1. The venue:

Most salsa events can happen in any types of establishment, usually it can be a hall that is rented out by the salsa instructor by the hour.

These halls can be rented in schools, government building, private offices etc.

However, having a good floor is important for this type of venue since dancing can be strenuous on the legs.

For women, these places are usually the most attractive, because there is usually no alcohol served in these premises and does not attract the rough and boisterous men who sometimes get attracted to these places.

However, you can occasionally find a good restaurant/bar that also has a great dance floor and attract the right clientele.

This is where it is important to have a good bouncer at the door that can pick out trouble-makers and keep the place safe.

Women should also turn to friends or anyone they know who are avid salsa dancers and ask for the best venues to go to.

2. The classes:

If your sole purpose is to just find women through dancing, it will probably not work for you.

There has to be genuine interest in the dance for you to attract any women of interest.

Women are usually quick to judge guys on their intention and if they don’t see something they like, they will be quick to dismiss you.

Your best bet is to learn the dance and become somewhat proficient at it and then decide to go for some of the women that interests you. In this way, you have established a presence at the place where most women will find some comfort in the familiarity of the place as well as faces.

For women, it is important that you also take time in being comfortable in the class, with the teachers and other people around you.

Try to make friends with people in the establishment before you single anyone out.

3. Asking for a date:

Some men will approach a woman directly and ask them out.

This can have positive or negative results.

You should have a good idea and be able to gauge the interest level of the woman before you ask them out.

This is way it is important to be familiar with the people around you and have made your presence known.

You can usually tell if someone is interested in you by reading some body language signals.

When asking for a date, say something casual like ‘Would you like to join me for coffee’.

If the response is positive, fix a time for the date.

Most women will not make the first move, its what separates the sexes so men are generally expected to make the first move.

It is better to ask the women out after the dance is over than during.

4. Good etiquette:

Apart from the etiquette and good manners during dancing it is important not to hover around any one woman.

If you feel that she is feeling uncomfortable, you need to give her space and allow them to dance with other leader.

Come back now and then to that person during the course of the evening to show your interest and if the feeling is mutual, you will also see a positive response from her.

When dancing with women, it is the man’s job to keep the woman from bumping into the other couples so make sure you are always aware of this.

Some woman can see this as excellent social behavior on your part and can get you additional brownie points with her.

Offer to buy them drinks also when you feel thirsty and don’t overcrowd them.

The best form of behavior is to act normal and be your-self when it comes to other women.

In this way you don’t feel uncomfortable or shy when talking to them.

Most of all enjoy the music and dance and the other things will fall into place.
