Hi all!

I have the emails of 10 people and it was uncomfortable to copy/paste all each time that I send you an email so, when I saw that the people from the tango lessons already created a google mailing list for sending the emails when they go out, I decided to create one. Yyou can also send emails here or just to the list of people we had, it's equivalent.

For the moment, I send you here some places to go out to dance salsa in Geneva!

* Salseros de hoy organizes open air free salsa dancing in the parks of Perle du Lac (Wednesdays) and English Garden (Saturdays, so today!): http://www.salsa-geneve.com
  • Les soirées en plein air de la Perle du Lac !
    Les mercredis du 6 juin au 10 juillet 2012  Plus d'infos ››
  • Les soirées en plein air du Jardin Anglais !
    Les samedis du 2 juin au 7 Juillet 2012  Plus d'infos ››

* At MaD there is salsa-only parties on Thursdays night from 22h (cheap, ~7 chf) and for rock'n roll + salsa on Wednesdays from 20h (for free): http://www.mad.coop/event/

I know some other places, but they are all very small and I don't recommend them... If you know anyone else, feel free to propose!

About the videos, they are still in my camera :P I promise I will send them soon! :)

Cheers,

Juan


PD: for the 2 persons that gave me their emails last, the other videos I have I put them in this secret link https://docs.google.com/folder/d/0B18w7C9_Vp6QWU9CekY4aHA5YnM/edit

PD2: tonight I cannot go to the English Garden party because I'm going to this other salsa+rock party: http://www.rocknrollswing.com

News: yesterday I found by chance a new place. Every Sunday evening at
Parc de Bastions, in the cafe aside the giant chess boards!

Bad: it's not free (10 chf) and everybody except me was dancing Cuban
salsa there :P (I didn't notice that the music was different so I was
dancing with my friends the one of our club, Puerto Rican salsa).

Good: with the entrance you get a free drink, the place is nice, has a
big terrace so it is not so hot, and there was not too many people.

Cheers,
Juan

Hi all, 

Actually I was there last Wednesday from 8:30pm to 10pm. Did not see any of you! Luckily I came across some ex-CERN salsa dancers who had followed a 2-week course in cuban salsa. I won't go tomorrow, but here are a few tips:
If you do want to dance, be there at 8 pm. No-one dares to start, then at 9pm the dance floor is unbelievably crowded.

PS. I received the notification that MAD is organising rock& salsa evenings on Wednesdays, but do they carry on during the summer?

Enjoy the dance,
 
Anne

Next time you tell us! Past Wednesday everybody decided not to go at
the very last minute so I also didn't go :P

And you are right, by chance I passed by there few weeks ago after 22h
and I can tell you it was almost impossible to dance, I have never
seen a place so crowded in Geneva!! Well, we could dance in the normal
ground, but almost could not enter into the wooden floor of the dance.
Also, I can tell you that ALL people there was dancing Cuban salsa...
that is why I decided not to go if I don't know of anyone of you going
for sure.

About MaD, I know about that. In winter I went many times to the
Wednesdays rock'n roll parties and it is true that they put a lot of
salsa as well. But... I checked their website now and they removed all
information about soirees :( Also, I checked for their facebook page
for news and found out that the place does not exist anymore!!! :(

Tonight, leaving from Cern at around 19h30 or better offer?
Juan

Hi All,
Are you all going to be there tonight ? I am willing to revise all the
figures we have learned so far, so I was thinking to take our video
clips as a crib sheet ;) Will any female-dancer join the event ? I use
to be in place later, but taking into account your remarks, I could try
to be present around 8pm.
Let me know.

Cheers,
Adrian
