Though most of its students have yet to twirl towards their computers to write online reviews, one Yelper gives Salsa y Control a perfect five stars:

• [Johnny Giraldo] is really easy to learn from and he was endlessly patient and encouraging. He really taught me to find the rhythm in salsa music which was the first music that was ever difficult for me. – Ashley J.
