October 2007

Hi Everyone!

What a busy month we've had! We had a fantastic time at Salsa Splash Spain... great weather, great dancing, great company, loads of fun. One of our highlights was going to see Henry and Ronaldinho play (&win!) for Barcelona in the Champions League at the world famous Nou Camp. If you're at all into football, you'll know what that means! Hopefully there'll be a fixture that coincides with the Barcelona day trip next year. Even if football's not your thing, the shopping is an absolute must! Altogether, a holiday well worth putting in your diary for 2008.

Last week was the all new UK Congress at the BIC in Bournemouth. We found it to be an extremely enjoyable and inspiring weekend. Thank you to all of you for your tremendous support in our show and classes. To top it all, Marchant was presented with an award for his achievements and contribution to salsa, and for raising the standard of teaching in the UK. Many thanks to Salsa UK for this recognition of his work, and to all of you who have supported him over the years, and made it all so worthwhile.

We have photos of both the above events in our gallery... check it out!

NEWSFLASH!! From 6th November, Marchant will be moving his Tuesday night class to Mambo City's new club night at Club Boulevard in Ealing, London. Click here for further details.

And finally, Mambo City are holding their New Years Eve dinner & dance at the Radisson Hotel, Heathrow. This was a brilliant night last year which we thoroughly recommend. We will be teaching and performing at the event. Also we will once again be hosting some tables for dinner. If you would like to join our party, you need to book your tickets through us. See us at our classes, call or drop us an email. More info below.

There are a few more details on our news below, but keep checking our website as it is kept up-to-date with all the latest.

See you on the dancefloor soon!

Private Lessons

The most effective way of improving your dancing is via the private lesson route. Whether you have hit a plateau in your dance development, want to solve certain problems, gain confidence, or just generally need some inspiration.
