About Somoloco
Somoloco is the world’s #1 salsa immersion company—an unpretentious, joy-charged brand that turns “one day I’ll learn to dance” into “I just owned the floor in Colombia.” From our home base in Medellín we run year-round, 1- to 4-week Salsa Immersions that fuse 15+ hours per week of private coaching, stylish accommodation in the city’s most vibrant district, and nightly outings with a hand-picked crew of local dancers.
Craving more flavors? Our Bachata Immersions are wildly popular, and our Specialty Dance Labs drop throughout the year—Reggaeton, Zouk, Heels, Twerk, and other Latin styles—giving intrepid movers a chance to level-up fast in an intimate, workshop-style setting. Seasonal pop-ups in Barcelona and other rhythm-rich cities let travelers taste the Somoloco magic closer to home.
Since 2018 we’ve welcomed 2000+ guests from 30+ countries, earned a 4.9/5 average rating, and kept half of every tuition dollar in the pockets of Colombian instructors, musicians, and small businesses. Our mission is simple: help people feel alive, connected, and free—one eight-count at a time.
