TONIGHT!
FRIDAY @ BEL AIR
at the prestigious Belfry
What
an incredible night we had last month again @
BelAir at the Belfry! Thank you all
again for coming, with so many local salseros, but
also loads from far & wide across the UK. It's
impossible for pictures
& videos
to always do it justice, but we try, so check them
out (lots new ones now online). The 3 MUSIC ROOMS...
SalsaBrava... Cuban/Kizomba/Bachata... & Dance/Soul/RnB
continue to go down a treat, so we plan to keep it
the same for the next SALSABrava
Extravaganza. The countdown has now begun
again, and the next date will be on Friday
3rd September (1st Friday of each month)...
We're
also going to have a little Kizomba warm-up at
9pm and then later a Kizomba performance with
Ian & Sara from SalsaSabrosa (Bristol),
so come early and join in the fun. Please let everybody
know and hopefully you can join us again, I'm there!!!
This night is awesome, so if you're thinking of coming
from far away, it's well worth the trip, with very
easy access of J9 M42, massive secure FREE on-site
car park, and even top Hotel & Spa facilities
for those of you wanting to stay over plus even enjoy
our after-party (2-4am)!!!
NEW
YEAR EVE 2010/11 @ Colliery Club
Also, we are going to be selling our NYE2010/11
tickets at the ridiculously cheap opening offer
price of just £8 this Friday (£10
after, and rising every 2 weeks), so bring a little
extra cash and bag yourselves or your friends a bargain.
It was voted TOP UK SALSA SPECIAL EVENT of 2009
(UK salsa awards), and we're hoping to do it all over
again this next NYE. Believe it or not, it's only
4 months away now! Ahhhhhhhh!!!!!!! here
is the link on-line (available for a very
short time only)

ONLY
1 WEEK AWAY NOW, at Bournbrook & Selly Oak Social
Club. It's been too long since our last one,
so if you want a proper salsa night, lovingly created
for all keen salsa dancers, don't miss this one! (plus
help me celebrate my Bday too - not fishing for cards
by the way, lol). This venue is perfect for salsa
dancing, and we mainly play a hot selection of SALSA
clasica, Mambo & Cha Cha Cha plus a light sprinkling
of Bachata & Kizomba and other great salsa to
add to the mix. If you like your salsa nights like
this, JOIN US and please help us spread the word too.
Whatever you do, make sure you don't miss this one
on SATURDAY 11th September,
with special guests
CRISTIAN
& TITO SHREK (Salsalicimo uk), and JULIAN
SUMMERS spinning alongside myself (Mauricio
Reyes) and DJ Gary Thomas. Definitely one
for the diary! All feedback about previous events
has been overwhelmingly positive, so we feel totally
reassured that this
is
a perfect venue for a big night for salsa dancers
in Birmingham, and worthy of attracting keen dancers
from all over the UK. The Bournbrook & Selly Oak
Social Club is lovely, but above all it's perfect
for dancing with a HUGE Sprung Wooden Dance floor,
and perfectly positioned seating & bar
areas. See previous
events photos here and VIDEO

¡REVOLUCIÓN! CUBAN SALSA NIGHT @ O'neill's
Club
Thanks again to all who have been attending, it really
goes to show that there is a healthy appetite for
a good Cuban salsa night in Birmingham. If you like
this sort of thing, don't miss it, it's promising
to be HOT HOT HOT! We are playing a healthy selection
of great Cuban salsa... Los Van Van, Manolito, Bamboleo,
Cubanismo, Charanga Habanera, Isaac Delgado...to name
but a few... plus a dash of Bachata, Kizomba &
other great salsa too! If you like your salsa nights

The
Original is BACK!!!!

...back SATURDAY 18th SEP @ ST ANNE'S CLUB!!!
So chuffed about the return of our much loved SALSABRAVA
at St Anne's Club in Birmingham.
It's been shut for over 2 years due to a refurb that
almost didn't happen, but finally it's back and perfect
for a top dancers night in the centre of Brum.
We
have re-launched it in August (see
PHOTOS here), and are hoping to keep it running
as a monthly special event on the 3rd Saturday of
each month. All the feedback has been really positive,
with everybody telling us how much fun they had despite
it being a really hot & humid evening.
We
can't change the weather, but are hoping to make some
more improvements & additions to our setup to
make it even better in every way possible, and since
it's obviously such a popular night, we are also going
to make sure the extra wooden dance floor will definitely
be down next time. I'm really looking forward to the
next date on Saturday 18th September, specially
because I'm around too (HURRAY!!), but also got special
guests TONY LARA & DANIELA. Please take
a look below or on the website and put dates in your
diaries. Don't miss it!... more
