Testimonials
If you want to learn On2 salsa LA Mambo is the place to begin your journey. Jhony and Veronica do an excellent job of breaking down the basic steps and spend quality time teaching musicality and timing which is the backbone of On2. You will have so much fun taking these classes, learning new skills, and dancing with great people!
These salsa classes are very different than other ones that I have taken. Without these classes I do not think I would have progressed the way I have. They do not focus on choreography but focus on learning your basics and musicality. Whether you want to dance on 1 or on 2 these classes are extremely beneficial. Both Jhony and Veronica are very patient and want to make sure that everyone gets it. The atmosphere is so friendly that it is easy to ask them to repeat things. —Leslie Z.
Jhony and Veronica and very patient and do an Amazing job at making things fun. Salsa is supposed to be fun and that's what happens at the classes.
The way the steps are broken down by Jhony and Veronica give the first time Mambo dancer the confidence that he/she will learn them and execute them on the dance floor without any hesitations.
It is clear that Jhony and Veronica are as focused on making learning to dance fun. I have learned so much from them and their easy-going approach makes it clear that it's ok to make mistakes. For beginners this is essential. They are great at spotting areas that need improvement and will slow down the pace to make sure everyone is improving at the same rate.
