Selecting dance levels at the Cuban salsa line

You can basically register at one of the following 7 dance levels: Beginner, Easy, Advanced 1, Advanced 2, Advanced 3 Advanced 4 and Advanced 5 (masterclass).

You must register with a registration dance partner at the same dance level in relation to this description of the dance levels. This is a guide so that you can register at roughly the right level in Cuban salsa, as the names for levels differ from dance school to dance school. At the Camp itself, we will make a final fine-tuning of classes and dance levels.
