English is the main language for workshops and announcements. Instructors come from various countries, but they teach in English (with common salsa terms in Spanish). This ensures that the international crowd can all follow along. The social aspects (like chatting during parties) will be multilingual, but you’ll find English is the common ground. So, don’t worry – you do not need to speak Norwegian (SalsaNor is based in Norway) or the local host country language to enjoy the congress.
