Justdance was started by Colin Tomlinson who has been involved in salsa since 2001.

"When I first encountered salsa I was hopeless at the steps but I had already been 'bitten by the salsa bug' because of the infectious music and the social environment. There's not much that can stand in the way of persistence so I just kept on going and trying and eventually it just starts to happen. Many, many times I thought of giving up but I wanted to do it and it was still fun. So much fun that I started to find suitable venues and teachers and running my own classes. Now I also teach and train teachers.

"I often get asked if we were the same organisation that ran classes elsewhere so I thought I'd tell where we have run classes (bold venue indicates a current class)
