    Not beginner friendly,...

    Not beginner friendly, wasn’t in English. Went over each move for only about a minute or two and moved on, added hands, added partners, it was all too quick and I was trying to translate the instructions but couldn’t really understand with how quick they were going. The others in my class seemed to be enjoying it but I left early, it just felt like a humiliation ritual to be honest.

    Response from the operator: Hello, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We are truly sorry to hear that you left the class feeling frustrated and uncomfortable. Our beginner classes are intended to be welcoming and accessible, regardless of previous dance experience, so it is disappointing to learn that the pace felt too fast and that the language barrier made it difficult for you to follow along. We understand how discouraging that can be, especially when trying something new. We appreciate your honest feedback, as it helps us identify areas where we can improve communication and ensure that all guests, especially beginners and international visitors, feel included and comfortable. We are going to remember our teachers to teach totally in english the classes for begginers cause we intend to create an international community with locals at ISM. Thank you again for bringing this to our attention, and we wish you all the best in your future dance journey. Kind regards, Nelly ISM Team

    Phenomenal class!

    Super fun class!! Went with my partner but they do a great job of rotating partners to keep everyone learning! You could come solo and have a blast as well!

    Salsa newbie

    Was fun and challenging. We started 30min late due to prior class running long. Was entertaining to watch the more advanced dancers learn and practice before us. Studio is warm, bring water and dress light

    Two left feet? No problem

    Enthusiastic and encouraging teacher. We had a great time and are thinking about going back for another lesson before we leave. LGBTQ friendly.

    Fun, supportive...

    Fun, supportive environment, and attentive instructors. It was helpful to understand some Spanish to be able to follow along, but probably would’ve been fine either way. I would definitely do this again!

    Zero to salsa for beginners: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Mexico City.

    How much does Zero to salsa for beginners cost?

    +

    Prices start at $17 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Mexico City usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Zero to salsa for beginners take?

    +

    Plan for about 1 hour from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Mexico City is not rushed.

    Is Zero to salsa for beginners worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 52 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.9/5 across 22 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Mexico City, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Zero to salsa for beginners?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Zero to salsa for beginners suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Zero to salsa for beginners?

    +

    Around 8 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Mexico City can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Mexico City and add a light layer if any part of the 1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Zero to salsa for beginners start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Mexico City within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Mexico City?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Mexico City experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Teotihuacan 3 Pyramids Tour + Hotel Pick Up + Lunch at La Gruta, Historic Center Essentials: Mexico City Downtown Walking Tour, PREMIUM Frida Kahlo Museum and Xochimilco (Small Groups). The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Mexico City?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Mexico City?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Zero to salsa for beginners?

    +

    Included: All Fees and Taxes. Not included: Private transportation; Bottled water; and Alcoholic beverages. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Zero to salsa for beginners?

    +

    Please come to the reception 3th floor which is going upstairs from the main building where you enter in Cda. de Hamburgo 4, Juárez, 2 blocks away from Angel de la Independencia. The main door might be closed. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Zero to salsa for beginners offered in?

    +

    It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Zero to salsa for beginners?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    What happens to Zero to salsa for beginners if the weather is bad?

    +

    It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Mexico City. Standard cancellation terms apply: free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start.
