November marks my first time teaching and performing in Spain.  I will have a chance to work with  Ana from Sala Latina Kiu in the beautiful coastal city of Malaga offering workshops in Salsa and ChaCha.  Thank you for the invitation Ana and I cannot wait to meet and share my passion with the people of Malaga.

The first Todo Latino Salsa Festival will be held in the Olympic venue of Paleo Faliro, Greece and it will be an Olympic event in itself with a strong line up of instructors, performances and workshops.  And in addition to dancing to the music of some great DJs, I'll also have the honour of dancing to the live music of El Gran Combo and New Swing Sextet.  This is an event you do not want to miss.

The Amsterdam Salsa Festival 2009 is just around the corner and what better way to prepare for it than an intensive Ladies' Styling workshop. Extremos Dance School and I will be offering beginner to advanced workshops on ladies' styling in Amsterdam on December 6th.

On December 13, I will be working with Femke and Manoah of Salsa Tipica Dance School to offer the dancers and students of Nijmegen, The Netherlands workshops on Spin Technique and Ladies' Styling.  It will be a nice preparation for anyone planning on attending the 2009 Amsterdam Salsa Festival.

I am pleased and excited to attend the 2nd Annual Guadalajara Salsa Festival in Guadalajara, Mexico.  The previous year is rumoured to have been a fun and intimate event and this year is expected to be even more entertaining.  There will be workshops and shows by many of Mexico's local talent as well as international instructors in this beautiful and culturally rich city. I can't wait!

It was an intense but salsa-fun-filled weekend at the 10th Anniversary of the Japan Salsa Congress organized by George Watabe, Albert Torres and an outstanding team of volunteers that bent over backward to make sure everything ran smoothly and that everyone felt well taken care of.  It was a great weekend. Thank you to everyone who attended this year's event.  Dance for life!

Back in Singapore for the Singapore International Salsa Festival and what a great time.  The Bronx Horns played an awesome set on Saturday and Sunday night and the performances and workshops were all well attended and awesome to watch.  Great job Quebec Leisure, NTUC and JJ Salsa at putting together a memorable event.

The Houston Salsa Congress was such a fun weekend and for an excellent cause! The workshops were really well attended and the parties this year were much better attended with awesome dancers, performers and DJs.  Jerome, Nathan and Houston Salsa Dancers, you guys did a great job and I look forward to working with you all again.

I have visited the lovely US West Coast many times but the San Diego Salsa Festival was my first time there for a big event.  It was great to spend some time with old friends and meet many new ones.  My workshops were packed and the few dances that I had in the evenings were so much fun.  I can't wait to come back out to the West Coast.

After two years of conversations with Franco, I finally was able to attend the Berlin Salsa Congress and what a great event.  It was one of the best congresses that I've attended and mainly because the instructors, performers, DJs and the attendees were all great people to be around so the whole weekend felt like being around good friends. See you all again next year.
