En Vivo Latino Music Festival and After Party
Student Performance Team
The SalsaNow Performance Team is comprised of students from our Salsa classes. Team practices and performances provide an opportunity for students to take their dancing to a higher level and to strengthen the camaraderie among students. Performances also provide a platform for SalsaNow to showcase material that is taught in class and to demonstrate how much fun it is to be a part of SalsaNow. We are very proud of all of our students.
The student performance team is relatively informal, with dancers from all walks of life, of varied ages and experiences. The teams have trained for a professionally choreographed routine under the direction of SalsaNow's Niss and Alex. Practices are held weekly at The Promenade on Tuesdays at 9 PM. The team performs at various events and club demonstrations during the year as opportunities arise and schedules allow.
We welcome new members to join the next team. Qualified dancers should have a full grasp of salsa basics at an intermediate level, the ability to commit time to rehearsals, and most importantly, enthusiasm! Team experience is an excellent way to improve your dancing and meet lots of equally keen dancers. The choreography is designed specifically for this team with the abilities of the team members in mind, and no matter your prior experience, you will have a lot of fun as part of a close knit group, not to mention the thrill of entertaining the crowds. There is a fee collected up front for one month at a time based on how many hours are spent on training, and the dancers will need to purchase their own costumes (minimal cost).
New dance team training will start in 2014 and continue every Tuesday night. For more information about the salsa team or to join our team, please contact us. The SalsaNow Performance team is currently available for performance bookings.

Put your best foot forward with lessons before the dancing starts. Then enjoy a night of music and dancing to the music of DJ Mambo Soul. And if you're in the giving mood, bring something for the toy drive for the underprivileged kids.
Come undressed in your best sleepwear
Don't be so shy,
the night of excitement will be as fireworks on 4th of July
A pajama party that's packed full of fun
Come cute as a bunny, conservative as a nun,
Hef with his harem or Hulk on the run
Funky Reggae mon, or a local Bal'more Hon
Leave your slippers behind and come in dance shoes
as we turn you on with Latin rhythm and tunes.
Whether you're a hot tamale or a big curvy Mami
villain or hero, sugar daddy or Papi Latino
Sexy, naughty, hunky, or buff
Dance to your heart's content 'cause you can't get enough
This will be one night you won't soon forget
So get yourself there or you'll surely regret
Come dance your socks off and don't forget the gift.
The gift of a teddy bear for a needy child
that will live forever in their hearts and in your mind.

Amir's main goal is not only to teach students how to dance with confidence on the dance floor, but also to teach them how to make friends and how to communicate with others which are the main fundamentals for a good confident dancer.

Student Performance Team
The SalsaNow Performance Team is comprised of students from our Salsa classes. Team practices and performances provide an opportunity for students to take their dancing to a higher level and to strengthen the camaraderie among students. Performances also provide a platform for SalsaNow to showcase material that is taught in class and to demonstrate how much fun it is to be a part of SalsaNow. We are very proud of all of our students.
The student performance team is relatively informal, with dancers from all walks of life, of varied ages and experiences. The teams have trained for a professionally choreographed routine under the direction of SalsaNow's Niss and Alex. Practices are held weekly at the Admiral Fitt studio on Tuesdays at 9 PM. The team performs at various events and club demonstrations during the year as opportunities arise and schedules allow.
We welcome new members to join the next team. Qualified dancers should have a full grasp of salsa basics at an intermediate level, the ability to commit time to rehearsals, and most importantly, enthusiasm! Team experience is an excellent way to improve your dancing and meet lots of equally keen dancers. The choreography is designed specifically for this team with the abilities of the team members in mind, and no matter your prior experience, you will have a lot of fun as part of a close knit group, not to mention the thrill of entertaining the crowds. There is a fee collected up front for one month at a time based on how many hours are spent on training, and the dancers will need to purchase their own costumes (minimal cost).
New dance team training will start soon and continue every Tuesday night. For more information about the salsa team or to join our team, please contact us.
