Our Team

ALFREDO ROLDAN

I am a Canadian citizen born
in Cali, Colombia, the salsa capital
of the world. My blood carries
the taste of tropical rhythms and
an immense love for nature, the
sun, the outdoors and especially
water. Technology has been my
profession but music and dance have been my passion.
The story of Experience Salsa began six years ago when
the salsa that runs through my veins and the love of Canadians
for dancing Salsa came together in my life, when
I started visiting venues where Canadians dance Salsa and
other latin rhythms.
On one side I found those who want to learn and on the other side those who know how to teach, so I decided
to help them both, those who want to learn to dance salsa, live it and experience it in the best place in the world to do it, Cali in Colombia, land of Sabrosura and those who
know how to teach it because they live it and feel it.

Why Cali

Cali is known as the Sucursal del Cielo, which loosely translates to “the branch office of heaven.”
For those who love Latin American music, Cali needs no introduction. Cali is considered the Salsa capital of the world.
For the locals or caleños, salsa is a native sound, a musical style to be proud of, and this clearly permeates the Cali culture.
Cali has a multiethnic fusion of races which gives it its cosmopolitan and cheerful character.

Cali is at the foot of “Los Farallones de Cali”, mountain range, which is part of the Great Andes mountain range that crosses SouthAmerica from North to South, from these mountains descend seven rivers that cross and refresh the city.
Cali for being in the tropical zone has an average temperature of 25 celsius all year round.

Why Colombia

Land Of Sabrosura

Colombia has been undergoing a very positive transformation in the past decade, and with the recent signing of a historic peace treaty the country is now regarded as one of the safest countries for tourists in Latin America. For many years Colombia has remained a mystery for travelers and musicians from around the globe, but Colombians are now welcoming visitors from around the planet with open arms.

Colombia is one of the most biodiverse countries on the planet, and is equally diverse in terms of music (more than 1,000 rhythms). A country with many distinct, varied regions, each with its own unique customs, music, dances, traditions, accents, social patterns, and cultural adaptations. An added benefit is the food! Along with other cultural expressions of national identity, Colombian cuisine varies among its many different regions, and is as diverse as its climate, landscapes, and people.

Colombia is the second country in the world in biodiversity and the first in species of birds and the second in biodiversity.

Some basic facts about traveling in Colombia:

Passport & Visa

Citizens of the United States, Canada and most European countries require a valid passport to enter Colombia. Visas are not required if you are a citizen of Australia, Canada, France, Germany, New Zealand, South Africa, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, or the United States.

What to Bring

The country’s climate varies by region. Temperatures vary in relation to elevation rather than latitude. So dress accordingly the areas you will be visiting. Cali is 25 Celsius degrees in average all year round and Cartagena is 28 Celsius degrees.

Electricity

The country operates on 110 volt like the United States. Electric outlets accept U.S.-type plugs. This means that transformers are not necessary for tourists from the U.S. We have seen 220 volt outlets in very remote locations.

Insurance

No need to say, but always wise to buy travel insurance before any of your international travels.

Water

They say tap water is safe in most cities, personally, we recommend you avoid drinking tap water, specially in rural areas. As an extra precaution some travelers choose to brush their teeth with bottle water in those rural areas too.

Language

The majority of Colombians speak Spanish.

Currency

The Colombian peso (COL$) is the official currency. Money is denominated in notes of 1,000, 2,000, 5,000, 10,000, 20,000, and 50,000, and coins of 20, 50, 100, 200, and 500 pesos.

Time Zone

All of Colombia is 5 hours behind Greenwich Mean Time, that is, the same as U.S. Eastern Standard Time (EST) Colombia does not observe Daylight Savings Time.
