Every salsa dancer has a wish to relax and feel confident while dancing, and be in connection with the music and his partner. But in reality lots of problems appear. Check the experience that most of my students share with me:
• I get lost in solo and don't know what to dance • I constantly wonder if I did the movement right or not, in the music or not. • I'm afraid of looking sexy, but I want to dance with all my heart and express emotions and sexuality • The dance looks like a set of mechanical skills counting beats, but the music passes by and I feel like I’m dancing separately to the music • I hear that the music has changed, but I don't know how to dance to different rhythms or changes in the music • The difference between those who dance music and those who just make some steps and moves is striking, I want to improvise sincerely.
there is no clear understanding about how to use the Footwork from classes during salsa parties
you have short Fragments of knowledge about different styles of Cuban salsa without understanding how they interact between each other and how to use them musically in a dance
you are not sure how to use information about musical instruments that teachers pay attention to - congas, claves — what to do with them?
you feel timba music as a mess and a cacophony of rhythms, where it's not clear how to start, what to dance... So you have to “spy” on what a partner is doing and copy the movements.
These problems often arise because:
No wonder — Cuban salsa (or, more accurate name, timba) is really a COMPLICATED music.
Much more than just steps on 123 567. It combines a variety of rhythms, instruments, and styles. Your favorite songs have musical parts that are simply uncomfortable to dance only 123 567 salsa steps, and this often causes a stupor for beginners.
These parts can be: rumba, afro, reggaeton, pachanga, cha-cha-cha, and others, even bachata and reggae can be found.
So, dancing to timba music is quite a challenging task.
But you won't just master the "steps" of these styles. You will understand the whole system:
the structure of timba music, understanding each BLOCK that a song is build of + what RHYTHM and STYLE can be heard in each block of the song + what STEPS fit each rhythm or block of the song + How to improve BODY MOVEMENT for each of the steps that you know
〰️
Cuban salsa basic steps. It can be improved endlessly. Make them more flavorful and soft, feminine and neat.
How to transfer body weight in the steps correctly
How to incorporate body rotations while making the steps
How to build a proper posture in order to be comfortable in making the steps
How to add hips and chest moves so that the steps don’t look robotic
What to do with hands so that they look natural and nice
This training will allow you to feel yourself comfortableand efficient while dancing not only basics but also more complicated steps
What does knowledge of rumba give to a dancer?
• The heartbeat of a dance - the clave! rumba is an essential part of rhythmic foundation of timba and you need to learn to hear it. • Body movement - plasticity, richness of the moves, natural flow and bouncing, smooth work of hips - all this is about rumba • Excellent form - muscles get tonus, body shape changes and becomes appetising, if you perform the technique correctly.
You may not apply rumba in your salsa, but without it, it will be very difficult to tune the necessary quality and hip work.
Rumba Guaguanco module will add a proper flow and style to your Cuban salsa
Son, contratiempo -is about grace, elegance in the style and arms movements, it gives a sense of dancing without a hurry
When music becomes softer, more gentle, there is a desire to slow down and dance accordingly. It is enough to shift all the movements just one beat (on contratiempo), and the character of a dance will become completely different.
What will bring contratiempo in your dance? - Elegance of movements. Contratiempo is a great way to get rid of rush, to dance gracefully, as if with a delay. - Beautiful hand lines, new step geometry. - Great musicality - you learn to work with different rhythms, hear and feel the music.
Despelote is a special moment in dance. It is the expression of ecstasy from everything that is happening to you: pleasure of life, feeling of the exact moment, music, people around.
It is a merging of the brightest points:
• peak moment in the music - the BOMBS. The music changes and it's impossible not to notice. • peak emotions. It's impossible not to feel how musicians lift you high on emotional swings. • peak moment of the dance - DESPELOTE. Those who are not aware of what it, just get lost, continue making figures, or just stop dancing, because the music changed, and a common understandable rhythm disappeared
Of course, at first, you can ignore the fact that at some point the song completely changes its rhythm and the play of instruments. You can continue stepping 123-567, even though they no longer align with the music. But you risk not experiencing the waves of goosebumps running all over your body and the incredible sense of drive when the music takes you to the peak! Believe me, it is worth of it.
Despelote - reveals freedom provocation and sensuality. The peak of the song.
If you have ever thought "I want to dance like that," I suggest breaking it down into elements from my 2 videos ->
Here you can see that 80% of my improvisation is based on a well-practiced foundation:
cuban salsa
rumba
afro
son
despelote
That's why I suggest not postponing the study of these styles so that you can achieve results as quickly as possible! After all, I also started with basic steps!
And besides, you won't be able to escape from these styles anyway if you continue to dance salsa:)
The course will build a foundation onto which ANY new element that you will learn in the future can easily be added.
"Well, that's you! You've been in salsa for so many years, I don't have the same grace..."
Learn to combine the basics in dance. Create your unique dance.

