UPDATED - Singapore International Salsa Festival 2007

Singapore International Salsa Festival 2007
is confirmed for 19 Oct to 21 Oct!

I copied this from JJ's website....haha... and yes, there's no other details...And it's 7 months away....
*Don't box me....Argh!!! Bish!!Stop hitting me *

Ok, dunno what will happen to us all 7 months down the road...
but i went to this salsa fest last year and it was great fun..alot of workshops!! it was the time when us founding forum members are just at Beginners or 1.5?!!
I still recall our class met up to dance.. End up, kenna stepped on , elbowed and throttled by swinging salsa dancers...
And yes, it was the same event where i came bk to brag I was in the World's Largest Rueda circle (got tshirt for that!!).. and i only knew 10 calls!

So anyway, if i am still arun within this next 7 months, will update this post with details on the salsa fest. And maybe we can all sign up to go... What better place to start attending such congress/fest events than in our own Spore? And if it's still at downtown east, maybe we can go tog and book chalet n bbq after salsa & eat until we puke ....hee hee hee..

wow... thanks danielle... sounds like alot of fun....

7months later if im still around, i will surely go for it! (never been one mah hahahaha) time to get myself exposed to events like that i guess hahahaha :P:P bbq and chalet will make the whole outing complete hahahahahaha MUST DO!

yes, danielle keep us posted till the dates arrived hahahaha

I was there last year too! I was only like, in the Beginning of I2 then, My legs ache after the whole party. 3 whole nights of non-stop salsaing and 2 days of workshops whole day with only 1 hour break!... Too much variety! too little time!...

hahahaha i better build up my stamina for it then hahahaha :P:P

If anyone's interested, You can book a chalet which i suggest would be sensible to do because it's downtown east and you wun not want to drag your feet home after one whole day and night of dancing.

Yo yo count me in too. Cheers.

THE BIG QUESTION First: who is going? :p:p:p

Sorry guys, Haven been up to Forum, Terribly lost...
As i was mentioning to some of us last week...
NTUC seem to have an offer to get the tics even cheaper so wait for news from them (Nic, pls update soon)
