Groups

There are loads of groups that love to call WAC their home, from churches to fencing.

Please note groups are run separately from WAC. For more information please contact the group co-ordinator using the details below.

Salsateca Dance School

Tuesdays 6.30pm to 8:30pm
£10 guest session fee

Learn Salsa, have fun and meet new friends!

Every Tuesday you can join our 2 hour Beginner Salsa lesson, from 6:30pm to 8:30pm

You don’t need previous experience or come with a dance partner. In fact, many people come by themselves. We rotate dance partners several times during the lesson, so you’ll get to practice with other people. If you come with your own partner and you’d rather stay together during the whole lesson, that’s fine too. Please inform the teacher and we’ll be happy to accommodate you.

Part of the class is solo dance, and part of the class is partner work. So you’ll get a chance to practice your solo dance skills too.

We don’t have a social after these lessons. So if you’re looking for a salsa club in London, we have social dancing most days at our other locations. Please check the other events on this page.

Cost: £15 per person, book online or pay cash at the door.

Drum Healing

Sundays 1-3pm
Members £3, non-members £6

Though we have few spares, please bring a drum or a shaker

In Afrikan culture, drums are seen as connectors to the ancestors. Broken drums are therefore symbolic of a broken connection. In repairing drums we are physically repairing our relationship with those who came before us and to whom we owe our existence. This is at the heart of Ukombozii Ancestral Drums.

Brother Omowale – THE DRUM HEALER – provides a range of services, both directly and via UKOMBOZII ANCESTRAL DRUMS, which he coordinates as a sub-group of the PASCF.