"I learnt things on the course that I had no idea about in my years of dancing."
Ekaterina Dymova
I am happy to have found such a sensitive and wonderful teacher - there are very few of them. I learnt things on the course that I had no idea about during my years of dancing. Katya gives very cool tools and clearly explains how to use them in dance. The course "The ABCs of Cuban Salsa" is waterless - a lot of practice and a bit of theory, it's very cool! Of course, I still have a lot to work on, but now I have an understanding of HOW to do it, and that is very valuable.

"This is the best course I have purchased at all ever)) my understanding of dance has expanded! Really. No one has ever told me about dance like this"
Alexandra Kholodinskaya
This is the first course I bought from Katya, but it is the best course I have ever bought)) my idea of dance has expanded 180 degrees! Really. I didn't expect something impossible, I tried not to expect anything at all, but after the first lesson I was like "waaaay! This is exactly what I needed!".
The feeling of myself in the dance changed, the fear that I remember only the basic steps started to go away. What's more, I'm now high on the basic steps! Now I can even stop or slow down in the dance (and before it didn't even occur to me that it was possible😂).
Of course, I still have to work and work, but my dance will not be the same!) it will be different, but definitely the way I want and how I will feel it. Thank you!

"I am just thrilled with the ABCs of Salsa Womanity course! My attitude to music and movements has completely changed. I started to feel my body differently, I started to feel the inner pulsation, I began to understand the unity of music and movement".
Galina Shabelnikova
I am just thrilled with the course "The ABCs of Salsa Womanity! My attitude to music and movements has completely changed. I began to feel my body differently, I began to feel the inner pulsation, I began to understand the unity of music and movement. In general, it became much easier to dance, because the inner fuss disappeared.
I just stopped relying on 1. For a very long time it was such a crutch, which somewhere helped, but also madly hindered, because I could not coordinate my movements and music, there was a sense of chaos.
Now I rely entirely on my inner pulsation and that clutter is gone, even if the music is very fast.
All the blocks are very interesting. I enjoyed all of them. I would like to learn rumba and despelote in detail. I also got really high from the sleep block. I really enjoyed feeling myself in the rhythm of contratiempo.
I thank Katya from the bottom of my heart for such a high-quality and interesting presentation of the material. I heard many things on this course and heard them in such a way that they became clear and natural to me. One can feel that a person has put his soul into this course and really wants to teach to dance beautifully and understand the culture of dance, its peculiarities and traditions.
I am very grateful to my tutor Olesa for very powerful support, for such a thorough analysis of my movements and clear, understandable comments and of course for the positivity))) 🤗🤗🤗🤗)

"I, of course, as a person extremely distrustful, read the reviews and was surprised, the girls wrote that Katya's courses give more than offline classes. I can confirm that it is true!"
Natalia Malashkeevich
The ABC of Salsa course is over. I, of course, as a person extremely distrustful, read reviews and was surprised, the girls wrote that Katina's courses give more than offline classes. I can confirm, it is true! This course gave me an understanding and structure of the world of dance of another nation, which is absolutely new to me. Theoretical part, detailed, detailed analysis of basic movements, practising under music are collected in modules on directions, everything is very logical, no "water". In today's unstable world, probably, many people do not have extra time and money, but you know I did not regret for a second about the resources spent. Immersing myself in this course gives the right direction in learning Cuban culture and dance and allows me to develop my own dancing. Also, there are so many useful extra bonuses on the platform! )) It's good that my tariff opens up long term access to study! I can't imagine how much energy, effort and knowledge I need to invest to get such an interesting and high quality course! I also want to say THANK YOU to my tutor Alyona for her sensitive support, hints, detailed answers to my questions!))))))

