Salsa on the News!

 

Feel the Heat With Salsa Dancing (June 20, 2007 News 8 Austin)

 

Recommendations (2008):

 

Marion,

 

I want to thank you personally for teaching the dance workshop on Tuesday. The whole day was a huge success and one of the highlights for the students was your workshop. They had a terrific time, and I have heard wonderful things.

 

Thank you SO much for helping with this celebration and sharing your talents. I appreciated it, and I know the students did too.

 

Sincerely,

Rebecca Yacono

St. Andrew's Upper School

Marion,
 
Amber & I want to thank you for the great time you provided for us Saturday before last.  I'm sorry it took so long to make it happen and appreciate your willingness to do it so long after ACL had passed.  The salsa lesson was a lot of fun and you were fantastic with Amber.  The next day Amber & I took off for the Austin Children's Museum and she found your name on the plaque on the side of the building ;-)
 
If you start another dance troupe for girls her age, as we discussed, please let us know.  Hopefully, you will be at ACL again this year - we will look for you!

Jeff Hewgley

Father of Amber (6 years old)

* Just to add to Barbara's comments: I really enjoyed the social last night. Beautiful spacious place with wood floors and a huge screen with salsa dancing. Music was great and parking was free and accessible.

Thank you Marion for putting this together and also thanks to Valarie and Linda for their assistance and helpful hand.

See you in the next social!

* Marion and Friends did a TOP job organizing this event and, Austin, we are blessed to be able to enjoy this space, music, company, and 100% Salsa dancing once a month from here on.

Lots of fun dancers, friends, and new faces alike. What a Great time!! Plus the floor, acoustics, and big screen are Fabulous!!

It's only going to grow from here! I'd venture to guess 100-150 people attended. Most of the best teachers in town were on hand for social dancing too as teachers, team-members and assistant teachers can attend free (see Marion's full post for this and more discount details: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SalsaNewsAustin/message/1216 ).

Thanks so much for your hard work Marion, Fabian, Valarie, and Linda and for making 100% Salsa happen. You did a great job. Someone said it sounded like a live band as they were walking up from outside.

I also heard great feedback from meetup members about your class, Marion. Nice work! Already really looking forward to the next one 10/2.

One more big Thanks Silvio for encouraging the hard-core crowd to keep dancing to the Brew at over Copa afterwards with a special Hand Stamp discount entry. You're Austin's best Salsa ally!
