Why kind of shoes are best to wear for Salsa dancing lessons?
Rubber soles are out (too much traction for you to turn) and some synthetic soles are too slippery (risking a fall). If it’s a good wood floor, sueded leather is the best sole surface, but not by any means a necessity. You’ll want a back or at least a strap so you don’t dance out of them.

Something with a suede sole, preferably. Most dance stores sell special ballroom and latin shoes, which vary greatly in price and/or style. Often they look something like this: http://www.ballroomplaza.com/stores/shoes/dsol/ladies_sandals/160101.jpg
Ask your studio/teacher what shoes would be best for the most accurate answer because often times teachers like their students to wear a particular style of shoe.
