Meet Our Salsa Teachers
Helen
Cuban Salsa · Rueda de Casino
For Helen, great salsa happens where musicality, connection and dancing together come naturally.
In 2025 she won the Son Cubano Competition at the Guaguancó Festival together with Yago. Her dancing is characterised by musicality, expression and a fine sense for the connection between two people.
At Midnight Havana, Helen teaches Cuban Salsa and Rueda de Casino. Her classes are not only about learning figures, but about hearing the music more consciously, reacting to each other and developing a natural feeling for Cuban salsa.
Motto: Hear the music. Feel the connection. Dance together.
Yago
Cuban Salsa · Rueda de Casino
Yago combines salsa with a strong sense of music, movement and dynamics on the dance floor.
In 2025 he won the Son Cubano Competition at the Guaguancó Festival together with Helen. His dancing is musical, clear and strongly influenced by Cuban movement culture.
At Midnight Havana, Yago teaches Cuban Salsa and Rueda de Casino. For him it goes beyond figures and step patterns: understanding rhythm, moving naturally to the music and really dancing with each other.
Motto: Understand the music. Feel the movement. Dance together.
Sassan
Rueda de Casino
Sassan lives and breathes Rueda de Casino and has spent many years exploring how versatile, creative and playful it can be.
As part of the SalsaNor Rueda Family he teaches regularly at the international SalsaNor Rueda Congress, bringing his experience to workshops for different levels.
At Midnight Havana, Sassan stands for solid Rueda technique, creative structures and the particular energy that appears when individual couples become one Rueda. Expect to experiment, laugh and occasionally give your brain a workout.
Motto: Discover, play and develop Rueda together.
