Hola Salseros! Formatting messed

Well,
the winter is finally upon us... Me? Just booked my ticket to Miami
for the holidays! Send me a note if you're going to be down there and we
can meet up at the clubs.
Some hot stuff on the horizon:
-
Saturday. Dec. 17th, SalsaBoston's Holiday Party at the Hyatt Regency Cambridge,
a class act _Salsa_ night, performances, and the whole bit (no band this
time). Everyone raved about this great new special party space last month,
so mark your calendar! www.salsaboston.com/holidayparty Tickets on
the website. ALL AGES. More below.
- Thur. Dec. 15th, not Salsa per
se but we're teaming up with Jet Set Events for a Toys for Tots Christmans
Cocktail Soiree & Benefit at the High Bar. I'll see if I can't get
some "Salsa sets" lined up downstairs. Should be a good party. Also,
New Years! http://salsaboston.com/jetsetevents/newyear.html
-
Saturdays, starting in January, it's 95% certain now: we will be opening Salsa
Saturdays downtown (fin. district near the new Rose Kennedy Park) at a great new
spot. Two big levels with new wood, classy renovations, $6 garage parking
in a modern office building across the street, dining, and much more. We
will have a huge grand opening party. More details forthcoming (the
location is still secret!), but get excited because this is going to be 'da new
spot!
So... action item: Book your tickets right now for Dec. 17th!
($5 off advance)
*** SalsaBoston's Holiday Salsa Party!!
*** Cambridge Hyatt Regency
Hotel Saturday, December
17 An All Ages
Event
Brought to you in conjunction with: JetSet Events
(producers of some of Boston's finest soirees) your favorite DJ's,
D.Martinez and Hernan All the details:
www.salsaboston.com/holidayparty
We got so much great feedback from last
month's Gala at the Hyatt that we went right ahead and booked another
night. This time we will feature a performance show with some of finest
acts, and also we expect this party to have a whole new flavor with the JetSet
Events crowd coming in to party with all the regular Salseros! It will be
a good night to meet some new friends.
Also, there will be a free
"Salsa for Gringos" lesson at 9pm. If you feel like you've got two left
feet, this lesson is for you.
Tickets are $15 advance, $20 at the door,
and *valid, unexpired* college ID or under 18 saves you $5. Tickets are
available now online.

Lastly,
Salsa Sundays at Mojitos is closed for the holiday season and will reopen in
January.
See you on the dancefloor at An Tua Nua
tonight! -Olaf

Have you checked out Masa? If you're up for a casual night and some dining
and an upscale bar, this place is cool on Thursdays. Casual lesson around
10pm, a mix of music, no cover. 439 Trement St, South End, Boston
*
If you missed the Congress or if you enjoyed it but didn't make it to the
congress shop, the DVD will be out by mid November at the latest and probably
sooner, and also Congress embroidered shirts (mens and ladies), caps, and hand
towels are available. We still have a lot of things to pay for this year,
so every purchase helps out. Shirts and the video are $20 each, and the
caps and towels $10. Buy any two and you get $5 off, so the video and a
shirt would be $35.

An Tua Nua is a great contemporary Irish bar & grill on
Beacon Street just outside of Kenmore Square (only about 3 blocks from
Sophia's). In the back they have a dance club about the same size as the
upstairs at Sophia's, with a sizable dance floor that holds about 150 people, a
bar, and plenty of lounge seating.
Close to the green line (St.
Mary's on the C train, Fenway on the D, Kenmore on the B), plenty of street and
lot parking.
Irish/America/Bar food available until 10pm. I have
eaten there regularly, it is very tasty and modestly priced.
Note: they
have Karaoke with my man Kev-Mac Daddy in the front portion of the bar when you
walk in, but don't let that scare you... Salsa is in the back room! Full
Bar. Please check your coat.

******************************************************************* 8) Latino
Motion workshop is back 2 days only: Tuesday Dec 6th and Dec 13th at 8pm -
Dance Complex.
In these classes we are going to be working on isolating
and then combining the move of different parts of the body: shoulders, hips,
torso... to improve your dance skills not only for Latino Dancing but for many
other dances. Salsa Merengue and Bachata, among others, are Latino
rhythms. For us, Latinos, the way you move is probably the most important
component of your dance. Learn to dance with "SABORRRRR", adding movements to
other parts of you body besides your feet and hands: hips, torso, shoulders,
pelvis and butt. All of them, nicely combined, can make a huge difference when
you jump to the dance floor. So what do you think?? Do you want to try it out
and see how much you can improve?? Even if you don't take your dance that
seriously, come over and join us, we guarantee you will have a lot of fun and,
you will find lost parts of your body. Tuesday Dec 6th & Dec 13th at the
Dance Complex - 8-9:30pm 536 Mass Av, Central Sq, Cambridge. ALL
LEVELS!
