How could I say "no?"
I have a long (though somewhat not-so-well-known) history of pretending to be a dancer. I was half-way to a dance minor at BYU before I decided that 2 minors (Film and English) were enough (not to mention almost getting a Korean minor as well).
Anyhow, point is - I've done some dancing in my day... but never Salsa. Now, lest you think one free group-lesson taught me anything, let me disuade you from your lofty plans to market me with those VonTrapp family singers. I have a long way to go, but it was still a fun afternoon activity (and a great opportunity to put the Spanish to use). The instructor rambled on about 8-counts and such in Spanish and (for the most part) I kept up. Granted, I probably would have done fine without ANY Spanish, but still...Fun times... I think I'll go again.
And yes, like all dance clases... It was 2/3 women and 1/3 men. No complaints here (except for those regarding that freakish Sweedish chica and that really abrasive 60+ year old Americano - who couldn't dance to save his life).
