ZH - Salsa weekend workshop - 19+20 June

So once again the Salsa weekend was a full house!


26 people (13 men + 13 women) came together who were absolute beginners and completely new to Salsa dancing...


Beni + Vero did a great job teaching all of us to move on Salsa, Merenge and Bachata music...


I would like to organize a continuation course soon...


What do you guys think?


Your feedback is important...it matters a lot...


Cheers, Ehsaan

Great job from the teachers; they created a very good atmosphere, were extremely friendly, but required continual work at the same time. Very good in explaining, catching on errors, and correcting too. To me it all turned out to be a great individual experience as well as excellent team work and much fun throughout the two days... :) Many thanks...

Excellent job by the teachers and the organizer!


2 days of absolute fun and full confidence that yes! we can also do this salsa thingy!


Looking forward impatiently to 2 things now -


1. some way of starting practice so that we don't forget what we learnt. 


2. the videos!!! Cool 


Guys, we need to gather and start practicing on our own.


Thanks Ehsaan for the wonderful experience...! Laughing

Hi, for me it was good to practice once again the basics and had a lot of fun. The teachers were patient and always in for a laugh.


Vishal: you are right, we have to go out and dance !


Ehsaan, thanks for organizing and I would say a follow-up course would be great.


Cheers

The course was great fun....the first day I found quite intensive but it was great on the second day to go over it all again and be surprised as to how much I actually learned.  Vero and Beni were very good at imparting their knowledge too, whilst making the whole thing a lot of fun...I'll look forward to the next phase!!


My practising with the broomstick at home isn't quite the same though (much less responsive and no toes to tread on :-)) so if any of the group want to head out and get some practice in, I'd be keen to join :-)


Cheers,
Colin

Well you have seen Colins reply and I think also Katalin and Claudia would love to go salsa dancing.


I already more or less agreed with Katalin that we meet for ZüriFäscht as they will have Salsa dancing and then go for it. Have to figure where and when and will send out message to "our" group.


Whaddayousay ?


Cheers

That's right, as long as they have Salsa we are planning to have some fun together at the ZueriFaescht on the night of 3rd July.


Would need to see the agenda of the event though. I know some of you are not available that day due to travelling, etc, but any of you guys that want to join is warmly welcome... :) 


Regards, Katalin

Hi all,


Was a great course Beni did a great job.


For an outing next weekend , I say for sure ich bin dabei. I saw this on their website:


Erstmals ist das Caliente-Festival zu Gast am Züri Fäscht. Das beliebte karibische Festival mit Bars, Ständen und Livemusik wird auf dem Hafendamm Enge durchgeführt.


I think Katalin should be the one to arange the meeting.


Looking forward to it,


Adam

Dear All


Had a blast at the course (even without being a Beginner anymore). Looking forward to do some Salsa dancing with those who are up for it - as i'm addicted to it.


Can't wait until the Caliente will take plae (at the Zuri Fäscht)! Please keep me posted when and where we going to meet!


Cheers and have a lovely Day,


Claudia

Hi Guys,


I can only repeat what you've already told. It was a fantastic course, with very-very good teachers and nice people :) Looking forward to the next round!


Unfortunately I won't be in the city on the 3rd, but otherwise you can always count on me if it comes to salsa!


I know it's short notice, but what about going tonight to Extra? They have Caliente warm-up party!!!!

Good to read the comments. I went to the class last time (January) and had a lot of fun also. There were some get together/practices after the last class, but unfortunately it stopped after a while. Would be nice to get back into practice if anyone here is interested to continue with Salsa. Mon or Fri nights at Salsa Rica or Wed at Sugar Lounge are good fun!

Hey all,


I organise the glocals Salsa-Weekends in Geneva (below video), and it's great to see that these weekends work well in Zurich too. Danke Ehsaan.


In GVA, after each Salsa-Weekend, we email all participants to ask them if we can share their emails with the rest of the group. Usually, 80% agree. That way, participants can organise going out together to salsa.


Enjoy the summer dancing!


Nir

Hello all again, 


Instead of announcing through the forum we decided with Sonja and Claudia to put up a new activity about the mentioned meetup on 3rd. 


We'll do it later today - it should include more details and some changes in the meeting place. We count on your RSVP/s...
