Dance. Language. Culture.
Independent Dance CDMX is, first and foremost, a social dance studio. Our Language & Culture programs build on that foundation, offering structured Spanish and English classes that help you connect more deeply with Mexico City and our international community.
Spanish for Visitors & Expats
If you're visiting from abroad or living in Mexico City as an expat, our Spanish programs help you go beyond the tourist experience. Learn useful language for daily life, then practice it naturally in our social dance community.
- Small-group Spanish classes (beginner to conversational)
- Real-life phrases for cafés, markets, and social outings
- Optional "Spanish through dance" sessions
Combine your Spanish learning with Salsa, Bachata, Kizomba and more by joining our regular dance classes and events.
English Through Dance for Locals
For local dancers in CDMX, our English programs offer a relaxed, movement-based way to practice. Learn everyday English while enjoying the music, rhythm, and connection of social dance.
- Classes taught in English with patient, clear guidance
- Simple conversation practice before and after class
- Opportunities to interact with international students and expats
Pair your English practice with regular group classes in Salsa, Bachata, Kizomba, Cumbia, Tango and more on our Classes page.
