You’ve lived in Miami for how many years and you still can’t dance salsa? There’s no need to feel like a dance floor loser; Salsa Mia will make it easy for you to learn. Every Friday night at 8:00 the muy caliente event organizers host group classes at Yuca Lounge. You don’t need a partner, and you certainly don’t need to know anything about dancing; just show up and they’ll teach you how to move.

You’ll start with the basic steps, one foot forward then the other back, almost easier than walking. Soon you’ll be swaying like a native Cuban, twirling in rhythm with everyone in the rueda group or inching closer to your favorite salsero. Ay papi. After the lesson is over you can carry on Latin dancing at the lounge until 2:30 a.m.
Fridays, Sundays, 8 p.m., 2007
