ABOUT

The Place To Learn Bachata & Salsa

​

Through our classes and events we aim to provide a release from day to day work; where you can escape into vibrant Latin sounds and make new friends as well as meeting old ones.

 

Learning to dance brings a sense of achievement, while letting your body move to the music helps you to forget your cares. Above all, dancing brings the opportunity to have fun!

Steve Eden
Founder, Promoter, Teacher & DJ

 

Steve has been on the Salsa scene since 1998 and has been running his own Salsa company called Salsa Sensation, since Feb 2000. Nearly all your stars of Salsa have worked with Steve at one of his many clubs and events. As an outsider looking in you can see that Steve really does genuinely know and love them all. This is evident with the appreciation he shows to every single person that he has worked with and for. Steve has introduced thousands of people to the dance world of Salsa through various different events from regular weekly night to party nights, All dayers (both UK and International), Weekend breaks away, Salsa holidays abroad, many charity events, (holding fundraisers with Mayors and Mayoress), to launching a whole new movement which was called ‘Gravesham Activ’ with Len Goodman and so much more.

 

There really is no end to Steve's list of achievements, inside and outside of Salsa. Being a self taught dancer, teaching is a passion of Steve's in ALL areas of dance.

 

It all began at the age of 12 when he found his love of music and dance. With a personal development programme, he continuously strived and still strives to bring the best to every area of dance of which he is part of and this does not limit itself to just Salsa! 

 

Steve is well known by all throughout the dance world of Kent and surrounding counties. He has helped masses of people through their journey of dance, whether it be to become a Professional Qualified Instructor or to become a damn good dancer and/or performer, of which some of his students have been seen on TV, in the West End Shows and many others. Teaching classes is his true passion, and you can see it when he teaches.

 

The classes are energetic and loads of fun, but you still have a great sense of achievement. In addition to this, Steve also really connects with the people he teaches. When asking students of his classes why this is, their response was "Every time I come to a class of Steve's, he is really understanding of everyone in the class and our abilities, yet really wants to help us push through and achieve more. No rushing, no belittling, no rolling of eyes, just continuous positive energy, so you really can't do anything but smile and take it all in." Steve the DJ absolutely loves playing for the vast and varied audiences he reaches, and this really comes across in the music he plays. Always playing a wide range of music and certainly knowing how to read the floor, he mixes in all the best of the classics and the moderns of the Salsa scene, blending in other styles with ease, such as Bachata, Kizomba, Cha Cha Cha, Reggaeton, even through to a touch of RnB, from the soft and gentle to the fast and furious.
