I have just started doing some basic salsa recently.

Anyway I was at a venue in Surrey where salsa and jive are taught on the same night by the same teacher (Mr Lizard and David B have been there). I was struggling in the salsa classes and during the freestyle two of the women who were reasonable salsa dancers, came helped and encouraged me and were patient, and I started picking things up

They wern'r official taxis (I think), but they were great (Hi if you are reading this).

I must say it's fun being a beginner again!

My experience of Salsa is very limited. As an inept beginner I found that very few ladies would dance with me.

I wonder if the helpful attitude was a crossover from modern jive, or more general?