Alla Alexeeva
Katerina, thank you so much for the ABCs of Salsa Womanity course! For those who started dancing not so long ago, this is just a godsend! I lacked initial knowledge in different directions. It is very important that apart from technical nuances a lot of attention is paid to musicality and psychological moments. I would also like to mention the warm-up on general plasticity, I like it very much! Thank you for sharing your knowledge, skills and experience with us, opening new horizons for development! I hope that I will have the opportunity to take other courses. Thank you! 🌺

"Now people ask me at parties too, 'How do you move like that, how do you do that with your shoulders, etc.?"

I saw Katya on some girl's video and I said to myself, "I want to do that."
Now people ask me at parties: "How do you move like that, how do you do that with your shoulders, etc.?".
Patient mentors, lots of cool music, support, online sports training with Katya is a separate high, it's like I'm together with a friend занималась❤️🔥.
There is so much information in the course itself... that it can be studied again and again, and each time you find and remember something new.
General chat)))) oh how we all experienced there together on rumba, then on afro, then on Womanity bends😅 it's such an incredible atmosphere and support, I got so used to it in a month.
Katya, you showed me меня❤️ Thank you for what you do

"The course focuses a lot on the state with which one must dance in order for dance to become an art and not just a set of movements"
Ekaterina Sidorenkova
This is my first course of this kind, the result exceeded all expectations! In addition to technique and detailed analysis of movements Katusha gives a detailed understanding of music, the history of salsa, a lot of interesting theoretical material, as well as philosophy, the soul of dance! The course pays a lot of attention to the state with which you need to dance, so that the dance became an art, and not just a set of movements. I will definitely go to other courses of Katya. Thank you to the team, and a special thanks to the curator Alena, who answered all the questions and corrected some points in my training

"It's a real ABC that you learn gradually, you learn to speak body language, you work on your dance vocabulary and then you really start to get high on the music, hear it and completely dissolve into it!"
Elina Riehl
Katusha, thank you so much for this extraordinary course "The ABCs of Salsa Womanity"😍 It is so easy to understand, absolutely accessible to learn, it has everything laid out in a box, which I especially lacked. Detailed analysis of the basic step, working out the plasticity, a variety of female chips in the dance, musicality, the work of the hands and body and so much more very necessary and useful! This is a real alphabet, which you learn gradually, you learn to speak body language, work out the dance vocabulary and then really start to get high from the music, hear it and completely dissolve in it! Thank you Katusha and the girls mentors for the opportunity to learn, develop and feel really free! 😘

"This course covers different techniques to build an interesting dance, giving you the opportunity to refine and understand the different directions of salsa dance"
Mila Beknefesova
Thank you for the ABCs of Salsa Womanity course! This is not my first course with Katya and the Salsa Womanity team. And each course in its own way is multifaceted and full. This course highlights different techniques to build an interesting dance, gives the opportunity to refine and understand the different directions of salsa dance. Also a good bonus is a warm-up, which helps to properly prepare the body, so that more accessible were the movements. It is important that a lot of attention is paid to femininity in the dance, not just technical execution. Thank you!

"I would compare Katya to a lighthouse, and her courses to the light of a beacon that guides you step by step towards the confidence and enjoyment of your dance"
Dinara Rudenko
I would compare Katya to a lighthouse, and her courses to the light of a lighthouse that guides you step by step towards confidence and pleasure in your dancing. I've been in social dancing for almost 10 years, I've been to festivals, congresses, masterclasses, but even with this in mind the course "ABC of Cuban Salsa" was effective, it's useful to go back to the base: to brush up on some moves, to remember simple ones that can become a wand. Lots more information in the chats, from the tutors and personally from Кати❤️.

