  Danny Balderas has been in Milwaukee's salsa scene for the last 7 years,
teaching for the last 4. His teaching style is best described as
energetic and informative. When instructing to a group, he takes a
"public school" approach (leave no student behind); assuring everyone
grasps a concept before moving on. All of his weekly classes are for
salsa, but by request he can teach merengue, cha-cha, cumbia, and
bachata.  | Salsa Bachata Merengue at Studio Lounge! "The Best Time in Town EVERY Sunday Night!" Studio Lounge features F-R-E-E Salsa lessons and an open floor EVERY Sunday night.
