ANYONE who loves the sounds and rhythms of South American music and wants to keep fit should consider trying some new dance classes.

Salsa sessions are to be held at Southlands Leisure Centre, Middlesbrough, from Friday, May 3.

The classes, which are expected to prove popular, will be suitable for both beginners and those with some experience.

Beginners' lessons will be held on Fridays, from 6.30pm to 7.15pm, and followed by an intermediate class, from 7.15pm to 8pm.

Participants are advised to bring along a partner.

The six-week courses cost £12 for Leisure Link holders and £14 for non-Leisure Link holders.