"The ABCs of Salsa Womanity course put everything in my head, taught me to listen to the music and made friends with my body. I am no longer so scared to dance solo and dance anywhere if I want to"
Elena Sokolovskaya
The course "The ABCs of Salsa Womanity" is my second online course in my life). I came to it immediately after taking the first one - a rumba course with the same Katya. I am a person who for a long time rejected and did not perceive online learning, so if you think the same about yourself, I recommend you to try it here. Katya is not just a professional in her field, she is also a marvellous guide - one who can immerse you in the wonderful world of Cuban music and dance in an incredible way. The ABCs of Salsa Womanity course put everything in my head, taught me how to listen to the music and made my body friends with it. I am no longer so scared to dance solo and dance anywhere if I feel like it. I'm sure this is just the beginning. I will probably take all of Katina's courses gradually with my permanent mentor Tatiana Zakharova)

"I have been on two courses: the rumba and the ABCs of Cuban Salsa, both courses are amazing, informative, intense, very interesting; thanks to them I started to hear rhythms, to incorporate different styles into the dance, and most importantly not to be afraid of solos"
Liana Ayetova
I am immensely happy that I heard about Katerina and her courses from an acquaintance, and most importantly, that I took them and I think I have grown a lot since then. My skills have improved, my perception of music and dance in general has changed. Your courses, Katerina, are not just about dance, movements and musicality, they are so deep that they are about psychology, relationships and life in general. I have been on two courses: on rumba and on "ABC of Cuban salsa", both courses are amazing, informative, rich, very interesting; thanks to them I started to hear rhythms, to insert different styles into the dance, and most importantly not to be afraid of solos. I really like that the courses have structure, gradual immersion in the information, and most importantly the musicality. I get a kick out of the musicality modules. Thank you for creating such training, for making us better and happier. Looking forward to the next courses! ☺️

"The course is very intense, interesting, just like timba itself. I learnt from the heart with pleasure and got a high from the process and new knowledge and skills"
Gulnara Chumarina
A wonderful, bombastic course that works on body and brain, plasticity and musicality. It is cool that you need to film yourself and send videos, from the outside already see yourself and see how you move in reality, on the mirror you dance completely different 😂. I thank Katusha and my mentor Alena for such a clear explanation, presentation of the material. The course is very rich and interesting, just like timba itself. I was engaged from the heart with pleasure and got a high from the process and new knowledge and skills. Prosperity to you and your course "The ABC of Salsa"

"The world of salsa opened up a new side of me."
Evgeniya Antoshkina
The ABCs of Salsa was my first course with Katya. I got there quite by accident, I saw the advertisement, read the course outline and realised that this was what I needed. The course covers all the key moments in the dance (I realised that there is salsa and there is timba). The world of salsa opened up for me from a new side. Katya makes the material incredibly easy, clear and accessible. And I want to understand and go deeper into everything (and in musicality and in different blocks of dance). And this course is just the beginning for me))

"If, when I started Salsa I had had the opportunity to take this course, The ABCs of Salsa, my dancing would have been enriched much sooner..."
Oksana Melnikova
This is not my first course with Katya. But like the previous courses, it was very useful for me! 🌹 It helped me to put in order, to structure the material I already knew, and somewhere to fill in some gaps. If, when I started Salsa (understanding what Timba is and how it differs from Salsa came to me only in the first course, which I took with Katya, on Despelota) I had the opportunity to take this course, the ABC of Salsa, my dancing would have been enriched much earlier ... For those who are close to Timba/Salsa, who want to dance beautifully and technically - I highly recommend this course! 💃 It has everything you need to dance Timba/Salsa: clear, accessible, informative and very musical! Katya, very happy to learn from you and your team! Thank you so much 🤗 I wish you (you and your team) more creative ideas, inspiration and luck to realise them! ❤️

You are a big smart girl and a hard worker! I went through your "ABC", learnt a lot of new things, and you also "spoke" with words some of the points that unconsciously rolled around in my head. The course is very informative! Thank you a million times!

