Friday Salsa

Join us for fun, community, and dancing every Friday at Equal Latin's Restaurant & Bar. Dance to a variety of music like Salsa, Bachata, Cumbia, etc. People dance from all over the world with us bringing different styles to the community. Just like how a language can have dialects, accents, and slang, yet still be understood. We don't believe there is a "correct" way to dance, as long as it's to the music and you and your partner are having fun!
