Talal was born in Fes, Morocco in 1980, and those familiar with this popular Salsa star, known to his students and fan base simply as Talal, would probably not be surprised to learn that this young dance phenomenon had displayed a love and an aptitude for music from a very young age.
It was at the clubs in Belgium in the year 2000 that he would first discover Salsa, and being aware of his talent he decided to invest in it.
Talal joined up with one of the local teams, and in just a few short years his innovative style and ability to lead, led to several opportunities to perform, not only in Belgium but also in a number of international events.
Just four short years after discovering Salsa for the first time, Talal created the now famous “Salsa Sunrise” a ground-breaking salsa production of which he is now the director. Aside from his duties with Salsa Sunrise, Talal is a much sought-after performer and choreographer for events worldwide. His passion, energy and creativity, coupled with his unparalleled technique for teaching Salsa both On“1” and On“2” has made him one of the best known and well-respected names in the salsa world.
Talal continues to teach and perform in Brussels to this day, as well as at salsa congresses around the world, and based on his effectiveness as an instructor, dancer and his enormous international popularity it certainly appears he will continue to do so for quite some time to come.