"For 2 years I have been living with Salsa Womanity. And that's no exaggeration - the project and its courses have become a big and significant part of my life. It's a deep dive into timba and its components that no one else gives!"
Veronika Aranovskaia
I have been living with Salsa Womanity for almost 2 years now. And that's no exaggeration - the project and its courses have become a big and significant part of my life. It is a deep immersion into timba and its components, which no one else gives! Great theoretical base, interesting, time-consuming and rich practical lessons - a unique mix of Katya and beautiful responsive girls. Each Salsa Womanity course is a confirmation of the effectiveness of online learning. And the most important thing is that the practical part and the presentation of the material is done in such a way that you won't hurt your back/leg/head and other things - very carefully, with care for health and with love for each body. I recommend it to everyone and everything written here is definitely not exaggerated.
"When you study something for a long time, with different teachers, with different levels and approaches, you accumulate a pile of fragmentary information, knowledge, skills, and then Katya comes and puts everything in its place. And to this neatly laid out knowledge she also puts some new things that you have never seen before"
Anastasia Lisina
I'll be honest, The ABCs of Cuban Salsa is my second course with Katerina. I failed the first intensive, "The Art of Small Steps" (yes, the New Year holidays are not the best time for me to learn something new, and it seems that the format of a short intensive is not for me). That's why the decision to participate in the course "The ABCs of Cuban Salsa" was already more conscious for me, and the Introductory module of the course somehow immediately set the mood to take a responsible approach to studying the material and doing the assignments. And how glad I am that I gave myself a second chance to receive from Katerina all the valuable information she gives in her courses! When you learn something for a long time, from different teachers, with different levels and approaches, you accumulate a pile of fragmentary information, knowledge, skills, and here comes Katya and puts everything in its place. And to this neatly laid out knowledge she also puts some new, previously unseen by you, things. And all this in a fairly short period of time and without any incredible efforts. I really enjoyed the course so much that I was waiting for the time when I would start the next lesson as some kind of a gift. And also special thanks for the mini-courses on plastic and body care, which were a bonus to the main course. I know the assignments in these courses were not tested, but I did them faithfully and that's what I needed! Now I look at my point A and point B and it seems to me that I even look different, not to mention the added understanding of dance

There is so much information in the course itself... that it can be studied again and again, and each time you find and remember something new.
General chat)))) oh how we all experienced there together on rumba, then on afro, then on Womanity bends😅 it's such an incredible atmosphere and support, I got so used to it in a month.
Katya, you showed me меня❤️ Thank you for what you do

"The course focuses a lot on the state with which one must dance in order for dance to become an art and not just a set of movements"
Ekaterina Sidorenkova
This is my first course of this kind, the result exceeded all expectations! In addition to technique and detailed analysis of movements Katusha gives a detailed understanding of music, the history of salsa, a lot of interesting theoretical material, as well as philosophy, the soul of dance! The course pays a lot of attention to the state with which you need to dance, so that the dance became an art, and not just a set of movements. I will definitely go to other courses of Katya. Thank you to the team, and a special thanks to the curator Alena, who answered all the questions and corrected some points in my training

"It's a real ABC that you learn gradually, you learn to speak body language, you work on your dance vocabulary and then you really start to get high on the music, hear it and completely dissolve into it!"
Elina Riehl
Katusha, thank you so much for this extraordinary course "The ABCs of Salsa Womanity"😍 It is so easy to understand, absolutely accessible to learn, it has everything laid out in a box, which I especially lacked. Detailed analysis of the basic step, working out the plasticity, a variety of female chips in the dance, musicality, the work of the hands and body and so much more very necessary and useful! This is a real alphabet, which you learn gradually, you learn to speak body language, work out the dance vocabulary and then really start to get high from the music, hear it and completely dissolve in it! Thank you Katusha and the girls mentors for the opportunity to learn, develop and feel really free! 😘

"This course covers different techniques to build an interesting dance, giving you the opportunity to refine and understand the different directions of salsa dance"
Mila Beknefesova
Thank you for the ABCs of Salsa Womanity course! This is not my first course with Katya and the Salsa Womanity team. And each course in its own way is multifaceted and full. This course highlights different techniques to build an interesting dance, gives the opportunity to refine and understand the different directions of salsa dance. Also a good bonus is a warm-up, which helps to properly prepare the body, so that more accessible were the movements. It is important that a lot of attention is paid to femininity in the dance, not just technical execution. Thank you!

"I would compare Katya to a lighthouse, and her courses to the light of a beacon that guides you step by step towards the confidence and enjoyment of your dance"
Dinara Rudenko
I would compare Katya to a lighthouse, and her courses to the light of a lighthouse that guides you step by step towards confidence and pleasure in your dancing. I've been in social dancing for almost 10 years, I've been to festivals, congresses, masterclasses, but even with this in mind the course "ABC of Cuban Salsa" was effective, it's useful to go back to the base: to brush up on some moves, to remember simple ones that can become a wand. Lots more information in the chats, from the tutors and personally from Кати❤️.

