Yamativo was formed by Instructors/Dancers/Performer/Choreographers AJ, Luna & Ebru to establish professional SALSA dancers with a strong foundation/technique. Something that has never existed in Qatar prior and can represent it well and showcase high levels of showmanship and integrity in dance on and off the dance floor).
Derived from the Spanish word Llamativo, meaning anything that is Stunning, Striking, and Eye-Catchy, that is exactly what Yamativo is doing through its dancers & under the direction/supervision of Instructors/Dancers/Performers/Choreographers AJ, Luna & Ebru. Yamativo is a Purely Latin Dance Group based in Qatar which focuses on Salsa, among other Latin Dances. In less than a year, it became the leading & fastest growing community in Qatar.
OUR LATIN DANCE SCHOOL OFFERS A LARGE VARIETY OF DANCE CLASSES FOR ALL SKILL LEVELS.
SALSA Classes for Intermediate Level Improvers
At Improver level we build upon the moves and techniques that are learnt in either Technique level or our Beginners’ courses.
We use and adapt the moves you know, whilst adding in new ones as well, to build interesting moves and turn patterns that can used whilst dancing. Our emphasis is strongly on teaching moves that are leadable and followable so that you are able to get out onto the dance floor and dance them with fellow Salseros & Salseras.
SALSA Classes for Advanced Level Additional Complex Movements
At Advanced level the moves taught require a very high level of leading & following skill – including the ability to lead/follow quick direction changes, multiple spins, subtle direction changes, and the ability to continue moving/dancing complex movements whilst leading/following additional complex movements.
Interesting and new ideas are added all of the time and you need to have a very good technical understanding of the dance as well as a high level of practical ability. You are also expected to have a good understanding of both leading & following, and some musical knowledge is essential as you will be taught to express yourself even more ‘to the music’.

After mastering these basics, she seeks out a “Ladies’ Styling” class, where she learns how to use her arms and body movement to make the same steps look more feminine, That is styling.
