- How and when did you get introduced to Salsa?
I was first introduced to Salsa in 2003 in Dubai at a Dance-a-thon event. Salsa was one of the dance forms taught. And when I shifted to Bombay it was Bohemia and Zenzi!
- How were you inspired you to continue dancing? And for how many more years would you be dancing Salsa?
First of all the Latino Music is something that stands out from the usual styles. I have been religiously hooked to Salsa Parties and workshops happening around the city. So don’t this there is any reason to stop dancing!
- Who do you think one should look out for in the Mumbai Salsa scene and a brilliant dancer?
Kaytee Namgyal – SIDC
How long have you been dancing Salsa and which is you other favorite Latin dances?
2 years of Salsa. And I have been dancing Bachata and Zouk recently.
- What difference has Salsa made to your life?
Salsa Socials have added a new way of dancing and enjoying the music. Sundays have definitely become more interesting.
- What do you think about the Salsa Parties happening in Mumbai? For eg. Zenzi, Rio, and dragonfly.
Like I said Zenzi is definitely the hot spot for Mumbaikars to shake a leg @ Salsa on a Sunday evening! I think more and more venues would make salsa totally an addiction!
- How many congresses in India and around the world have you attended?
I have attended the Dance-a-thon (Dubai), Salsa India Dance festivals since last 3 years, Bangalore Salsa Festival and the recent Goa Salsa festival.
How would you rate the Salsa India Congress (by Salsa India) and the India International Salsa Congress (by lvds)?
Both are good in their own ways.
India International Salsa Congress (by lvds) need better venues for parties.
But since I live in Mumbai, I prefer Salsa India Congress (by Salsa India).
- What do you think about Mumbai Salsa Meet up? Do you think Iam doing a good job by reviewing dance school and instructors? Any suggestions on how to make the community and the Sa Sa Salsaaaa website better?
IF I can think of Salsa in Mumbai, Manoj was the first person I spoke to when I joined the Salsa Meet up group. Definitely he is been supporting the whole salsa movement for quite sometimes now. This website shows his true passion for Salsa
