-------------------------

This week and next are the primary weeks for the 3rd Annual Salsa Competition! So far we've had three prelim's and 6 couples advancing (if you missed last Sunday at Platforms in Providence, dangit, what a night!)  This week:

  Thursday:  Punto Final in Lawrence
  Friday:    Viernes con Clave with DJ Hernan in Cambridge/Somerville
  Saturday:  Liquid Sky in Worcester
  Sunday:    Wepa Salsa Sunday with April (and cruise beforehand!)

Well, looks like I have a busy weekend...!  Also coming up, don't miss Cache in Lynn and Union St. plus a last chance round at Sophia's.  Want to host a round yourself?  Some dates still sort of open.  Contact us!

Scroll down for venue notes (like directions) in the competition details.  If you always wanted to explore some clubs in the outskirts, here's a great chance!

Anyway, more details below or at http://salsaboston.com/competition, but if you want to compete, or if you have competed and you want to try again, preregister so we can get you into the club for free!  Registration form on the website, or email kelly@salsaboston.com with your names.  Note: you must be amateur status, which most people in the grey area so far have been.  Contact Kelly if you're not sure.

Salsa Night at Sophia's new includes a Casino Rueda class from 7:45 to 9:15, as part of the night.  We're doing this because Casino Rueda is a blast and we don't see much of it around here. In other words, we want to get it going in this area!  The lessons will be taught by members of JAM'NASTICS.  There will be an introductory lesson concurrent with an ongoing intermediate level class. If you've never done Casino Rueda but know basic Salsa, take the introductory class once or twice and graduate up to the intermediate level.  If you've never danced Salsa at all, Johnny and Kelly's regular Salsa class will of course still be happening as usual from 9:15-10:15.  $12 covers you for the whole night ($10 after 10:15).  If you're an expert and don't plan to take Johnny and Kelly's class, you will have an hour inbetween to practice, have a drink, or get a bite to eat downstairs.

If you've never heard of Casino Rueda, it's an "exhilarating" dance that comes from Cuba via Miami, that can best be described as "Salsa meets square dancing", or "sychronized Salsa".  It's a group Salsa dance, with partners in a circle, there's a caller and and a bunch of moves that everyone knows.  As the dance progresses, everyone does the same moves together, often trading partners as part of it.  The whole thing is a blast!  If you ever danced in Miami, it's extremely popular down there.

More details will be posted in www.salsaboston.com/sophias/rueda.html,
with a video clip as well.

2)  Hi Olaf,

How are you? I met you at BCCA a few weeks ago.  I just wanted to let you know there is a Waterfire event in Providence on Sat. July 26th, and the featured style that night is, what else, but salsa!  For anyone who has never been to waterfire, it is a very cool free outdoor event along the
downtown area of Providence.   See www.waterfire.com  for more info on the
waterfire itself.  In addition, on certain occasions of waterfire, Sovereign Bank sponsors a dance night.  They drop a dance floor in the middle of the street, hire a live band, and then there are lessons, demonstrations, and open dancing under the stars until midnight!  And all for FREE!  What could be better than that?!

Happy dancing!

JD's Corner
By JD Smith

Count Those Blessings

  So, what’s with all this “malaise” I’ve been hearing talked about? Let’s just take a step back and get a little perspective here.  My mom used to call it “counting one’s blessings”.

  First off, we are fortunate to be located in an area culturally diverse enough to even entertain the idea of a Latin dance scene. As well, our close proximity to NYC allows us to avail ourselves of the immensely vital Latin scene present there. From what I see, the Apple’s salsa crowd doesn’t mind coming up this way to party in the Bean from time to time either, kind of sister cities so to speak.

  Let’s talk a minute about the fantastically talented pool of instructors who give so generously of their time and energies to help us all progress and enjoy our dancing at higher levels. There are also the numerous venues that continually open their doors to our crowd, despite what I am told are painfully thin profit margins. In fact, there are enough places to dance to keep any salsero in clave six nights a week!  Then there are the various flavors of latin music that each have their respective venues and followers, Latin jazz, merangue, salsa, house latin etc.there appears to be a considerable variety of styles as well as presentation formats to choose from. And let’s not forget the frequent visits from great acts like Celia Cruz, Gilberto Santa Rosa,. El Gran Combo, Rueben Blades, Cubanismo, Arturo Sandoval, et al. who bring their prodigious talents right to our door steps in our concert halls and public venues.

  As for myself, between lessons, rehearsals, hangin’ out and dancing, my salsa week is pretty full indeed, as a matter of fact, I could stand to back off just a bit to make time to take care of other kinds of business. As far as I’m concerned, the fact there are now existing several online newsletters and forums, is indication of a good deal of vitality in the scene, any controversies not withstanding.

  I believe as well that controversy encourages a healthy exchange of ideas and opinions so necessary to the health of any movement or community and up to this point at least it’s all being handled in a mature and respectful fashion. No, it’s not perfect and I’m sure many of us can see lots of ways our little scene here could improve, but personally, I don’t think I’m quite ready to think of it in terms of “malaise”, on the contrary it seems to me quite healthy indeed.  So, tonight, if you can, count those blessings instead of sheep, you’ll sleep better knowing your salsa world is just fine.