"The ABCs of Salsa Womanity course put everything in my head, taught me to listen to the music and made friends with my body. I am no longer so scared to dance solo and dance anywhere if I want to"
Elena Sokolovskaya
The course "The ABCs of Salsa Womanity" is my second online course in my life). I came to it immediately after taking the first one - a rumba course with the same Katya. I am a person who for a long time rejected and did not perceive online learning, so if you think the same about yourself, I recommend you to try it here. Katya is not just a professional in her field, she is also a marvellous guide - one who can immerse you in the wonderful world of Cuban music and dance in an incredible way. The ABCs of Salsa Womanity course put everything in my head, taught me how to listen to the music and made my body friends with it. I am no longer so scared to dance solo and dance anywhere if I feel like it. I'm sure this is just the beginning. I will probably take all of Katina's courses gradually with my permanent mentor Tatiana Zakharova)

"I have been on two courses: the rumba and the ABCs of Cuban Salsa, both courses are amazing, informative, intense, very interesting; thanks to them I started to hear rhythms, to incorporate different styles into the dance, and most importantly not to be afraid of solos"
Liana Ayetova
I am immensely happy that I heard about Katerina and her courses from an acquaintance, and most importantly, that I took them and I think I have grown a lot since then. My skills have improved, my perception of music and dance in general has changed. Your courses, Katerina, are not just about dance, movements and musicality, they are so deep that they are about psychology, relationships and life in general. I have been on two courses: on rumba and on "ABC of Cuban salsa", both courses are amazing, informative, rich, very interesting; thanks to them I started to hear rhythms, to insert different styles into the dance, and most importantly not to be afraid of solos. I really like that the courses have structure, gradual immersion in the information, and most importantly the musicality. I get a kick out of the musicality modules. Thank you for creating such training, for making us better and happier. Looking forward to the next courses! ☺️

"The course is very intense, interesting, just like timba itself. I learnt from the heart with pleasure and got a high from the process and new knowledge and skills"
Gulnara Chumarina
A wonderful, bombastic course that works on body and brain, plasticity and musicality. It is cool that you need to film yourself and send videos, from the outside already see yourself and see how you move in reality, on the mirror you dance completely different 😂. I thank Katusha and my mentor Alena for such a clear explanation, presentation of the material. The course is very rich and interesting, just like timba itself. I was engaged from the heart with pleasure and got a high from the process and new knowledge and skills. Prosperity to you and your course "The ABC of Salsa"

"The world of salsa opened up a new side of me."
Evgeniya Antoshkina
The ABCs of Salsa was my first course with Katya. I got there quite by accident, I saw the advertisement, read the course outline and realised that this was what I needed. The course covers all the key moments in the dance (I realised that there is salsa and there is timba). The world of salsa opened up for me from a new side. Katya makes the material incredibly easy, clear and accessible. And I want to understand and go deeper into everything (and in musicality and in different blocks of dance). And this course is just the beginning for me))

"Katya, I've been attending your courses for a while. But it seems to me that they can be repeated endlessly. At each level, the dancer will find something to put in the piggy bank of his development and the formation of a unique style".
Katerina Sanzharevskaya
Katya, your courses are new to me. But it seems to me that they can be repeated endlessly. At each level, the dancer will find for himself that can be put in the piggy bank of his development and the formation of a unique style. THANK YOU for your labour and manner of presentation, friendly atmosphere in the chats and on the course. Development and until new meetings))))

"For a long time I thought that on-line training is not my format, there is no mirror big, and without it is not realistic to study, no one will correct my mistakes, etc. etc. and here came the moment when I decided to try with the course "The ABCs of Cuban Salsa" and after the training puzzle in the head formed🤩😍 appeared understanding, awareness in dancing"
Anna Samulyak
For two years I have been watching Ekaterina and her work, I like it all very much🔥🔥🔥🔥 I thought for a long time that on-line training is not my format, there is no big mirror, and without it is not realistic to study, no one will correct my mistakes, etc. etc. etc. etc. and here came the moment when I decided to try the course "The ABCs of Cuban Salsa" and after the training the puzzle in my head was formed🤩😍 there was an understanding, awareness in dancing. After the course of course I will continue to practice the material learnt, listen to music and look for familiar rhythms. Thank you for everything💐💐💐💐

