Casa Salsa ® - Fort Lauderdale, Fort Lauderdale

A professional dancer who has strutted across dance floors from Miami to New York, Christian Espinola founded Casa Salsa with the hope of bringing Latin dance to the masses. That hope has since become reality, as Christian continues to welcome new students to freewheeling Zumba workouts and salsa classes geared toward singles and couples.

But he's not alone in his efforts. The rest of his team brings a wide range of influences to Casa Salsa; Miami native Alfredo Rodriguez draws on his experience as a DJ, while Peruvian native Angie Zumaran draws on the bachata steps he started learning at a young age.
