A great place to learn dancing Excellent teacher and assistants with patience providing guidance. I request just more back round music while having classes to have that dance studio feel. Best of luck and more for your business Ria Mehta2025-02-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I came across the studio a few months ago by chance and oh my god what a wonderful journey it’s been so far!! Both Kevin and Shannon are some of the most down to earth and talented individuals I know and I feel so lucky to be able to learn under them. They foster such a great community and bring such vibrant energy! For me in particular, I absolutely love bachata and the way this studio completely embraces traditional and even sensual bachata is amazing!! If you are looking for a good place to start your Latin dance journey be it salsa, bachata, or zouk, look no further b/c South Street is the place to be!🥰❤️💃✨ Tommy Valenti2025-01-31Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This review is your sign! If you’ve been on the fence about learning salsa, I highly recommend taking the plunge at this studio. The instruction is clear, precise, and often inspirational. The heavy focus on partner work in each class fosters an environment for quick learning, regardless of your dance experience. The dance socials here are legendary and through the countless events they throw, I feel I’ve made new long-lasting friendships. I cannot imagine starting my dance journey at any other studio! Joann Gellibert2025-01-31Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. If you really want to know how to dance Salsa, Bachata, or Zouk, this is the place! I’ve been coming here for 3 months now and I’ve felt myself progress in skill and confidence! If I can give SSS 10 stars I would! Lauren Ramírez2025-01-31Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I joined the studio on a recommendation from Rutgers salsa club. Incredibly warm and inviting from the first minute, and while I went for salsa, I've ended up staying for both batchata and zouk courses. The instruction is constructive and kind no matter what level or course I have attempted. If you're looking for a place that encourages you to stretch your capabilities while having fun, this is it. Travis2025-01-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend going to South Street Salsa for Salsa, Bachata, or Zouk dance classes. Kevin is an awesome teacher and tailors his lessons to the appropriate level, which means that there's plenty to learn whether you're a beginner, intermediate, or advanced dancer. With a membership, you also get access to weekly practice sessions and monthly socials. The studio has a friendly and inviting atmosphere, and Kevin is very open to hearing feedback about how the studio can improve. There is a great community of people that extends beyond the class and into the Discord app, where you can review dance combination videos from previous classes, ask for recommendations about anything, network for career opportunities, or plan to meet up with others for social events. So if you're looking to take dance classes where you can learn, have fun, and be part of a great community, then check out South Street Salsa! Ashley Lynn Qua2025-01-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The vibes? Immaculate. The community? Absolutely loving. The instructors? Super sweet and ready to answer all of your questions. Honestly, the classes are really comfortable and you can get started in just socks and even if you have two left feet, they make it super easy. There's zero judgement and everyone feels super supportive of one anothers wins. The environment is really nice and whether you want to twirl the night away at a social or have a cute date night with someone you love, it's a great time for sure. Melissa Bee2025-01-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've been attending South Street Salsa for a while now, and I can honestly say it’s more than just a dance studio—it’s a community. They teach salsa, bachata, and zouk with a perfect balance of technique, fun, and connection. The owner and main teacher is not only incredibly knowledgeable but also genuinely kind and invested in his students (or as he calls us, his "kids"). He creates an environment where everyone feels welcome, supported, and encouraged to grow. Beyond the classes, we go on school trips to socials, host events, and truly look out for one another. It’s a place where you don’t just learn to dance—you become part of something meaningful. My progress has been amazing, and I’m so grateful to be part of this wonderful community. If you're looking for a place to dance, connect, and grow, I highly recommend South Street Salsa! 💃🏻🩵💙❤️ Judita Tothova2025-01-26Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

At South Street Salsa, our mission is to create an environment that fosters growth and joy. Every day, we provide high-quality dance instruction, equipping our students with the skills and confidence to shine on the dance floor. We believe that anyone can become a true dance artist—even those who never imagined they could—but our mission runs deeper than just teaching steps.
Learning something new requires feeling safe and supported. That sense of comfort unlocks potential, and it’s what sets South Street Salsa apart. Maintaining this environment isn’t always easy—it takes safety, mutual respect, and consistent support—but it’s worth it. Watching our students grow, not just in dance but in life, is what makes this work so fulfilling.
Our monthly Salsa/Bachata/Zouk Social. This social is 8pm-1am and is included in every membership but is open to the public for $15. , no street shoes on the dance floor please, be polite, make sure everyone is getting dances, don’t drink a lot, etc. Very occasionally we’ll have performances.
No partner? No problem! We rotate partners during class so everyone gets a chance to dance. Just bring yourself and your best attitude—we’ve got the rest covered.

Comfort is key. Casual clothes, socks for spins (seriously, they help), and a bottle of water are all you need. If you decide to stick around (yay!), we’ll recommend dance shoes or heels based on your goals.
