I joined LEC this year and I am absolutely thrilled with my experience!

The instructors have amazing skills and talent, are full of energy, and always give their 100% to every single class. Elysia and Carlos are truly world class dancers, honestly I'm just in awe when I watch them dance.

They also have a remarkable ability to break down complex moves, making it easy for beginners like me to grasp the fundamentals. Their patience and encouragement create a positive learning environment that boosts your confidence and keeps you motivated to improve.

There is a variety of classes, including Salsa On2 / Mambo, Bachata, Tango and ladies technique classes. The classes are kept small and there is a lot of individual attention which is different from other salsa schools.

Whether you're a complete beginner into Latin dance or looking to refine your dancing technique, I wholeheartedly recommend LEC. Kudos to the talented instructors and the entire team for creating such an incredible experience!

Great dance school. Carlos and Elysia are amazing dance teachers. Class sizes are kept small compared to other dance schools and fun!

The top salsa studio in the country, with exceptional instructors like Carlos and Elysia, and a community of incredible dancers.

Vibrant, inclusive and fun place to learn and train in salsa dancing (and other styles)! Definitely the #1 in Melbourne for NY style On2 salsa.

Powered by the inimitable Elysia and propelled to the most dizzying of heights by Argentina's most elegant dancer, Carlos Veron, LEC is a school and community committed to dancing excellence. Thanks to Carlos and Elysia, I've fallen deeply in love with the art and rhythm of salsa whilst being enveloped by a loving, caring and aspirational community.

I recommend LEC if you'd like to learn salsa from two (of my favourite) world champions.

I was welcomed into LEC about 2 years ago and i have loved every minute since! The teachers put so much of their time and energy into creating a beautiful environment and creating strong dancers. This school opened my eyes to a whole new network of social communities and a world of dancing opportunities.

I love this school - The teachers are exceptionally talented and so welcoming to the studio. The classes are kept small so that you get lots of direct support and guidance from the teachers. There are so many different styles of dance and movement offered, I love that my membership allows me to learn how to dance salsa, bachata, urban movement, Latin fusion, practice yoga and do stretch classes all the same studio! The school also hosts regular social events which are always amazing. Oh, and the students who go to this dance school are lovely - so friendly and fun to be around.

La Encantada has become my second home. Not only as a place to dance, learn and improve; but somewhere that provides community and a strong sense of belonging.
This school is already well known for their professionalism and high standards, and increasingly so; the community they have created and a consistently great time.
You're guaranteed to have a great time here, while striving to improve as a dancer. Not only in the studio, too! You'll see LEC instructors and students out on the social dance floors regularly

All the teachers from here are amazing, they are passionate, and patient, would definitely recommended if anyone want to learn.

This is fantastic Salsa school. The teachers put their heart into it and are progressively and methodically developing on2 dancers (along with other related dance styles) ; a rare gem with great vibes.

I have years dance experience in different types of dance styles with different schools and this is so far the best! Enjoyable classes with teachers that make the experience so fun. Also, the best for improving your technique and musicality. Really look forward to my classes during the week here, everyone is lovely and inclusive. Thanks!

Such an amazing dance school with two decent sized studios available for group classes with you being able to book them each for training. Teachers are of high calibre, professional, yet still with lots of fun. Come ready to sweat. Ample parking, good links to the motorway etc. I feel welcome and at home here.dance family

There is nothing like this school. The level of support, comradery and sheer live that is shared here is second to none! This without even looking at the quality of the classes and attention to every single student. Love this place!

Great place, friendly vibes & awesome classes! One of the best places to learn Salsa in Melbourne!

Truely best dancing studio!
