Clear instruction
Details are broken down so dancers understand what to do and why it works.
Our studio
Amaya Dance combines detailed instruction with music, humor and a social community that makes dancers want to keep coming back.
The Amaya way
Founder Salomon Amaya has built a Houston dance community around excellent teaching, personal growth and the simple joy of moving to music together.
His classes combine captivating footwork, upper-body movement, technique, rhythm and partner connection with the warmth and humor that help students relax and learn.
Beyond weekly lessons, Amaya Dance creates pathways into private coaching, performance teams, workshops and social events—giving every dancer a way to keep progressing.
