With a huge bank holiday weekend of parties and workshops nearly upon us, there is going to be a lot of exhausted dancers looking to chill out on Monday.

For new readers and members, I'd mention that www.londonsalsa.co.uk contains a wealth of activities and this newsletter merely acts as an appetiser. 

London enjoys many visitors this month, who join our thriving throng on the dance floor. I don't have to remind you, but will, that part of the recipe that makes salsa so addictive, is that anyone can invite anyone to share a dance to any track. So this week, salseros and salseras, I encourage you to dance with a stranger.

Bank holidays are a perfect opportunity to take up cuban, crossbody or cali style salsa or to brush up on your skills.
