From September 11th to 13th, 2009 Madrid, Spain will host Convencion Salsea, the first SALSEA Convention ever with a first class variety of artists and dancers.
Two nights and two afternoons there will be social dancing, shows and performances. There will be more than 35 workshops and more than 2000 square meters of wooden dance floor! The event will take place in the Madrid hotel Auditorium, with perfect conditions and additionally 1000 rooms available for 34€/person (tax included).
So why is Convencion Salsea considered a Convention and not a Salsa Congress:
because they start at 11:00pm with spectacular performances and social dance at the same time (parallel) until 3:00am and after this until 5:30am pure social dance. You can also practice after the workshops or at the party with your professors. It is a big party of professional instructors, dancers, dj’s, and friends!
Estilo Dance Studio held their Spring Salsa Student Performance on March 21, 2009 at the TD University center in Mt. Laurel, NJ.

We asked D.J. Tony Salsa to tell us a little about himself:
I love Dj’n with a passion. They say that drugs are bad for you. Well my high is watching people dancing to the salsa I play.
Its a joy to see people dancing n enjoying themelves. I’ve been dj’n since I was 15yrs old. I play old types of music from Mambo, hip-hop to oldies, motown and disco.

The Estilo student performance is always a big production with an afternoon show and an evening show because of the droves of people who want to come and watch! I went to watch the evening show and literally every seat was filled! People had to stand in the aisles!
If you are going to watch the performance next year, be sure to come early so you can grab your seat of choice.
My favorite performance and the crowd’s favorite performance was the Men’s Shine Performance. All in all everyone did an absolutely FABULOUS job!

The Atrium Dance Studio celebrated their 8th Anniversary this Saturday, February 21, 2009 at their weekend Latin Party. Droves of people came out to go salsa dancing and watch the student performances. The studio, while normally spaceous, found itself packed with salseros!
Each year, since 2004, Barbara Capaldi’s students perform a showcase to show everyone what they have been learning all year round. Students can learn Tap, Ballroom dances, Flamenco, Belly Dance and more at the Atrium Dance Studio. Yoga instruction is also provided for FREE as a service to her dancers on Wednesdays and can also be taken by non-dancers for a very small fee.
Saturday, students and instructors performed Belly Dance, Hip Hop, Argentine Tango, and of course, Salsa.
Watch some of the student performances below. If you are unable to view them, you may need to download Quicktime first. http://www.apple.com/quicktime/
