Strictly’s Lauren Steadman teaches salsa

‘Strictly Come Dancing’ contestant Lauren Steadman teaches "beginners" how to salsa.
The Paralympic silver medallist will be competing in the upcoming series of the BBC’s ballroom contest, and it seems she could hae an advantage over some of her fellow stars.
A spokesman told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "She has salsa danced socially for several years and on occasion, due to shortages of teachers, she has helped beginners.
"She’s not formally trained or qualified. She does it because she loves it!"
Lauren – who competed as a swimmer at both the 2008 and 2012 Paralympics – previously revealed how she was advised to get into dancing to make up for the fact sport was no longer a hobby for her.
Speaking in May last year, she explained: "I like to dance salsa – I’ve been doing it for about four years and I teach now as well.
"I got into it because my psychologist said that sport is no longer your hobby, it’s your career, so you need something outside of that to enjoy.
"I gave it a try and the rest is history."
The 25-year-old star – who was born missing her lower right arm – will appear on the ballroom floor alongside the likes of Susannah Constantine, Katie Piper and Lee Ryan.
Susannah recently admitted she was looking to give her own chances a boost, and almost hired a professional dance tutor to help her get ahead of her fellow contestants
She confessed: "I thought about hiring professional help – a big ‘Strictly’ No-No.
"My husband even found me a local professional dance tutor, the son of his bike mechanic, but I didn’t want to get done for cheating. In hindsight, I regret it."
