Salsa Nights Out
We at Salsa Y Mambo like to party. We take every opportunity to go out with our students and friends to live gigs and shows, sometimes benefiting from group discounts. If you would like to join us on one of our nights sign up on our mailing list and we will send you details. You don't have to come our classes or events you don't even have to dance salsa. Just come out and have fun with us.

Havana Rakatan Saturday April 1st

In an eclectic mix of costumes, the dancers take the audience on a trip through the history of
Cuban dance. Act One sees flamenco and tribal dances, African influences brought by slaves from the Congo, rhythms originating in the slums of Havana and among the peasants of the country; Act Two shows off the dances that set the streets of Havana alight in the 20th century – mambo, bolero, cha-cha-cha and salsa.

The dances are very different in style and yet all the performers seem as comfortable with tribal acrobatics as with salsa. Given the amount of chemistry on show among the dancers, the whole thing comes across as one big courting ritual – girls shaking their booty in ra-ra skirts and red lycra; guys taking it in turns to show off their moves while the rest cheer them on. It is also very much a team effort, with every dancer as sensuously rhythmic as the next.
