That sounds like a really shit way to run a salsa class. In my class they rotate follows every few minutes during the lesson part and in the social dancing part everyone changes partners after every song, pretty much. Part of being a good dancer is knowing how to dance with anyone as long as there's good communication. If you only ever dance with same person, you'll only learn how to understand their body language and no one else's.

Also, in my classes all the instructors will lead or follow during the social part according to what their partner wants to do, including switching halfway through (which is pretty sick when it goes smoothly).

Crazy thing is. They do actually switch followers. And they even say they will do it after you get a permanent dance partner, unless you don't want to. Which makes it really confusing that it is mandatory to find a permanent partner. Otherwise you'll be booted.
