THE PERSON BEHIND THE PASSION

MEET SHACODA

Great music.
Real connection.
That’s Salsa Soul.

For Shacoda, the magic has always been in bringing people together. Through years of teaching Latin dance and sharing music, he’s helped people discover something that stays with them long after the song ends.

A little more confidence. A new connection. That moment when you stop counting and start feeling.

Whether he’s guiding your next step or behind the decks, the intention is the same: make the room feel alive, and make you feel part of it.

BEFORE YOUR FIRST STEP

A little curious?
Good.

Every dancer starts somewhere.
Here are a few things to know.

Do I need any dance experience?

You don’t have to arrive as a dancer to start becoming one. Tell Shacoda a little about your experience and what you’d like to learn, and he can help you find the right starting point.

Do I need to bring a partner?

Thinking of coming on your own? Get in touch. Partner arrangements can vary by class and workshop, and Shacoda can help you find an option that fits.

Which dance style should I start with?

Start with the music that makes you want to move. Salsa brings lively energy, bachata has a smooth flow, cha cha is playful, and merengue has an inviting, steady rhythm. If you’re unsure, Shacoda can help you choose.

Where and when are classes held?

Salsa Soul is based in Sarasota, Florida. Contact Shacoda for current class locations, workshop dates, availability, and pricing.

Can I book Shacoda to DJ an event?

Yes. Share your date, venue, occasion, and the kind of atmosphere you have in mind. Shacoda will help you explore the music and availability for your event.

THE FIRST STEP IS YOURS.

A new rhythm.
A whole new feeling.

Come for the dance. Stay for the connection.
