Juan Calderon has just recently finished some of his private lessons packages so he now has some additional availability...read why private lessons are the best and why so many people travel to New Jersey from as far as Italy, China and Portugal to take private lessons with Juan. Most people sign up for packages so make sure you act quickly as Juan's available times will quickly book up.

If you have ever wondered about the benefits of private lessons with Juan, or whether it's really "worth it", read below....

- Juan's Instructional DVDs are the top sellers on Amazon & even major retail stores such as Target, Tower Records, Barnes & Nobles, Blockbuster Videos, etc. as a result of his clear and easy to follow teaching system.

- Juan's system of teaching is the fastest and easiest way to learn Salsa, and in a private you have the luxury to ask him about anything; the lesson is tailored to YOUR needs! Private lessons can also go as fast-paced or as slow-paced as you like, making it a truly individual lesson to help you reach your goals at your pace whether you like to go much faster or much slower than a group class. The class is tailored to what you want and need.

- Juan is world-renowned for being one of the world's best salsa instructors, and he can pinpoint your areas for improvement and correct these areas quickly so you will see improvement in your dancing even after just one lesson! Even after just a few minutes!

- You can choose to tell him what you feel your weaknesses are and what you need to work on or you can have him find out and "diagnose" you. Whether it is spinning, leading/following, timing, footwork, balance, sensitivity, adjusting to different partners, styling, or shines - whatever it is - Juan has the cure.

- Juan doesn't just teach moves. Juan teaches concepts and exercises to improve on anything that you want. His system has led to Cultural Explosion becoming the largest Salsa School in the tri-state area. On a Thursday night you can often find over 100 students taking classes with Cultural Explosion. No other schools even come close to those numbers.

- Juan travels around the world to teach his system of Salsa. Some examples are - Italy, England, France, Spain, Canada, Latin America and all around the US - so others only get to see him once a year or once in a lifetime....take advantage and learn from him since he is right here in NJ!

- People travel to NJ to take private lessons with Juan from all over the world.  Find out why people are willing to spend thousands of dollars on airfares, hotel accommodations & private lessons by taking one yourself.  Just last year Juan had visitors from Italy, Canada, Portugal, China, Bermuda, and from several regions of the US. So whether you live in New Jersey or Australia what are you waiting for...why not see for yourself why all these people travel for miles and spend so much to learn from him?

- Locally, Juan teaches in three states every week - NY, NJ & PA. He is a guest instuctor in PA's top Salsa dance studio (La Luna), and also a staff member at one of New York's top classical dance academies (The Dance Theatre of Harlem). In NJ Juan has also been a guest instructor at several of the top dance studios of both competitive and social dancing such as Sandra Fortuna's Universal Dance Center, The Nash Dance Center & Brandis Dance Theatre to name a few.  Juan also of course runs his own dance school - Cultural Explosion.

- Juan is currently available in his home state of NJ not only for group classes but also private lessons...so take advantage of his new openings before they fill up. People often sign up for packages of privates and schedule standing appointments once a week, therefore his availability quickly becomes scarce...sign up today!
