Oliver Pineda.. now 9 TIMES WORLD CHAMPION


The Dance guru is delighted to announce our new partnership with 9 times World Salsa Champion Oliver Pineda, bringing you quality dance instruction in Salsa On2.

Oliver has been crowned World Salsa Champion 9 times, 5 of which were with his celebrity dance partner and 3 times winner of ‘Dancing with the Stars’ Luda Kroitor.


Here are Oliver and Luda in the On2 Division at the World Salsa Championships in Las Vegas in 2016:


As well as Salsa On2 Oliver is also dancing Rueda, Merengue, Zouk Lambada, Kizomba, Semba, Samba, Cumbia, Cha Cha, Rumba, Afro Cuban & all the Ballroom & Latin Dancesport styles.


In 2006, Oliver and Natalie Reis lead the ‘Americas’ section out onto the field in the Olympic opening ceremony in Sydney. At the 2006 West Coast Salsa Congress in Los Angeles Oliver was awarded Best Male Instructor.


Oliver’s style is fluid and graceful and yet energetic and highly technical. His style is On2 although this differs from the New York Style of On2 in that it is more open, extended and stylised. Oliver’s style has come to be known Internationally as ‘Aussie Style Salsa’.


You can see his style most clearly when he is social dancing:
