Hello Classmates,

Well, the summer is winding down and you may have noticed a bit of relief from the here-to-fore scorching daytime temperatures.   But, there's a little left (queda poco), so let's make the most of it.  In the spirit of celebration, I was hoping  the class might get together to help celebrate Marlene's upcoming birthday!

Some may know that on Thursdays Marline hosts the festivities at Time Out Market, 55 Water St. 11201, in Dumbo on the 5th Floor.
Get your salsa on for free every Thursday from 6:30-9:30pm on the fifth floor of the Time Out Market. Instructor Marlene Veras will lead you through the steps to beats by percussionist Ronnie Roc for a solid foundation before you break out into a full-on salsa dance party with tunes from DJ Ray Suave. ¡Bailemos!
The activities are free, and the setting is quite enjoyable.  One or two of us have acknowledged our birthdays there in the past.  It would be a great opportunity to see familiar faces and catch up, for both the newer students as well as  the veterans from years back.

So, I'm callin' y'all out..., Will, Amy, Karen, Chris, Koko, and everybody else who we haven't seen or heard from in a minute.

Holla' and let me know if you'll be coming through....


Rob

Thanks for the replies thus far.  The class Marlene conducts starts at 6:30, and the social dancing begins maybe 45 minutes after.  Everyone is busy, so I wouldn't want to be too strict with the timing.  It would be nice if everyone could be there by 8p.

Hi everyone!
Thanks for sharing Rob.

 Just an update about the salsa event hosted 
by Time Out. 
•6:30pm Dj plays music for 30 minutes; anyone is welcome to social dance during this time.
•7:00-7:30pm I teach a basic salsa lesson (sometimes salsa on 1 or on 2 or both styles).
• 7:30pm floor is open to social dance again. 
DJ usually plays salsa, bachata, merengue+ music until 9:30pm.

Looking forward to dance with anyone who can attend!
*Note: I will arrive to Timeout around 6:55pm. 

Best,
Marlene

Marlene, thanks for the clarification.   Everyone should now have a useful sketch of the evening's timetable.  Looking forward to seeing you all!

Hi there!
I had planned to join and was looking forward to seeing you all. Unfortunately, I have been feeling under the weather today so it didn't seem great to come out.

Hope it was a fun Bday celebration and I will try to get to a social soon!

Dana

Dana, Olta, Amy, and everyone else who couldn't make it, we missed you!  We had a good time at Time Out Market and hope to see you on the floor, somewhere, before the summer is done.  I am sure pictures will be posted soon and you'll be able to share the joy.  Dana, feel better.
