Since 1977 Mexican Fiesta brings a taste of Mexico to Milwaukee.

With breathtaking entertainers such as Alejandra Guzman, Mariachi Vargas de Tecalitlan, Montez De Durango, Ramon Ayala and many more! We please your taste buds with Milwaukee’s very own exquisite Mexican cuisine from El Campesino, Tres Hermanos, and many other wonderful local restaurants. Mexican Fiesta has become an enormous success with the help of the community and the thousands of people who attend this incredible festival.

So plan on gathering up your family and friends, and joining us for all the FUN at the 31st annual Festa Italiana, July 17-20, 2008.

In addition, the Wedding Special page now includes several examples of what you could do as a first dance at your wedding reception. Creating a unique first dance has become quite popular. So much, in fact, that the TLC Network is premiering a new show called “Rock the Reception” about couples who “turn their first dance into an unforgettable production number!”

Enjoy!

However, we do not have a good way to gauge how many people may be interested in such a class. That is what this post is for.

We envision a ten-week class, meeting for 75 minutes each week and costing $125/person, in which the focus will be primarily on partnering, musical interpretation, in-class performances (for the other class participants), movement technique, and unlocking your individual and combined creativity.

We will work in the context of American Style Rhythm (cha cha / rumba / swing / bolero / mambo), though not exclusively. The partnering and interpretation principles are appropriate for every style of partner dancing (Smooth / Standard / Rhythm / Latin).

Past partner dance experience is definitely a good idea. If there is overwhelming demand for an introductory-level class, then only minimal dance experience will be expected. If we offer an advanced-level class, then considerable dance experience will be required.

You should plan to enroll with a partner (a friend / neighbor / roommate / romantic partner / dance partner) as the class material will be heavily geared toward creating interesting dancing with a partner. Leads, if you have no partner, you are encouraged to enroll anyway. Many ballroom dance classes attract more follows than leads. Leads, your enrollment means that individual follows may enroll and have a partner available in class.

Family-oriented Hispanic festival. Authentic food, music, folklore dancing and cultural entertainment.

This Group Class will meet each Sunday from 7:00 - 8:15 pm, beginning 8 June 2008 and running until 3 August 2008, for a total of eight sessions. There will be no class on Sunday, 22 June.

In this 75-minute class meeting for a total of eight sessions, we will discover how to produce many of the common dance moves you see at nightclubs where people dance Salsa.

We will be working with the Miami or Cubano style of Salsa, featuring many turns and spins for both the leads and the follows. Building on a simple set of common moves, we will continue to explore good lead and follow connections, inventiveness, and fluidity in Salsa dancing.

The class will emphasize creating a solid constant connection between the lead and follow, and how to use that connection throughout the entire dance and in every move that we create! We will use a simple set of common moves to explore good lead and follow connections, inventiveness, and fluidity in Salsa dancing.

Improve your own balance and learn to recognize how each partner influences the balance of the other. Develop an understanding of how you move your own body and how those movements are felt and interpreted by your partner. (Applies to leads and follows alike.) Build the fundamentals for creating good partner connections and for leading and following well. Exercise those fundamentals to invent your own moves!

This class is designed for dancers who have had some experience with Salsa, and will move at an appropriate pace. Enroll to improve your sense of partner connection and refine your body action and basics…and learn some fun new moves!

You do not need to enroll with a partner. Expect frequent partner changes and numerous group activities and exercises.

Please, no Street Shoes on the dance floor. Dance shoes, dance sneakers, or stocking feet are all fine.

Pre-registration is required. Contact the Instructor to reserve space in this class.
