La Gomera, Tenerife, Spain: -- Dancing -- teaching a dance like Salsa -- from Oct. 2024 on
ReportLocation: 38800 San Sebastian de La Gomera, Spain
Hello my dears ! We are Boa & Harald, and Harald's dutch dance partner for dance classes.
Help us to teach a new dance like Salsa to everybody at the beach !
The new dance is called Salsita, or Salsa Light --- the little sister of Salsa. A simplified form of Salsa that everyone can learn in a very short time. The step is not 123,pause,567, pause, but just 11111111. Many people already catch it within 3 songs !!! Just as from the opera arises the opereta -- from salsa arises salsita.
With your help !!!
A super nice sponsor kindly makes his motorhome available, which is very simply furnished, but there is all what you need: 2 beds, which are not narrow, can also be combined as a double bed, kitchen with gas stove, refrigerator, solar power, fresh water , Hot water, sink, shower, toilet, all with proper sewage disposal, heater, electricity for Internet, very good network coverage (4G) for Internet. But you can not drive it away.
If you come alone, or as a couple, then you use this, exclusively for you. (if your male partner does not dance, that doesn't matter). When people come in addition, we put up a tent for them, and they use your shower, and your toilet. But not more. If no extra people come, then you have the motorhome for you alone, no bathroom share. --- No matter where you sleep, it's completely free! And you can bring up to 3 more people with you, not important wether female or male, and not important wether they dance or not. It is free for all 4.
Now the catch: you have to be able to dance salsa! Because that's what Salsita builds on. (not important whether Cuban, LA, New York etc.). Average level is enough. Would be nice if you briefly reported how many songs you have danced already, aproximately, etc.
My wife does not mind that; she is not a dancer type person. She gets dizzy at the turns. I am retired (retired - not tired !!!), 1,68 metres. Age 71. German origin.
Please remember: just dance; nothing more ( !!! )
Dancing should be accssible for everybody ! Including handicapped people !
That's why we created Salsita - "Salsa" for everyone !!!! We have been making a similar contribution to the cultural program for many years with a wood engraving workshop and artichoke presentation. Together with the Municipal Cultural Department.
Location: La Gomera Island, neighbor island of Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain.
The whole island is very varied and fantastic for hiking!
Diameter of the island: 25 km. There is a public bus. --- Hitchhiking posible -- not dificult, not easy.
You can stay 1 or 2 weeks! --- Very good dancers up to 6 weeks.
Dancing 14 hours a week. (if that fails because of trips, etc., then please catch up later).
But please dance enthusiasticly - not boring! For example, the way Cubans dance on the street. You need temperament !!! This is more important than strictly according to the rules of the dancing schools.
It should be fun! It should not be considered work.
Please don't forget: just dance; nothing else !!!
Climate: As in Germany in May. (also like a cold May, and rain, possible).
Please do not bring a dog. Sorry, we can not provide the food. Please cook your own food. Very well stocked supermarket very close.
So the Salsita feet ever in the starting holes!
We look forward to seeing you !!!
AVAILABILITY:
From aprox. 22 of October, 2024 until 1 of June, 2025.
Happy to hear from you !!! Boa & Harald --- last update: 3 of Sept, 2024
