My name is Kristy I am the owner of Connection Studios and I have been teaching Salsa for over 10 years.

Not only am I passionate about salsa but I have invested inordinate amounts of time and effort to understand what makes for a free-flowing, connected and enjoyable dance between two people.

I love sharing my knowledge with my students in a way that is easy to understand and implement and most of all I want to see you have fun and make use of your new skills.

Private lessons are undoubtedly the fastest way to learn to dance and improve your technique and confidence as classes are tailored to suit you.

Private classes are available in many forms depending on your goals. From simple one-hour casual classes to polish up on something you may be having troubles with in class, through to my immersion full and half-day salsa packages.

Kristy is an amazing teacher! She is energetic, patient and gives plenty of demonstrations and tips and tricks. The dance studio is spacious and private which gives plenty of room to move around and practice. As beginners, we felt extremely empowered and are walking away with a great foundation we can't wait to build on!

Teacher's response

Thanks Susan and John. It was such a pleasure to teach you Salsa and I really hope that you can enjoy dancing with each other now and utilise your moves and continue dancing.

Hope to see you on the dance floor soon

Me and my partner had so much fun in our private Salsa lesson and learnt moves that will last a lifetime.
Kristy our salsa teacher was fabulous. Would highly recommend for a date, or just a fun experience in general if you’re interested in salsa :)

Kristy was an attentive, encouraging and enthusiastic teacher. She helped my partner and I through our first salsa giving us perceptive, understandable and practical feedback. The perfect class for dancers of all skill levels. It was tons of fun and I would absolutely recommend it!

Teacher's response

Booked the class for my mums birthday as a family activity at mums request, we weren’t really sure what to expect but we had so much fun learning how to salsa, you will definitely learn all the basic moves to keep on dancing. Kristy is an amazing teacher, she was so patient with us, and was able to break the steps down and explain each move easily for us to follow as beginners to salsa and no previous formal training in any dance styles. We would definitely recommend booking this class!

Fantastic class! I was reluctant and nervous, not being a natural dancer, but this class was fun and very comfortable! It was great date night idea away from crowds

We were absolute beginners and Kristy made us feel very comfortable and patiently guided us through the steps. She is a great teacher. Looking to forward to taking lessons from her again.

We had an amazing time Kristy is an awesome teacher. She very patiently guided us through the steps and made it feel as effortless as possible.
We were absolute beginners but managed to even perform a little routine by the end Highly highly recommend Kristy’s private salsa classes :)
