Enrique Perez & his partner Rob Carroll run an excellent evening of salsa at Bar So in Bournemouth every Wednesday. There are bachata workshops from 7:30pm to 8:30pm followed by Cuban salsa workshops from 8:45pm until strictly 10pm – a new year resolution for 2020. All levels are catered for with the one and only Moe Flex usually providing the advanced level for bachata & salsa. See the facebook page Salsa Dorset for more information.
The workshops are followed by social dancing until 1am with a good selection of salsa & bachata music by DJs Moe and Enrique with the occasional kizomba. Although the salsa lessons are Cuban there are plenty of ladies attending who can follow cross body though most of the men do lead Cuban style!
As an proponent of Puerto Rican Salsa Romantica it’s not a problem for me to vary what I lead according to the preferences of the lady. (Puerto Rican means the best of cross body & cubana and Salsa Romantica means smooth & sensual.)
Timetable
- 7:30pm Bachata workshops for various levels
- 8.45pm Cuban Salsa classes for all levels in 5 Rooms
- 10pm Salsa Social with DJs Moe and Enrique which is when I arrive!
- 1am Close
Venue: Bar So, Exeter Rd, Bournemouth BH2 5AG
Winter Gardens Car Park 1 is the best place to park only 50 yards from the venue! Drive down the hill (Exeter Road), turn first left at The Lost Paradise, drive past the Truth Nightclub and turn left into Car Park 2 then left again into Car Park 2 to be as close as possible to the venue.

Salsa at Bar So Bournemouth with Salsa Dorset, Enrique & Moe
The social dancing began at 10:25 and I loved the format which was LD:6S:2B:2K – 4S:LD:2B:2K – 4S:2B:2K up to 00:30. I had a fabulous time dancing almost continuously until then when I went home a happy man after 20 good dances including 13/14 salsas, 6/6 bachatas and 1/6 kizombas with Katy, Petya, Terez, Susanne, Judith, Talula, Lillianna, Sasha, Nicole, Gemma, Alex, Clare & Sharon! All the beginners I danced with said they had had fun dancing with me which is of course is what it’s all about! That included the last beginner I danced with who did so at her boyfriend’s suggestion and they were both pleased with the result. ❤️❤️
