Making a musical 9: This salsa is so hoTT - can someone pass the chips please...

So, things are underway for the show, which is next Sunday at the Hackney Empire. With only 3 weeks of practise, it's starting to look really good. We have only next Monday left, and then the show... I think we're trying to get another slot booked for next Saturday; but other than that, it's just one more practise.

The dance is about 5 minutes, which may not seem like much; but when you're doing a routine for 5 minutes straight, and you've only had 4 days of lessons, spread over 4 weeks, it's pretty difficult, not to mention tiring. But, it's sooooooo much FUN! hehe.

Anyway, I digress. What I wanted to write about was our Tuesday (yesterday) class. If you remember, the beginners dance class I'm taking involves a mixture of different dance techniques. So far we have done basic street, musical theatre, and choreography... and last night, we started... yes, that's right: ¡SALSA!

I think the word "fun" doesn't even begin to cover it. I mean... AWESOME would be closer to the mark. I most defo want to do more salsa in the future. We only did a few basics, but already I could feel myself picking it up, and I just don't want to stop.

Yet another set of moves for me to showcase on public transport :D
