Red Line)

617-513-9841 (Call to reserve a table or to book
a group)
Dear Salseros!
Some very exciting news for you! After four years at An Tua Nua,
we're relocating Salsa Wednesdays to a very cool new venue, Sagra
Restaurant, right in the heart of Davis Square in Somerville. We're
doing this because we felt it was time to find a nicer place more
suitable to the needs of Salseros. We had some great times at An Tua
Nua, but we're really looking forward to the new place. The consensus is
two thumbs up!
Each Night:
9:30pm-10:15pm: Beginner/Adv. Beg. Salsa Lessons with Salsa Y
Control/Johnny & Kelly
10:15pm-1am: Dancing! Salsa/Latin with resident DJ's D. Martinez
and Hernan
(note: lessons with MetaMovements from 7-9 will resume will resume
later
this summer, as we don't have space lined up for those times yet)
 
About Sagra
Sagra Restaurant is a very elegant fairly new Italian Restaurant in
Davis Square. We will be on the ground level this summer, and by the
end of the summer they are building out the 2nd floor with a full
dance hall, the likes of which we've been dreaming of for years. Join
us for what we predict is going to be a great new home for Salsa!
Features:
- Elegantly decorated restaurant with a full bar
- 1 minute from the Red Line ("Davis Square")
- Nice wooden dance floor (moderately sized, until later this summer
when we
move upstairs)
- Outdoor terrace and open air bar area
- A great loungie flavor
- Very friendly staff and management
- Tons of free municipal parking lots and street parking (note: meters
go until 8pm)
- The menu is supposed to be awesome! Modestly priced gourmet Italian,
most items $10-$19. (Kitchen closes at 10pm presently)

Details »
Starting Sunday, June 21, SalsaBoston Presents "Salsa, Down at the Boca Bar"
Located in the heart of the bustling Moody St. district in Waltham, the Boca Bar is a Costa Rican owned tropically flavored establishment, modeled after the famous Club Mangos/South Beach in Miami. It's a perfect vibe for Salsa, in a cozy little place.
The night will have a local flavor since the place is small (~50-60 people), with DJ Saoko and guests. Salsa lessons at 8pm. The club will also have a bar menu available, and possibly a Costa Rican dinner special. More details TBA.
Free parking is available on street and in numerous municipal lots in the area.

New Hampshire: Salsa Social June 20 |
|
|
The next Paper Moon Salsa Social is June 20th. The workshops are from 6-9pm and the party goes from 9pm until 2am. The dance floor is brand new and huge! It's BYOB. Come drink, dance and socialize. Free unlimited parking directly out front. I hope everyone can make it. We need your support in order to start a new salsa scene in New Hampshire. It is 45 minutes to an hour outside of Boston and worth the drive. This is great for people living in the Lawrence and Lowell areas. Workshops are $10 each and you get free entry into the party with the purchase of any workshop. If you opt not to take a workshop, the party is $10. Student discounts available with ID.
