COOL  MOVES  AND  IMAGINATIVE  IDEAS  IN  DANCE
         By Barb Bernstein, Director of DanceInTime.com 
BarbBtalks@aol.com  
       On August 21, 2005, the Miami Salsa Congress, produced by Rene Gueits of Salsa Lovers Dance Studio, undertook to break the world record for the size of a Rueda circle.  They did this as a highlight to their Congress, and they succeeded in breaking the record!  Click Here for story... .

 

Aaaahhh…. The Things I’ve Learned…

A Few Words of Wisdom, From Edie, The Salsa FREAK   p;As a follower, if you want your partnership to withstand the transition, just remember the words of my mother, “Your patience is your wisdom”.  As the private lesson came to a close, I asked the couple to hold hands, look into each other’s eyes, and repeat after me the following solemn promise:    “I promise…. to never complain… whine… clear my throat…  gripe… give dirty looks… about your dancing… while social dancing at a nightclub… when we are out having fun…“  Those words brought tears to both their eyes.  It put a lump in my throat too.  Click here for story...

 

What do you do when your dance partner is your significant other, and you both screw up your routine on stage?  More Words of Wisdom, From Edie, The Salsa FREAK The first natural impulse is to blurt out the word “YOU…” before all the other words that come vomiting out of your mouth.  “What happened???” is another good one that always starts the fire ablaze.  “WHAT WERE Y0U THINKING???” is priceless.  That will leave the both of you sleeping on the seam of the mattress for a couple nights.  “What the $#@&… went wrong…“ among all the other profanities human kind has made up over the centuries is a sure-fired way to divorce court… Yup, I’ve just about seen it, and been through it all.  Surviving and withstanding a partnership with your significant other is one of the toughest things you can put your relationship through.  Click here for story...  

 

Dance Partner Tips  Even MORE Words of Wisdom, From Edie, The Salsa FREAK   Dear Edie, My dance partner is an accomplished, professional dance instructor.  He / she is also my spouse/significant other.  When he/she teaches others how to dance, he/she is very patient and kind, even loving and thoughtful.  But when it comes to working and training ME, they turn into an evil, unkind, unsightly, impatient, @$$#! 
Why is that?
Complacency and comfort in your relationship is normal.  You’re both fabulous under the sheets, so expectations outside of the sheets soar through the roof.  Teaching our significant others to do ANYTHING outside of sex is virtually impossible....

The Magic of the UK Salsa Congress
By Edie, The Salsa FREAK

There’s something magical about the UK Salsa Congress. I don’t know whether it’s the fun-loving British spirit that promoters Paul and Imogen Young bring to the table,
or whether it’s just that “good ‘ole Brit humor” that does it for me. Probably both. Edie Challenges the Brits to develop their own Salsa Style... .

A Winning Dance Recipe    By  Mike and Sharon
You've gone to a Salsa congress, you've gone to a few local competitions and shows. And you're thinking, "Hmmm, I can do that.." Well Virginia, easier said than done. But, if the difficult takes time and the impossible takes a little longer, with a little organization and persistence, you can compete too.   Click here for story...
