Michael is a fantastic teacher! Neither my spouse or I had any prior salsa dancing experience and his style of teaching is fun, effective, and now we've signed up for Salsa 2 because we want to keep learning from this place!

Michael is a fantastic instructor, who has built an amazing studio. He has the perfect combination of technique, patience, fun, and challenge all-at-once. He is great at breaking down the fundamentals and important details in manageable chunks so that you feel both competent and motivated. He is friendly and non-intimidating for all levels of dancers. It is very apparent that he cares deeply for the individual growth of his dancers. His passion for dance and his students really shows. If you want to learn salsa/bachata, or further your skills, in a fun and nurturing environment, this is the place to be. Seattle is lucky to have such a great instructor. You won't regret it!

This is a great spot, with several dance floors and space for privates. Michael is the best teacher in Seattle, I don't know why it took me so long to try this place out. Definitely recommend.

I started this whole salsa "thing" back in March when Michael was still in Fremont. His charisma and ability to help his students understand rhythm, technique and musicality are what keep me coming back. Within 6 months I've learned so much from Michael that I'm considering joining a performance team.

I have dabbled in Salsa off and on for a few years, and really appreciate this studio. Michael is an incredibly talented teacher, who can break things down in steps and movements that you can practice at home. He is approachable, and honest in feedback about what you are doing well and what needs work. He teaches steps, movement, musicality and balance in a clear and thoughtful way. If you are progressing he will push and challenge you to improve. I have done Salsa series lessons as well as privates and find them all really great.

Suenos de Salsa is my go-to salsa studio! They have a great selection of classes, with both a lead and follow instructor represented at each session. Michael, the head instructor, is completely approachable, making class both fun and dynamic. Where other studios often seem to have a click-ish vibe, Suenos keeps things friendly and relaxed; an easy start for beginners, and fun for more advanced students to keep coming back. Love that they have a membership option, to take advantage of getting in on the different styles too! Definitely recommend.

EXCELLENT studio! Michael is a great and patient, sometimes humorous teacher. My boyfriend and I really enjoy his Salsa drop-in classes. My only complaint is that they're not offered on days other than Thursdays right now as our schedule conflicts. I HIGHLY recommend this beautiful, small studio!!

Just finished up the salsa 1 classes and I highly recommend Suenos de Salsa. I just started learning and had no experience and I felt that Michael really broke down the moves and explained everything perfectly. If you ever take a salsa class or want to get into it, this is the place to go!!!

I took private lessons from Michael, and I'm very glad I did.
He broke everything down into its simplest, most fundamental forms, which made it very easy for me to understand. He uses multiple media - from music (obviously) to mirrors to a whiteboard to dry-erase marker on the floor (!!).
He is a gifted dance instructor. If you want to learn salsa, do yourself a favor and come here first.

If you ever consider taking a Salsa lesson, Suenos de Salsa is the one!
Michael is an excellent instructor and very welcoming.
Regardless what level you are, you will have fun learning and truly feel the love for salsa!
I went to Suenos de Salsa for drop in class (by myself), immediately I felt I was very welcomed and was able to relax, enjoyed myself!
How cool is that!?
I visited Suenos' website and read history/recommended reading.
It tells a lot why this place is full of positive energy and people are just keep coming back!!!
Love for dance... that exists in this place. Very special
You should come to this place if you are looking for some sheer joy and love for dance!
Practice, practice!!! Have fun!!!
