Group classes are fun but you feel like you need more focus on YOUR specific dance challenges

We’ve got you! Our private dance lessons will help you break through your dance barriers and help you to reach your potential!

Work with a qualified dancer from Mayambo who can help you take your dancing to another level whether you’re a beginner or more experienced dancer.

If your girlfriend, boyfriend, best friend or good friend want to join you, the price is exactly the same. Enjoy working on your own skills or learning a new skill with a partner!

You can rest easy knowing first hand that safety is taken very seriously. Mask wearing is a must! With a teacher and either one or two students and plenty of hand sanitizer, we can practice safely and have a great time.

Take your lessons at a time that that works for YOUR schedule. Unlike group classes, private lessons can be done during the day or on the weekends!

Hear From Some Of Our Amazing Students

Del once told me that I would give up on me before he gave up on me, and he was right! Del is so patient. I’m not the quickest learner or the best dancer, but he’s very attuned to the strengths and weaknesses of his students…he doesn’t rush his students. Because of that, my skills have improved. He’s a very observant instructor. He’s an awesome dancer. And he’s very passionate about Salsa/Mambo. If you’re intimidated by the thought of privates, as I was, don’t be. He puts his students at ease. Every class is energy-filled and fun!

I’ve taken classes at the MOST popular places in the city and NO ONE, I mean NO ONE stacks up the the knowledge and understanding of how the body works and moves like Del! This is the best kept secret in the city ( well, not anymore because I just told you!

There are a lot of great dance teachers in Chicago, but for salsa, Del is the best. Hands down. Whether you are a lead or a follow, he can quickly pinpoint what is holding you back and set you on a path to improve. His lessons are always a blast and the studio community he has engendered is full of supportive, fun, and talented people. Whether you are just starting out or looking to raise your salsa game, Del is your best option.
