Founded fifteen years ago, and having taken up residence on King’s Street Hammersmith for the last ten, Club Azucar has a strong reputation as one of West London’s leading public dance schools. It has marked itself out from this crowded field with a clear mission statement: to use dance to promote fitness, positivity and sociability. They offer a range of courses for the stiff beginner, right the way up to the limber semi-professional, across latin dance styles, and zumba. Including Zumba moves for core fitness, and most recently, a couples Salsa course.
Club Azucar joined Obby in 2019, to expand the reach of their classes and attract a pan-London audience after thirteen years of teaching success in west London. Ginu and Patricia Nunez are dancers themselves, and as "native and organic instructors" have refined a teaching technique which is as approachable for the initiate as it is compelling for the more professional dancer. There really is something for everyone at Club Azucar.
Husband and wife dancing team Ginu and Patricia keep up a busy schedule of classes and courses. The Zumba exercise classes are an especially popular feature. They also travel around to teach Salsa privately, and have long dreamed of opening their own nightclub as a venue to combine sophisticated dancing with the passionate social atmosphere of an authentic latin club.
Club Azucar's classes are extremely popular, and one look at their reviews makes it clear why! The multiple testimontials from students - both past and present - highlight the skill and warmth offered by Ginu and Patricia:

Their new Wednesday night couples Salsa course is a thrilling new opportunity for couples to learn to dance together - and grow together as a partnership through this passionate and compelling Cuban dance style. With this course, Ginu and Patricia are expanding their schedule of sought after salsa classes. Offering couples 10 weeks of guided development through walking and leading techniques, footwork, and the structures of the Cuban Salsa style.
So, if your partner & you have been wanting to get your dancing shoes on, make sure youn don't miss a beat and book now!