"If, when I started Salsa I had had the opportunity to take this course, The ABCs of Salsa, my dancing would have been enriched much sooner..."
Oksana Melnikova
This is not my first course with Katya. But like the previous courses, it was very useful for me! 🌹 It helped me to put in order, to structure the material I already knew, and somewhere to fill in some gaps. If, when I started Salsa (understanding what Timba is and how it differs from Salsa came to me only in the first course, which I took with Katya, on Despelota) I had the opportunity to take this course, the ABC of Salsa, my dancing would have been enriched much earlier ... For those who are close to Timba/Salsa, who want to dance beautifully and technically - I highly recommend this course! 💃 It has everything you need to dance Timba/Salsa: clear, accessible, informative and very musical! Katya, very happy to learn from you and your team! Thank you so much 🤗 I wish you (you and your team) more creative ideas, inspiration and luck to realise them! ❤️

"Got hooked right away. Everything matched - both the beautiful visuals and a lot of useful information"
Yulia Fomina
Katya, I am very happy that some day social networks recommended your page to me) I was immediately hooked. Everything matched - both beautiful visuals and a lot of useful information. You are a big smart girl and a hard worker! I went through your "ABC", learnt a lot of new things, and you also "spoke" with words some of the points that unconsciously rolled around in my head. The course is very informative! Thank you a million times!

"For 2 years I have been living with Salsa Womanity. And that's no exaggeration - the project and its courses have become a big and significant part of my life. It's a deep dive into timba and its components that no one else gives!"
Veronika Aranovskaia
I have been living with Salsa Womanity for almost 2 years now. And that's no exaggeration - the project and its courses have become a big and significant part of my life. It is a deep immersion into timba and its components, which no one else gives! Great theoretical base, interesting, time-consuming and rich practical lessons - a unique mix of Katya and beautiful responsive girls. Each Salsa Womanity course is a confirmation of the effectiveness of online learning. And the most important thing is that the practical part and the presentation of the material is done in such a way that you won't hurt your back/leg/head and other things - very carefully, with care for health and with love for each body. I recommend it to everyone and everything written here is definitely not exaggerated.
"When you study something for a long time, with different teachers, with different levels and approaches, you accumulate a pile of fragmentary information, knowledge, skills, and then Katya comes and puts everything in its place. And to this neatly laid out knowledge she also puts some new things that you have never seen before"
Anastasia Lisina
I'll be honest, The ABCs of Cuban Salsa is my second course with Katerina. I failed the first intensive, "The Art of Small Steps" (yes, the New Year holidays are not the best time for me to learn something new, and it seems that the format of a short intensive is not for me). That's why the decision to participate in the course "The ABCs of Cuban Salsa" was already more conscious for me, and the Introductory module of the course somehow immediately set the mood to take a responsible approach to studying the material and doing the assignments. And how glad I am that I gave myself a second chance to receive from Katerina all the valuable information she gives in her courses! When you learn something for a long time, from different teachers, with different levels and approaches, you accumulate a pile of fragmentary information, knowledge, skills, and here comes Katya and puts everything in its place. And to this neatly laid out knowledge she also puts some new, previously unseen by you, things. And all this in a fairly short period of time and without any incredible efforts. I really enjoyed the course so much that I was waiting for the time when I would start the next lesson as some kind of a gift. And also special thanks for the mini-courses on plastic and body care, which were a bonus to the main course. I know the assignments in these courses were not tested, but I did them faithfully and that's what I needed! Now I look at my point A and point B and it seems to me that I even look different, not to mention the added understanding of dance

The theory assignments last 10-20 minutes The practical part takes 20-30 minutes, but the number of repetitions is up to you
All lessons, webinars and live broadcasts remain recorded and can be viewed at your convenience.
Yes, only during the first week of the course you may upgrade your version and start to study with Katerina, if the places are available
All the classes are recorded, you will have your own access to the platform with videos, and you may watch them and train any time that is comfortable for you
Nope, this course is launched in a one time, it lasts 6 weeks; and you have access to the videos during 4-9 months, depending on the plan that you choose
It is possible, but on other courses, not on Cuban salsa ABC.
