Pride Salsa Level 1 On2: Thursday Class in NoMad
Pride Salsa’s Level 1 Salsa On2 session puts rhythm drills and footwork before partner work. The Nov. 12 class is one in a Thursday series at Houghton Hall Arts Community, scheduled weekly through Dec. 24, 2026.
A drop-in class, with a defined level
Pride Salsa describes Level 1 as a fundamentals-based class for people with some NY Style On2 experience or current students who have completed two cycles of its beginner classes. Drop-in means the class is offered as an individual session; it does not mean the lesson is aimed at first-time dancers.
The organizer says each month brings a particular concept to the fundamentals. The Nov. 12 listing does not name that date’s concept, so the clearest guide to fit is the stated experience level.

Vimal and Aubrie teach the Nov. 12 session
The class listing names Vimal Pradeep and Aubrie Salzman. Pride Salsa identifies Vimal as its founder, artistic director and lead instructor, and says he holds international titles in competitive Latin Caribbean dances.
Salzman is an assistant director, instructor and performer. Her profile notes nearly 30 years in concert and partner dance and a world medal in salsa shines; it also identifies her as a dance-event producer and community organizer.

A queer-led class within a broader dance group
Pride Salsa describes the class as for queer people and allies and says straight participants are welcome. The Meetup group behind the listing describes a wider program of partner-dance classes, including Salsa, Bachata and Tango, with community-building through learning and dancing together as one of its aims. Those other styles are part of the group’s broader offer, not this Thursday class’s program.
