El Paso Ballroom Workshop – Limited EditionWorkshop: Salsa La Clave
Do you dance salsa but struggle to hear the clave?
That can be fixed — in just two hours.
The clave is the heartbeat of the music. You can dance without it, but you can’t truly connect to the rhythm. In this workshop, you’ll learn how to identify it, feel it, and apply it across all four beats of the measure — On1, On2, On3, and On4 — an essential skill most dancers never consciously develop.
And you won’t just learn it — you’ll experience it.
This workshop features a live musician, bringing the rhythm to life with congas, timbales, and clave in real time. No recordings. No empty theory. Just real music and real connection, so you can clearly understand where your movement fits within each beat.
What you’ll walk away with:
• The ability to hear and identify different types of clave: Son, Rumba, 2-3, and 3-2
• A clear understanding of how to mark every beat — On1, On2, On3, and On4
• Guided practice with live percussion: congas, timbales, and clave
• A deeper musical connection that will transform the way you dance
