About Ritmo Caliente Dance Academy

Ritmo Caliente Dance Academy brings the energy of Latin social dancing to Leederville, running classes upstairs at the Leederville Hotel. Led by Liliana, described as one of Western Australia's finest salsa performers and a leading salsa and bachata instructor, the academy has built a loyal community of dancers who return term after term for the warm, welcoming atmosphere.

Classes are structured into six-week courses across three Latin styles, each offered at multiple levels so you can join as a complete beginner or keep progressing as your skills grow. Salsa, bachata and kizomba run on rotating times through the evening, with a dedicated rooftop terrace for kizomba adding to the venue's character. Private lessons are also a popular option for dancers who want focused one-on-one coaching.

Students speak glowingly of Liliana and her team, praising the friendly instructors, the supportive group of fellow dancers, and how much they learn in a short time. Beyond the structured courses, Tuesday night social parties let you put your moves into practice. For anyone in Perth wanting to learn to dance in a fun, judgment-free environment, Ritmo Caliente is a vibrant home for Latin rhythm.
