Salsa Near Lancaster Gate
Changó is West London's home for 100% salsa — just 15 minutes from Lancaster Gate.
Lancaster Gate sits right on the edge of Hyde Park, and Changó at The Amadeus is just a short journey north. Take the Central line one stop to Paddington and switch to the Bakerloo, or enjoy a 25-minute walk through Bayswater and up to Maida Vale. Join our weekly Monday Crossbody and Cali Salsa classes plus social dancing, or one of our occasional Saturday parties from August.
The quickest route is the Central line one stop east to Paddington (Praed Street exit), then the Bakerloo line one stop north to Warwick Avenue. Total journey time is about 15 minutes including the short walk to The Amadeus at 50 Shirland Rd, W9 2JA.
Changó offers something rare in London — a salsa night with zero genre mixing. From the first track to the last it is 100% salsa: timba, dura, romántica. The community is welcoming, the floor is spacious, and our weekly Monday class — plus one class at every occasional Saturday party — makes it perfect whether you are brand new to salsa or have been dancing for years.
