Tips on Choosing
an Instructor
For information on choosing a dance instructor, here's an
edited version of an article with some excellent advice from
the Toronto salsa site: TOsalsa,
written by Ziv Kenet and edited by Tricia Meikle and Rose
Knows.
Free classes
Probably the best introduction to Vancouver’s
salsa scene is to try one of the 'free' beginner classes at
salsa clubs (free that is after you pay the cover admission
to get in the club). Many instructors in town offer these
free classes at various clubs (check our Events
page) and it’s a great way to learn a few basic steps,
assess the instructor, see if you like their teaching style
and the material they teach. It’s also a great opportunity
to see what social dancing is like.
Word of mouth
Word of mouth is always a good indication of who
the popular instructors are. Ask around. If you have friends
who are into salsa, ask them who they recommend. Or if you
venture out to a club, ask people there about salsa instructors.
Keep in mind that many dancers are biased to the instructors
who taught them, so also ask why they recommend a particular
instructor. Try to get as many opinions as possible and this
will help you to get a good sense of which instructors are
popular.
Drop-ins
Some instructors may allow people to sit in on a
class and watch before committing to a class. It may also
be possible to do a 'drop-in' in a beginner level class where
you pay for one class to try it out. Different instructors
have different policies. These are both good ways to see a
teacher in action and the material they teach, and an opportunity
to talk with students and get feedback on the instructor.
It’s important to feel comfortable with the instructor
and the students around you. A social and fun atmosphere will
enhance your learning experience and a fun learning environment
usually means a better learning environment.
| A few things to bear in mind: |
| • |
More expensive instructors are not necessarily
better. Price does not determine the quality of an instructor. |
| |
|
| • |
Class lengths can vary anywhere from 1 to 2 hours. Take
this into account when you look at the cost. |
| |
|
| • |
Class sizes and instructor-to-student ratios vary. Many
people who take dance lessons for the first time prefer
a large class with a lot of students as it can be a less
intimidating experience. Larger classes often have a more
social and fun atmosphere and offer a greater opportunity
to meet a lot of people. For others, a smaller class may
be preferable as these can allow for more focused and
individual instruction and you’ll probably have
the opportunity to dance with the instructor(s). The more
personalized attention you receive the more likely you
are to learn faster. |
| |
|
| • |
Male or female instructor, or a couple teaching? Obviously
a female instructor may have more insight for women, and
a male instructor may have better insight for guys, but
this is not always the case. A good instructor understands
both roles and should be able to teach both guys and girls
equally well, especially at the beginner level. |
| |
|
| • |
The best dancer is not necessarily the best teacher!
There are some great dancers who are also great teachers,
but this is not always the case. An instructor's skill
set is very different from that of a dancer's. Teaching
requires a fundamental technical understanding of dancing
and human movement, gained though experience and training,
plus the ability to verbally and visually communicate
with students at a level they'll understand and learn.
These traits are not always present in a great dancer,
so don’t assume the best dancer will be the best
instructor. The only way to tell is to take or watch a
class and ask their students for their opinions. |
| |
|
| • |
Instructors who teach many different dances will more
than likely have studied various types of dance for a
long time and can use this experience and knowledge in
their classes. This experience can definitely improve
their teaching ability. |
Evaluating an Instructor's Skill
As a beginner student it is very hard to evaluate
how good an instructor is at teaching. Remember to evaluate
their teaching skills, not dancing skills. You can learn a
lot about the instructor through observation even if you are
new to dancing.
A dance instructor must have excellent understanding of
the material he/she is teaching, including being able to teach
both the men’s and women's steps, and the timing of
leading and following. An experienced instructor will be able
to warn you about common problems students have with each
step and how to prevent them.
The instructor should also be able to successfully communicate
this information to students. This is probably the most important
skill of a good instructor. Just watching an instructor perform
a specific step over and over is not enough for the average
student, the instructor should be able to break down the step
and verbally explain each segment of the pattern. They should
be able to pinpoint the problems the students are encountering
and help them through it using explanations, examples and
demonstration.
A good instructor should be approachable and open to answering
your questions.
And lastly, a good instructor should be able to encourage
the students and be understanding. A caring and fun class
atmosphere will greatly enhance the learning experience and
will most likely bring the student back.
| Keep these points in mind: |
| • |
How well does the instructor break down
the steps? Is it too fast for you? Too slow? |
| • |
At the end of the classes, did most of the students
learn what the instructor tried to teach? Did you? If
most of the students have a look of confusion at the end
of the class, the instructor most likely did not adapt
to the class level, or did not break down the steps well
enough. |
| • |
Did the instructor cover both the leaders and followers
parts thoroughly? Were student questions answered well?
Did the instructor even ask for questions and/or feedback? |
| • |
A great way to judge an instructor is by his/her students.
Can the instructor's advanced students dance well? Can
they dance with students not from the same dance school? |
In addition to these observations, any professional instructor
should be glad to answer questions you may have. The following
is a list of sample questions you should ask your potential
instructor.
| • |
Their dance/salsa experience. |
| • |
Length of time they have been teaching. |
| • |
Ask them to explain the style they teach and if it is
the same style that is most often danced at salsa events. |
Note: There are different types of classes
and different levels. The material in higher level classes
is usually not broken down as much as beginner classes. So
make sure you’re in the right class by doing a placement
evaluation with the instructor
Try a few different instructors. You will notice different
teaching styles. One is not necessarily better than another,
but you may have a favorite from which you learn the most.
The most important questions to ask yourself after the class
are: Were you happy with the lesson? Did you learn something
new? Did you enjoy the lesson? If the answers are yes, then
you’ve succeeded in finding a good instructor for you.
Private Classes
Many instructors also offer private classes. These
are more expensive than group lessons but private instruction
is one of the best ways to learn if you can afford it. Personal
attention will let you know where your mistakes are and how
to fix them. Your instructor will be able to pinpoint problems
and focus specifically on the areas you need to improve on.
However private lessons can get expensive fast.
Do I need a dance partner to learn?
You definitely do not need a partner to learn how to dance
salsa. Nearly all beginner classes accommodate students with
no partners. In case you do have a partner, please remember
that there are some advantages and disadvantages to dancing
with the same person consistently.
The advantages of having a partner is that you have someone
to practice with on a regular basis, which is great because
a lot of practice is very important.
However, practicing with only one partner should be avoided,
since your lead/follow will adjust to the partner's mistakes
or you will learn to automatically anticipate their moves
from sheer habit. So as soon as you start dancing with someone
