About Piotrek & Krystal
Piotrek & Krystal have been teaching together live classes year round in Portsmouth NH and Newburyport MA for 5 years. They came together with a distinct desire for the dance to be a modality for self exploration, growth and healing. Piotrek and Krystal's students have raved for years about their unique and effective style of teaching. They combine the development of proper technique with the spirit of the dance. This way of teaching engages all parts of the body: physical, mental, emotional and spiritual, which leads to dancing that is extremely rich.
"Level one part two is such a fun class. We dive into the idea of exchanging places on the dance floor and playing with turn patterns. Teaching this level one part 2 segment is extremely rewarding as it is an integral component in salsa dancing and in developing the relationship between a leader and a follower. The importance of the relationship and the roles starts to take form and we begin to blossom as unique individuals on the dance floor. We can't wait to see what unfolds for you!" - Krystal & Piotrek
Take that next step with your dancing, open your heart and allow the exchange of places to reflect the exchange and expansion of energy.
My wife and I really enjoy Salsa Secrets; I've found the teaching to be patient, encouraging, and well-paced and the sessions to be very supportive and community building. If you're looking for a place to have fun, meet people, and build skills, this is it! - Sarah Hart

When will I be ready to go out social dancing?
Social dancing can be a really fantastic experience, but you must be open to the idea that when you dance, there will be many different levels of dancers. Dance isn't about how you rank compared to anyone else, its about how you feel within you! The only difference between you and an advanced dancer is more repetition. Salsa Secrets holds social dances the first Saturday of each month in Portsmouth, NH. All levels are welcomed!
