About

Ritmo Latino Coimbra is an Afro-Latin dance school in Coimbra teaching salsa cubana, salsa cross body, bachata, kizomba, semba, son cubano, cha-cha-cha and merengue. Its regular 2026-27 programme runs from September to June, with 90-minute evening classes at Clube União de Coimbra / Pavilhão União de Coimbra near Alma Shopping. The timetable is organised by level: Mondays for Iniciados 1, Tuesdays for Intermédios, Wednesdays for beginner-level Iniciados 0, and Thursdays for Avançados plus the choreographic studio, usually around 21:30-23:00. Alongside weekly classes, Ritmo Latino offers private lessons, workshops and short courses, with programmes available for individuals, couples and groups. The school also takes part in monthly Afro-Latin social sessions, typically on the first Saturday of the month at Mercado Municipal D. Pedro V in Coimbra, combining dinner, an open class, social dancing and animations. For dancers in Coimbra, it is a practical place to learn or return to salsa, bachata and kizomba with clear level pathways, regular social practice and local community events.
