Sarah is a heart-centered educator, empowerment coach, and passionate Salsa Instructor.

She believes in providing you with the tools and skills to set you up for success on and off the dance floor. That means creating a vibrant, welcoming, and down-to-earth learning environment where questions are encouraged and laughter is plentiful.

Precision is key, however, with any movement-based activity or sport. Feedback you receive on techniques in class will be highly detailed ensuring you build solid and lasting fundational mastery.

Dance has always been a passion for Sarah, but it wasn't until living abroad in the Dominican Republic, she discovered what it meant to dance in community. Connecting with neighbors and friends of all ages celebrating expression, relaxatation, and Life.

Upon moving to Denver in 2016 Sarah discovered Salsa and dove into 4 years of training to become an instructor.

In 2021 Social Salsa Dance was founded, to reuinite and dance with community. She drew on her background as an athlete, coach, educator, and energy healer to structure a new kind of curriculum that not only focuses on dance techique, but also the social etiquette and energetics of dance.

Sarah / Founder

Sarah is a heart centered educator, empowerment coach, and passionate Salsa Instructor.
She believes in providing you the tools and skills to set you up for success on and off the dance floor. That means creating a vibrant, welcoming, and down to earth learning environment where questions are encouraged and laughter is plentiful. Precision is key however, with any movement based activity or sport, so you will receive highly detailed feedback on techniques to build a solid foundation for each series of movements you learn.

Sarah has always loved to dance and can’t seem to sit still whenever or wherever there is music playing. It wasn’t until 2013 though (while with Peace Corp) in the Dominican Republic, she began to see and understand what it meant to dance in and with community. The celebration, the relaxation, the gathering of all ages together to connect, express, and have fun. It was incredible, and a piece of life she wanted to continue creating upon return to the United States. In 2016 she found Salsa. For four years she trained to become an instructor with Black Belt Salsa, before branching out and founding Social Salsa Dance.

In the hours Sarah isn't dancing, she continues to deepen her knowledge and practice as an Energy Healer, spend as much time as possible outdoors, and loves researching places to visit around the world.

Cuba / DJ

DJ Cuba has been bringing the music and setting the scene for the past 13 years. Inspired upon a trip to Puerto Rico, where he was awed by the variety of songs he heard while out dancing, DJ Cuba dove into learning how to recreate that experience to share with others. He carries the music in his soul, and loves seeing people happy and out dancing to the music.
When he's not searching for new songs, DJ Cuba loves supporting the Avalanche and traveling!
