Discover Latin Dance Classes in Puerto de La Cruz: An Authentic Touch to Your Tenerife Holiday
If you’re searching for a lively, authentic experience to spice up your Tenerife trip, the Latin dance classes in Puerto de La Cruz might just be what you need. Although I haven’t personally taken the class, reviews and detailed descriptions point to a well-organized, fun, and meaningful activity that offers more than just steps — it delivers a taste of local culture and a memorable holiday highlight.
What we love about these classes is their focus on personalized instruction from professional teachers, the inclusion of a course completion certificate that you can keep as a souvenir, and the fact that the whole experience is designed to be friendly and welcoming to all levels. Plus, the fact that it’s a brief, one-hour session makes it an easy addition to your sightseeing plans.
One consideration? Since it’s a private class, timing and availability can vary, so it’s best to check ahead and reserve in advance. Also, it’s suitable for those who enjoy a relaxed, intimate atmosphere rather than large group settings. This experience suits travelers who want an authentic, cultural activity, meet new friends, or just have fun trying something new and lively.

An In-Depth Look at the Latin Dance Experience in Puerto de La Cruz
Location and Meeting Point: Easy Access at a Beachside Hotel
The classes are conveniently located at the Alua Soul Orotava Valley hotel. When you arrive, head to the 5th floor gym area, where your instructor will meet you. The location itself adds a touch of sophistication and relaxes you before the lesson begins, setting the scene for a lively yet comfortable dance session.
This meeting point is accessible and comfortable, making it easy for travelers staying in Puerto de La Cruz to fit this activity into their day. The activity ends back at the same spot, making logistics straightforward and stress-free — perfect for those on a busy sightseeing schedule.
Duration and Schedule: Short, Sweet, and Flexible
The class lasts one hour, which is just enough time to learn some fundamental Latin steps without feeling rushed. The start times are flexible but depend on availability, so it’s wise to check ahead. The brief duration means you can easily slot this activity into a morning or afternoon plan, leaving plenty of time to explore other parts of Tenerife.

Once you arrive, you’ll receive a warm welcome along with a small gift, like chocolates and water. The instructor will introduce the session and ask what you’d like to focus on, making the experience tailored to your interests and skill level.
During the lesson, you’ll learn your best steps to share with friends or your partner, which you’ll practice with your instructor and possibly a partner if you bring one along. The emphasis is on good vibes and enjoyment, rather than perfection. As one reviewer put it, “We had a blast,” and that’s exactly the tone you can expect.
The Learning Experience: Professional Teaching with a Personal Touch
The classes are conducted in multiple languages — Spanish, Italian, and English — ensuring clear communication. The instructors are described as professional and friendly, making the lesson approachable for absolute beginners or those with some dance experience.
Participants will walk away with a video of their learned steps, which allows you to practice later or show off your new moves back home. The course also concludes with a certificate, a small but meaningful souvenir of your efforts and the chance to showcase your new skills.
What’s Included: Value-Filled Experience
The package includes:
- Dance class with professional teachers
- Water and chocolates to keep you energized
- Course completion certificate
- Video recording of your steps to review later
This combination offers quite a good value for the price, especially considering the personalized attention and the tangible mementos.
What to Bring and Wear
Comfort is key for dancing, so wear comfortable shoes and clothes. Bring a towel if you’d like to freshen up afterward, and avoid sandals or flip-flops for safety and convenience. Hats and alcohol are not permitted, in line with safety and respectful conduct.
Group Size and Language: Private and Personal
Since this is a private group, you’ll have the instructor’s full attention, making it a more intimate and tailored experience. The classes are conducted in Spanish, Italian, or English, accommodating international visitors.
Cancellation and Booking Flexibility
If your plans change, the activity offers free cancellation up to 24 hours in advance, which adds peace of mind. You can reserve now and pay later, allowing for flexibility if your itinerary shifts.
Why This Experience Stands Out
The standout feature of these Latin dance classes is their focus on quality and genuine enjoyment. Reviewers have highlighted the excellent value for money and the friendly atmosphere, with many saying they felt like part of a family. Silvia, the teacher mentioned in reviews, is praised for her approachable style, making even newcomers feel comfortable.
The class not only teaches basic steps but also provides a meaningful cultural connection — understanding a bit of Latin rhythm and dance style enhances your overall Tenerife experience. It’s a fun way to break the ice with local culture and maybe even discover a new hobby.
Who Will Enjoy This Activity?
This experience is ideal for travelers looking for a cultural activity that’s active but not physically demanding. It suits those open to trying something new, whether you’re a complete beginner or have some dance experience. If you’re traveling solo, with a partner, or in a small group, you’ll find the private class format very accommodating.
It’s especially good if you want a short yet memorable activity that combines learning, fun, and a souvenir. If you’re staying near Puerto de La Cruz and want to indulge in some local flavor, these dance classes are a fantastic choice.
Final Thoughts: Authentic, Fun, and Value-Driven
This Latin dance class experience offers more than just steps — it’s a chance to connect with local culture in a lively, engaging way. The professional instruction, warm environment, and included perks like the certificate and video make it a well-rounded package for anyone wanting to add a splash of rhythm to their holiday.
While it’s brief, the impact can be lasting — you’ll leave with new skills, a smile, and perhaps a new hobby to practice back home. It’s a wonderful activity for those who love to learn, laugh, and dance their way through Tenerife.
