We are headed into the 3rd week of January. Did you follow through with that New Year's Resolution? If you've been thinking about taking salsa lessons, but are a little scared, give yourself a chance. The Baltimore Salsa Community is filled with places to learn and friendly people to help you. Already an expert? Great, see you at the World Salsa Championships in December. For everyone else, answer me this. Are your moves predictable? Are your dance partners getting bored with you? Then it is time to step up your game and learn something new. Take some workshops or private lessons. Then, from March 30 -April 1, everyone should take full advantage of a fantastic opportunity to learn from the directors of famous dance teams - Baila Society, Pkante, Calle Luna, and more at the 3rd Annual Baltimore Salsa Fest. Why travel to a big city like New York, New Jersey, Philadelphia or Boston to study under them when they are coming to Baltimore? Don't miss any of it. Buy a full pass and attend 3 nights of parties, 2 days of workshops, and 3 nights of amazing performances with 7 DJ's and 2 live bands. Enjoy a high-energy, heart throbbing, jaw dropping experience. Go to www.baltimoresalsafest.com to register and join the biggest salsa party in Baltimore year after year.
