Rueda also has
the effect of increasing the dancers’ sphere of awareness. To dance
rueda, one has to be very alert- to the commander who calls the shots as
well as to the other couples in the circle. by Matthew Sng click

Taiwan
Salsa Festival 2006
Juz came back from Taiwan... Superb place! Lots of food, clothes, frenly
ppl... The Taiwan Salsa Fest was a great blast! It was small, but real
cosy. We met Israel and Juan Carlos who are both really fantastic Cuban
dancers. They way they isolate their shoulders and bodies just make you
gulp... and drool. The great thing about taking part in overseas
festivals is that you get to see the different ways........

On
Judging for the AC Dance Salsa Examinations... Fair? Or unfair?
click here
I heard some comments about the judging criteria for the salsa exams.
I'd like to say one thing from my previous experience in Ballet
examinations. Our ballet examiners are brought in from overseas (mostly
from UK) to judge in the different schools. They are always different
people, and they all have their own marking preferences. I recall my
ballet teacher saying things like, "this examiner likes expression", or
"this examiner is very strict on technique"...

The Jitterbugs Competition was great fun... Man, the fight was a damn
tight one... I think most of the contestants could easily have won...
It's so close, I'm glad that I wasn't judging. Sheesh! It was tough man.
Way to go my fellow Xen ppl! I think you all did a superb job,
considering that most of you are still so new to dancing. heehee.............
