachers are willing and able to teach also in English?  I've tried salsapassion.ch and was dissapointed.  Anything else going on?


Thanks

Hi


Karl is highly overestimating my skills ;-) ... I can't run classes, I just organize going outs for dancing; the glocals members who run classes I'm aware of are RodolfoM (see above) and Winita, then you can ask them directly for info.


What I can give you are some info about schools:


In general i don't know any school where they run classes in English; I had (and still have ...) the same language issue and I found out the following


- MIGROS Klubschule Dance Academy in Oerlikon: salsa classes are run by different teachers, my teacher is Eljadusa, she teaches in (high) german but is very helpful and speak perfect English if needed.


- salsarica.ch - Hardbrucke station: again, many different classes, with many different teachers; when I was there few years ago asking info the teacher I spoke to was not really happy about the idea of speaking English (she said she doesn't know the language well enough)


- salsapower.ch - small school next to Hauptbahnhof: classes in (swiss) german, but the teacher was speaking to me in italian on request (... I'm italian ...) and i know there is at least one teacher that's south african, if I remember well, then she should speak English


- gozandosalsa.ch: small school next to Albisriederplatz, classes in german, but they speak also English (... and Italian ;-) ...)


Hope this helps !

I got to Salsarica in Hardbrücke and really enjoy it. The classes are in swiss german but most of the teachers do speak English so I can always ask questions when needed.

Hi,


'all teachers speak english' / 'you can ask if you don't understand' are just a marketing tricks.


Even when this is potentially true, it's actually not effective so for what concerns your learning process is actually false.


From my personal experience if you don't speak enough german then before your register to any school ( I know at least one ) be sure they REALLY use both languages.


Cheers.

I have similar situation last year. The place is in Rumlang, can't remember the address. Your progress depends on how much and how well you understand what you are told to do. I seriously still need a full English speaking salsa leason - not a one sentence translated from 10 sentences information.


Of lately, I have used Youtube to brush up my steps Cool It is similar to dancing in the front of a mirror, feeling younger in the mind Laughing and stupid when caught...


Bola.

Hi,


Thank you every one for this post.


It seems that the site salsapower.ch does not exist anymore but there is http://www.salsapower.com which is a portal with pages on Zurich (not a dance school).


I will be in Zurich in a few weeks and joined the FB groups.


Bis Bald.
