Estaban and Desiree from Mexico.  Irene Holtzman Keith Givens, Big Jimmy Shines Yoon , PsyniiGianni, Shaka Brown , Liz Rodriguez. Gary Potugal, Darlin Garcia,  Jose Luis Giterrez from Salsa Karibe, Wendy and Rodrigo and myself and more will be teachng Salsa and  ChaChaCha workshops at the DC Bachata Congress Aug 8- Aug 11, 2013   Here is the workshop schedule .

Lucky Strike was packed with dancers from all over the place and the dance levels as always as well are all over the place.

But I think that in a way that is a good thing .

There is alwasy going to be someone for you to dance with no matter what level you are  Which in turn means the dance floor is alwasy going to rocking with people  dancing and having fun. Whcin creates ia place you know you can go and get your Latin Dance groove on from Salsa , Bachata. Kizomba , Merengue , and ChaChaCha.

It was the Pre Party for the DC Bachata Congress  2013 and International Dance Festival and some of the Artists from all over the world

were already in town and gave Master Salsa and Bachata Workshops this past Sunday at Lucky Strike . There were also Master Kizomba Workshops as well. All the materual taugh was very valuable .

The party was crazy from start to finish With a VIP Bachta Kizomba Lounge and Salsa Merengue ChaChaCha and Bachata in the Maon Room .

I met a  lot of new people this past Sunday at Lucky Strike.  I love the fact that there are so many people in the DMV interested in Latin Dance.

We always need neew people tp keep the Salsa going. LOL

The StuckOnSalsa Ball Room holds a capacity of 1.000 dancers.
