Escuela de Baile Citlali is one of Monterrey's longest-running dance schools, founded in 1982 by Esther Gómez Pérez, a specialist in physical education and popular dance. For over four decades it has taught salsa, bachata, cumbia, banda, norteñas and more, with a reputation for turning complete beginners into confident social dancers. With students ranging from children to seniors, the school keeps its instructors continually trained through courses and congresses at home and abroad. It offers a free trial class by reservation, making it an accessible entry point into Monterrey's Latin dance scene.
