About Alchemy Salsa Dance Academy

Alchemy Dance Academy is the UK's premier salsa school, established in 2005.
If you are new to salsa we have a friendly, fun & social atmosphere at our classes to help you relax and enjoy your first salsa steps on our Beginners courses.
Those who have some prior salsa experience can expect the highest standard of teaching to take your dancing to the next level. All our salsa classes are taught On2, so we have an Introduction to On2 workshop available online for On1 dancers wishing to join Alchemy.
