While I don't have detailed knowledge about this, I think that contemporary and jazz are most likely to be studied in a university program in Korea. However, you might be able to connect with some people who can give some expert advice if you contact the guys behind this project video. I think you'll find them to be friendly and helpful even if language is a problem.

Hi, just wondering if you ended up being able to take a class at 1Million? I’m thinking of booking and I’m trying to decide which class would be most suited to my skill level.

The two main areas for salsa dancing in Seoul are Hongdae and Gangnam. Most Latin clubs here play a mix of salsa and bachata music. The salsa scene here is predominantly on2, though I’ve seen some people dance on1 at Bulldog in Itaewon. Here’s a list of good salsa clubs you could check out:

Gangnam:

Gangnam Turn (“Gangturn”)

Salsa Club Top

Salsa de Octa

Hongdae:

Hongdae Turn (“Hongturn”)

Club Bonita

Havana

Macondo

Hip Hop Company Stuttgart. Private msg me if need more infos. (Its in Bad Cannstatt)

New York City Dance School | Tanzschule | Stuttgart https://share.google/pzMOuzqdYEgpLpsNC

If you can navigate in Korean, you can try searching for 라틴댄스. Lots of dance clubs (동호회, not nightclub) use Naver Cafe and many also have a Facebook page. There’s probably also a general English language latin dance group on Facebook and those people would know specifics about socials/classes nowadays.

I do swing dance and our clubs in Seoul had to stop for a while, but socials have started up again with limited registration. You might be able to find classes, too, if there’s a hagwon or non-동호회 class somewhere.

Try Facebook. There's a Salsa in Seoul group I found. There's probably bachata too. I don't know how much dancing will be taking place during a pandemic though. In pre-covid times Korea was a huge Hotspot for all kinds of dance, so if you're willing to wait a while, when things get back to normal the scene will hopefully return.

There’s a place in Hongdae I believe below the (fabulous) latin food restaurant, Casa Latina.

I see couple groups on Meetup.

What city?

If you’re talking about traditional Korean dance, it’ll be very location-dependent and whether you have a big Korean community in your city. If you can’t find any, anything ballet/contemporary/lyrical classes will at least train your body and develop your sense of rhythm. If you’re talking about K-pop, just about any dance studio in an Asian-heavy suburb will have kpop classes.

Like, K-Pop or traditional Korean Dances?

If it’s K-Pop, I can teach you online 😊

There is a k pop studio on Inwood in famers branch. Forgot the name,but google it!

uhm also online. they have very good tutorials on youtube. but i would start with hiphop basics.

The (salsa) dance scene in Korea is mostly through "clubs" (동호회). Clubs are slightly different than dance studios:

• Probably less expensive (the teachers usually just teach on the side; not a full-time job)
• More social
• Larger class sizes
• Probably younger age group: 20-40s vs 50+. (In fact, clubs often have maximum age restrictions.)
• Much later hours. I think earliest classes start at 7pm or so, and dancing can go on until past 2 or 3am. (Weekend classes might start earlier.)
• Note: I've taken part in many dance clubs, but only one dance "academy." So I think this is an accurate comparison, but my idea of dance studios in Korea may not be totally accurate.

I think most if not all of these clubs switched to "on 2" several years ago.

The Salsa clubs in Seoul are concentrated in two main areas: Gangnam + Hongdae.

Here is the place I learned salsa several years ago (Hongdae): https://cafe.daum.net/latinboston

My friend is currently active in the Gangnam salsa scene. He thinks it's better in Gangnam. He likes their teaching style better.

I just looked up Jhonatan Dance Company and here are a few more differences:

• Students at Jhonatan seem to be mostly foreigners. Students at clubs will be mostly native Koreans.
• Jhonatan might teach in English, or at least be able to speak English? Classes at clubs will be in Korean. (Although you should be able to get by even if you know little or no Korean.)

download an app called "naver maps" hands down the best english app to use in seoul. and search for salsa. theres one right next to gangnam station. called Salsa Club Everlatin: https://naver.me/xWTnqaqW

app is great because has live map and navigation with real time train and bus stop info and reviews by users of the places it finds.

Hi! I'm Valentina, If you are interested, I teach a free beginners Casino (Cuban salsa) Class every Sunday from 3-5pm near Hapjeong Station. ^.^

We have a blend of Koreans and foreigners taking classes together and its is open to everyone - no experience or partner required!

Feel free to check out our class pictures and videos on IG: Timba.Tribe & Valentina.Timba and let me know if you have any questions!

The Kore Dance studio(s). They opened more locations since I went there years ago. My friend took classes there for years & she introduced me to their donation days. So you can just call and ask them which days you can bring a can of soup to get entrance to the class, most of the time it was Fridays when I went. And look at their IG for which style they'll be doing on those drop-in days. I went during 2 K-Pop classes and a lot of other styles as well.

There are K-pop dance classes every Wednesday at LightUpK (unitek.ent on Instagram has the details). University of Alberta Recreation also offers K-pop dance classes.

Check out unitek.ent on IG, they do Kpop dance classes sometimes in Edmonton. Next Wednesday it looks like they will be doing blackpink, def give them a look

No, none. Move on.

Definitely a pretty niche thing for Mobile. Not saying there isn’t anything like that here, but the people who own Starlite Ballroom may be able to give you some advice on if there are any other dance places in the area for something like that.
