Alex ROJAS

Instructor

ETOWN SALSA

Alejandro Rojas started teaching in 2001 but he always felt he had a knack for teaching even before this. He grew up dancing and performing in Chilean folklore for many years between the ages of 10-14. At the age of 18 , Alejandro began frequenting the Latin nightclubs and it was here where he found his passion. Watching other dancers, he quickly picked up the steps of the most seasoned dancers in the club. Wanting to further his knowledge of the Latin dances, he joined dance teams and after travelling to Los Angeles to the largest Salsa convention in the world at the time, he was humbled to the plethora of amazing dancers present at the convention. Since that experience, Alejandro knew that Salsa would become a huge phenomenon around the world so he decided to start teaching his newly found artform. That was 2001 and today Alejandro has opened up his first Latin dance studio in Edmonton with amazing reception and results!
