Greetings!
Gian & Masha are back from judging and performing at the Queensland State Salsa Titles. It was inspiring to see and judge the competition in Brisbane. Professional Salsa dancers Roberto Paul and Jenna Lindenberg were the overall winners with the highest scoring points for the evening. This weekend Gian is off to judge the South Island Salsa Competition in Christchurch, while Masha will be in Auckland rehearsing with TEAM Latinissimo dancers for the upcoming NZ Salsa Nationals. TEAM Latinissimo Auditions is coming up later in October to recruit members for National, International and Local performances and competition opportunities! All info will be given to you on the day of the auditions. Read more below. Sincerely, Salsadance.co.nz Latin Dance Studios (LDS) 0800 SALSADANCE (725 723) |

As we all know, the popularity of Salsa is just phenomenal! But how did it all come about, Salsa music and Salsa dancing? Where did it originate and how did it actually become the dance we dance today?!

Have look, learn and educate yourself more about how the intoxicating rhythm of Salsa dancing came about! Video >> HERENOTE: Once on the page >> click on the tab that says "The History of Salsa Dancing". |
