We've spent thousands on therapists, and in one day, you got to the core of our issues. It all finally made 'sense'.
I left your bootcamp a new woman, and my husband, a 'relieved' man.
We can't thank you enough." - Anonymous Bootcamp Student
of the "Salsa Bootcamp" Concept
The Year 1997: I started the Salsa Bootcamp concept with individual beginner guys in Los Angeles, California. I got the idea when I was dating a guy named Russel. He would get to the studio, and I would train him for 3-4 hours. We would then go to dinner together, and I would dance with him ALL NIGHT LONG repeating moves over and over again that night until... he got it, and was "spent" by 3am. He said, "Edie, This is like a Salsa Bootcamp!" We broke up, but I hung on to the idea... I gave Salsa Bootcamps to men for about two years after that.
Once I started traveling however, I no longer had the time for individual one-on-one Bootcamps, much less teaching group classes at home anymore. The ladies were missing my styling classes back home as well. My home classes were shrinking because I was always gone! Frustrated, I was listening to an Anthony Robbins tape while on an airplane in 2003. Tony spoke of "magnification techniques". I then decided to hold the World's First Ladies Styling Bootcamp in 2003. It lasted eight hours long, and was a complete success! The guys were free all day, and the girls finally got a chance to get some much-needed attention of their own.
After that, I was asked to do Beginner Bootcamps, and now Musicality Bootcamps. Now I am invited to teach Salsa Bootcamps all over the world. I Teach "Bootcamps" and "Workshops" for Men and Women
Bootcamps are typically between Seven to Eight-Hours:
And NOW...

and The Schedule...
Saturday Beginner's Day: Men and Women: YOU WILL SWEAT!! Remember there will be all types of people there, and respectable comfortable clothing is highly recommended. (may change, depending on Bootcamp Type). Comfortable sweats, jeans, and comfortable sneakers, dance sneakers, or something you can turn and spin with on a wooden dance floor. Please wear dance sneakers or regular sneakers - as long as they will not "stick" to a wooden gym or dance floor when you turn or spin in a circle. If the bottoms of your sneakers are are smooth and can "slide" on a smooth floor, that type of shoe bottom is PERFECT. Sweats are great.
YOU WILL SWEAT!! Remember there will be all types of people there, and respectable clothing is highly recommended. (may change, depending on Bootcamp Type).
