Get DirectionsAbout Salud
Salud runs a compact lesson-to-social every Wednesday: a short salsa lesson at 19:30, a bachata lesson at 20:00, then a DJ-led social from 20:30 in a single third-floor room above JR Nippori Station. The venue uses one open main room where lessons, a small dance floor and the bar share the space; there’s an elevator and the East Exit is about a 30‑second walk.
Expect an after-work, local crowd and a lot of solo attendees, lessons are a clear entry point. Wednesday pricing on the site lists the lesson package at ¥2,000 (one drink) and the post-lesson social entry at about ¥1,500 (one drink). Salud runs live shows and daytime classes on other days, but Wednesday is DJ-focused and usually winds down before the last trains around 23:00–23:30, so plan your connections.
