Salsa lessons in San Francisco? [MI]
I had a great instructor in Boston, and now I'm trying to find a similarly great program for my boyfriend in San Francisco.
Things I liked about my past instructor: He focused on the mechanics of leading well, instead of getting all "poetry of the dance!" about it; he was a good teacher, not just a good dancer; and I think his background in lots of different ballroom dances gave him insight into how to teach uptight white folks how to move on a dance floor. Even after just a few lessons, the guys in the class were really able to *lead*, not just follow a choreographed routine.
Has anyone had similarly wonderful salsa instruction in San Fran? We don't have a car, so I'm not so much looking for recommendations all over the Bay area.
