It’s been 2 months since I last got into Salsa Havana due to the things I’ve been doing outside of dancing. I’ve to admit that Saturday was the day I wanted to just laze at home and watch some EPL games but thanks to some friends who’s persuasion is very good, I got off my lazy ass, changed and drove down to KL to dance the night away.

The packed Dance Floor
Stepping into the club, it felt fantastic! The people, the music, the dance! Was greeted by familiar faces majority of whom asked whatever happened to me cause so long never see me in the club as well as some new faces as Salsajay brought out the new students into the world of Social dancing.

Over the recent weekend, Dance Spirit organized a 2 days workshop at Salsa Havana to teach newbies about Bachata, the basic steps as well as some simple turns and dips.

(Fasilito teaching the participants)
I didn’t go for the 1st day as I was at another venue but on Saturday, I was there. As proof, I had an accident on that night too!

(Assisting the workshop for the non-english speaking participants)
It was definitely a good workshop session as some of the new dancers get to learn more about Bachata and the proper way to dance it as before this, there’s quite a lot of awkwardness by new dancers when it comes to Bachata.

As for me, I spend most of the time behind the Deejay console, but I still get my fair share of dancing before we call it a night at 5am. For photos of that night, click here.

The 2nd Malaysia World Latin Salsa Congress 2008 kicked off with a bang with a Fun and Dance filled Press Conference held at Salsa Havana, KL. The Cuban Embassador was there to grace the event with short sweet speech to officiate the whole event. This is a change compared to some of the local VIPs speech which could last for hours (That’s how it felt like).

Of course, we also had Martin Reyes of Salsa Havana KL to give his take on the Salsa Congress in April. Huge crowd will be expect on the 18th - 21st April so if you’ve not registered yet do hurry up. Drop me a message to find out more about the prices and the registration forms.

Apart from the speeches, it’s never complete without Salsa Performances for a Salsa related event, right? That’s where we had the Ritmo Latino’s dance team performing…
