for more details
** The chatter about cruise season is almost deafening here at SalsaBoston HQ,
in fact I get calls each week wondering if they are starting yet. Well, they
are---June 20! Fridays and Sundays, alternating weeks, this year. The dates
are online. http://salsaboston.com/cruise Prices are tentatively the same as
well. Questions or want to book a group? Call me at 617-513-9841. Ask your
HR department to book a group! They have budgets for that.
** ATTENTION SALSA INSTRUCTORS!
I am relaunching a program we've had for a while that many don't
know about. Salsa Field Trips to An Tua Nua!
The idea is that your beginner level studio class students
often don't know where to go dancing or need a little
hand holding (I know I did, way back when...), so we have
this program which offers a discount coupon to the students.
PLUS, we pay a commission to you, the instructor, to book a
"graduation field trip" for your beginner classes. You
can participate as often as you like as well, once for
each session you teach.
Contact me for details: olaf@salsaboston.com or 617-513-9841
** SalsaBoston's new sister company, Swing City Productions,
Presents "SWING CITY"
every Friday in Somerville.
If you want to take a break from Salsa and come out and dance.
Next Date: Fri. May 30 with Toni Lynn Washington Orchestra
Check out the details at
http://swingcityboston.com
29 Central St. off Somerville Ave. btw Porter and Union Sq.
All ages welcome.
Lessons 7:45-8:45, Dancing 8:45-1am, full bar (21+ to drink).
Be sure to subscribe to the list!
See you on the dance floor!

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.

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.

room! Full Bar. Please check your coat.
