Salsa... again

I'm going to start up the salsa group on campus again (shortly)... with some obvious help from peeps on campus. The teaching was good... I'm not the best at salsa, but the people that come to the lessons are much worse than I am (probably shouldn't be saying this...). The funnest part was... PANGAEA!

We (Leo Joanna and I) were on the fence about PANGAEA for a while. On the final day of auditions, Leo went for it with Joanna and did some freestyle salsa with a random song. The judges decided they were good enough.... so we needed to start putting together a routine. We had two weeks. We were frantically trying to put together a routine, get music, figure out costumes, etc. We would have practice sessions during lunch in the hallways at school almost every day during those two weeks. Once a song was decided upon, the routine needed to be made up and taught. We had auditions for positions, and we ended up having four couples. Here's the final show:


Note: I was nervous as hell on stage! I made like 5 pretty big mistakes, but it was still fun!
