About this studio
Salsason is a Marseille-based association offering salsa classes, Latin dance workshops, regular social evenings, DJ-hosted events, and curated trips to Cuba. The studio frames salsa not just as dance but as a gateway to Cuban culture—a fusion of African rhythms with classical European traditions brought by colonial settlers, blended across three centuries into multiple dance and musical forms.
The organisation runs regular classes and stages in salsa, with social events woven into their calendar. They host DJ nights and live music events where dancers can perform to "rythmes endiablés" (wild rhythms). Salsason also organises festivals, congresses and concerts as part of their community programming.
Beyond weekly classes, Salsason arranges a Cuba séjour (residential trip), offering members the chance to experience salsa culture at its source. The studio emphasises community and connection—each class, evening or gathering is framed as an opportunity for new friendships and cultural exchange among salsa dancers from Marseille and beyond.
The association's contact team includes Yanet, Sandrine, and Frédéric, and they welcome both locals and visitors to join. Classes resume on 17 September 2025.
