It's all in the hips: River North dance studio teaches Latin moves in a fun, unintimidating atmosphere.

by Contributor

Step off the elevator into the River North studio and take in the lively, friendly and relaxed vibe of Latin Street Dancing. Latin dance rhythms pour from the four brightly painted classrooms where students learn salsa, merengue, bachata, cumbia, cha cha cha, la rueda, Argentine tango, hip-hop and more. Lisa "La Boriqua" founded the school in 1998 and has taught more than 20,000 students; today there are nearly 20 instructors who teach a variety of dances and bring their own personal style to the studio.

Learn to salsa

by d0r0thy98

This dance studio needs to be your first stop if you're planning on hitting the salsa clubs. During one course (4 weeks) you'll learn enough to get by and not look silly. The instructors are patient, and the atmosphere is light and fun. Singles are more than welcome, as you don't dance with one partner the whole time anyway.

• Pros: Instructors, Parking lot
