Cal Poly Salsa

We are a stu­dent orga­ni­za­tion asso­ci­ated with Cal­i­for­nia Poly­tech­nic State Uni­ver­sity (Cal Poly) in San Luis Obispo ded­i­cated to spread­ing our love of Salsa danc­ing to San Luis Obispo and the rest of the Cen­tral Coast. While we are asso­ci­ated with Cal Poly, our mem­bers and offi­cers con­sist of non-students in addi­tion to students.

Since our start in 2000, we’ve grown to become the des­ti­na­tion for salsa danc­ing in the San Luis Obispo area. Where we began with 10 to 15 stu­dents a night, we’ve grown to accom­mo­date 60 to 120 stu­dents a night. And where we started with a small dance after the les­son play­ing music from a small CD player, we now host a dance with the full com­ple­ment of DJ equip­ment, light­ing and decor.

Our main goal is to share our pas­sion for salsa danc­ing and music to peo­ple of all back­grounds and ages. We pro­vide high qual­ity social activ­i­ties, instruc­tion, and enter­tain­ment, all while striv­ing to main­tain an envi­ron­ment that is safe and welcoming.
