The evening’s central choice is whether to stop after the 6:30 p.m. Salsa class or stay for a second lesson: Bachata basics, offered afterward for an additional $10.
Two classes, with Salsa first
NYC CONNECTS lists Salsa for beginners at 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 11. After that class, attendees can stay for an optional introduction to Bachata basics. The listing gives no separate start time for Bachata, so the sequence is clear but the timing of the second lesson is not.

A social first step into a longer course
The event is presented as a chance for absolute beginners—especially people new to New York—to learn and meet one another. The listing encourages attendees to socialize, but does not describe a separate mixer or a particular format for meeting people.
Nov. 11 is identified as the first class in a three-month progressive course. No subsequent dates or course outline are provided, so the listing confirms this evening’s plan without establishing when or what the next lessons will cover.
