About Karen
I Introduce beginners to Salsa on2 for anyone that wants a good time and a great body. It’s a partner dance however you don’t need a partner right away. The special bonds and connections that happen are incredible to experience!!
I teach from the heart and soul. I entertain and try to make people laugh so as to break up any tension they may be experiencing. Basically, my skill is helping you enjoy oneself because it’s not that serious; it’s all the good stuff life has to offer!!
I want everyone who wants to salsa &,”celebrate life doing what they enjoy most. And I help them do just that through dancing.
What I love to do is get people off their phones and their couches and engage with other people face to face....I enjoy watching people (including myself) make new friends or catching up with old ones.
By introducing people to SalsaON2 and other Latin dances in a social setting, we have created a loving community that welcomes everyone!!!
I managed a dance studio from booking the space to marketing the instructors, space and the classes. However one day, our Salsa instructor walked out after having a disagreement with the owner. After everything calmed down, I asked the studio owner what will we do, because class was the next day (too short notice to find a replacement) his answer was we will teach because it’s a beginner class & we’ve taken lessons for over four years. So I agreed, however upon students arriving, the studio owner mentioned he forgot he had something pressing to do....And that I should teach the class alone!!! Well I did, with knees shaking. After the class, all the students started to clap, I didn’t know what they were clapping about and upon seeing my inquisitive face, they all said they were clapping for m!! And from there everything changed and my love of teaching SalsaOn2 was born!!!
I took lessons in the Nyack area for about four years, it was more of a ballroom style.
Then I was introduced to SalsaOn2 in the club scene and my passion came alive, so I began taking private lessons to learn this style and that was for about 2-3 years.

Accessing them as to what they want to accomplish!!
I watch their signs in how they learn. For an example, if a student can learn the basic steps using different scenarios i.e. a left right left or counting 123 567 or being dance with that’s what I’ll do to make them achieve their goals.
Couples, groups, individuals with two left feet or two right feet, scared beyond all recognition and everything else you could imagine.
Overall you should take lessons with different instructors because that’s the way to become the best dancer because you’ll get the benefits of everyone’s abilities. However, upon your start take lessons from someone that makes you feel confident, that makes you laugh, that makes you enjoy what you’re doing because at the end of the day it’s all about having fun!!!
I was at my weekly event, and I found out that a student was traveling from the Bronx to Rockland County to take my class. I was just so honored and appreciative and his kind words of my teaching skills and his feelings of being comfortable with me just made my day!!!
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
You should think through what kind of style you want to learn. There’s so many styles of salsa from every Latin country. You should think about do you want to take classes in groups? Do you want private lessons so that you could build your confidence before dancing in front of people? Do you like parties and taking lessons in that atmosphere. And if you find a teacher who provides all of those scenarios, like myself lol it’s a bonus!!!

Karen is an amazing teacher! She is thorough and takes her time breaking down the steps. She knows how to make a dancer feel confident. I can’t wait to take another class with her!
Karen is a real pro!!! We met to introduce a new specialty event at Marcello’s in Suffern, NY. And together it became an amazing affair to remember. My staff and patrons are still talking about it. She was so easy to work with, always with a big smile. As she taught, she was so patient with the students and quite knowledgeable! Just a well rounded entertainer.....and we can’t wait to bring her back again and again 😃Taking salsa classes with Karen is a great experience. She can easily guide you through the salsa basics and you will be dancing good salsa with a few classes. Great fun
Karen is amazing. I would recommend this class to anyone. It's a great way to learn, meet new people and to lose weight. Is lost 5 lbs in one week...thank you everyone for welcoming me & Thanks to Karen!!!!!😀😀😀😀
Karen was a lot of fun and a great instructor. We absolutely plan to go back and we definitely got better at salsa while having a lot of fun. I would recommend Karen to anyone!

Salsaliciousbaby is a great dance instructor!!! She is fun and energetic. I look forward to class every week.
Salsaliciousbaby is an amazing instructor! She is pleasant and makes everyone feel comfortable.
She is terrific working with beginners and more experience dancers in the same studio. She is fun, positive, specific, supportive, energetic, easy to talk to and can dance both in a man’s position and a woman’s position (never enough men!). She uses great music and really knows her stuff! Best of all, she is a fantastic dancer!! I would take a class from here anywhere, anytime.
I always look forward to Karen’s classes. She does an amazing job waking us through each of
the moves. She focused on each student individually to ensure we have a good understanding of the basics. Her classes are a whole lot of fun too!View more recommendations
