Hi 👋 I'm Juan, Cali local, born and raised here. Tourism is: something I love to do, something I am good at, and something I can make a job out of. That's why I have found a vocation in it. My tours keep growing, expanding, innovating, always a project-under-construction. They're never finished as I keep improving them with the experience every traveller brings. I speak superb english, native spanish, fluent portuguese, and some french. Thanks for considering me to show you my hometown. Welcome to Cali!

Tour description

Come join my proposal for a fun and interactive way of learning Spanish. (BEGGINERS BASIC EDITION)

I’ll keep it simple and basic and we will advance based on your capabilities. We will use Salsa as an interactive and practical tool for Spanish learning!


**This is a class focused on language learning, not dancing. We might listen to music and do some salsa steps on the side**

The class will be divided into 2 sections:

SECTION 1: BASIC LANGUAGE LEARNING

We will sit down, paper in hand, and review vocabulary and grammar like:

  • Body parts: body, legs, foot, feet, arm, hand, head, torso, chest, mouth, smile, laugh, etc.
  • Singular and plural
  • Verbs conjugation: dance, stop, start, continue, smile
  • Salsa terms: swing, tumbao, Sabor
  • Another general vocabulary


SECTION 2: SPANISH APPLIED TO SALSA

We will use salsa cover songs of internationally famous hits and artists as a practical way of using Spanish. We will review the lyrics in English, in Spanish, and then the translation of the Spanish version and see how they coincide (or not...)

As a bonus for reading so far, here are the songs we will be using for section 2. You can look them up and impress your friends (and yourself):


  • No no no by Eve - No no no by Boogaloo Assassins
  • Part Time Lover by Stevie Wonder - Amor a Medio Tiempo by Bobby Valentín
  • Careless Whisper by George Michael - Rumores by Orquesta la Palabra


If you like learning, fun, and languages… this is for you! And for you to have your best spanish class ever… that is my goal.

** Note:

  • Please bring a pen or pencil if possible, and a notebook or something flat to use as writing support.
  • I will bring printed material, but you can check it out digitally here:

Free tours do not have a set price, instead, each person gives the guru at the end of the tour the amount that he or she considers appropriate (these usually range from €10 to $50 depending on satisfaction with the tour).

At first Juan is a lovely and kind person. At the beginning he asks for your spanish level so the class fits to everyone's skills. He also asks if someone would rather practise more spanish or more salsa, otherwise he does a 50/50 of both. It ways very personal because we were only two persons and we got all our questions answered. He is very open for feedback as well. Sooo 10/10 would recommend! A good start for spanish.
