Meet Your Dance Coach
My name is Cyrus Henry
I am a multidisciplinary artist and dedicated partner dance coach based in Sydney, Campbelltown-Leumeah
I first fell in love with salsa at 16, and that passion grew into a life immersed in movement. Over the last 16 years, I’ve trained in salsa, bachata, ballroom, Latin, contemporary, and commercial dance — performing on international stages like The Voice, X-Factor, and Virgin Voyages. I also taught Smooth and Rhythm styles at Arthur Murray Parramatta.
What truly lights me up, though, is teaching partner dance as a vehicle for confidence, connection, and joy.
Whether you're:
-
A single (man or woman) stepping into dance for the first time
-
A couple wanting something fun and connective to do together
-
A returning dancer looking to sharpen your skills
-
Or wedding partners preparing for your first dance —
I’ll meet you exactly where you’re at.
As both a professional dancer and certified healer & life coach, my approach is grounded, supportive, and deeply personal. I teach more than steps — I teach communication through movement, intimacy through rhythm, and playfulness through presence.
Let’s dance with intention — and have a damn good time doing it.
Also FYI I now have a buzz cut and will get new photos eventually, just in case you are expecting a long luscious curly haired brown man

Where are the lessons held?All sessions are held at my private home studio in Leumeah (Campbelltown area) which I will disclose the address upon booking confirmation. It’s a cosy, dedicated dance space in a granny flat behind the main house — quiet, private, and ideal for focused learning.
-
Do I need any dance experience?Nope. Most of my students are complete beginners or returning after a long break. My coaching is designed to meet you at your level and help you feel confident from the very first step.
-
What styles do you teach?I specialise in salsa on-1 LA, and I also teach bachata, ballroom and Latin styles — especially for wedding couples. Whether you're learning for fun or for a special occasion, we’ll tailor the style to suit your goals and vibe. Aside from partner dancing I also teach breakdancing, hip hop and contemporary
-
What should I wear to the session?Wear something comfortable that allows you to move. Shoes that can slide. Heels are optional — only if you're preparing in them for a specific dance or event.
-
Can I bring someone with me for support?Yes. If you’d like to bring a partner, friend, or support person to your session, that’s totally okay — just let me know in advance so I can make sure the space is ready.
-
What’s your cancellation policy?I ask for a minimum of 24 hours' notice if you need to cancel or reschedule your session. Cancellations made within 24 hours may still incur the full session fee. Thanks for understanding — my time and studio space are limited.
-
Do you offer group classes?At the moment, all sessions are private (1:1 or 1:2 for couples), which allows for deep, personalised coaching. If you’re looking for group classes, I also teach weekly at Latin Dance Touch at Gregory Hills Community Centre on Monday nights, where you can join classes in Cuban Salsa, Bachata, and LA Salsa.
-
How far in advance should I book?Spots fill quickly — especially in the evenings and weekends — so I recommend booking 1–2 weeks ahead if you can. If you’re preparing for a wedding, even more time is ideal so we can space out your sessions for practice and progress.
