"I have taken a lot of Salsa classes in NYC as well as in many cities across
the US.  Raul is one the only dance instructor I have encountered who consistently includes teaching body movements based in the African roots of
the dance with the more traditional salsa choreography. You learn  to understand  the feel of the dance and rhythms --which is truly the heart
and soul of the dance. In addition to preparing a class syllabus, he
prepares for his classes and provides feedback to his students - particularly
unusual in this type of dance class. The ambiance of his class is joyful -
not competitive -- you can still have fun while becoming a serious student."

“Very enthusiastic and able to share their love and knowledge of Salsa”

“Takes ‘Salsa’ beyond Ballroom.  Make learning fun.”

"The Street Salsa class is great. I thought I had two left feet but after taking a class with Raul, I could actually hold my own. Raul teaches you all the subtle tricks that you might not learn in a larger class that has 50 or more students."

"I prefer the smaller class size and individual attention that the Strictly Street Salsa have. You learn a lot more and have cleaner steps, while still being able to dance with different partners. Great job guys!"

“ Sense of humor; encouraging; joy of teaching/dancing.”

" Teaching is definitely this man's calling".                                                   Angel Rios

“I took the opportunity to exchange Argentine Tango classes for Salsa classes with Raul Orlando E., given that I was in Houston conducting Argentine Tango workshop.  I am very happy with all that I learned with him, since I was able to improve what I had learned in Harlem (New York).  Raul is an excellent pedagogue and exquisite dancer with whom is very easy to understand the fundamentals of Salsa.”

“Raul is the best dance teacher I ever had.  He’s the bomb!  "Passionate, knowledgeable of various types of music and dance.  Perfectionist, dependable and flexible."
