New Petrol Price RM 2.70
Just got news that the new price willbe RM 2.70, a rise or 0.78cents for ULG 97 ( the ones we normally use )
ULG 92 will increase 0.74cents while diesel will increase RM 1. So my fellow dancing friends, time to go fill them up before midnight tonight and i guess for those really effected, we should consider car pooling to out regular salsa night out, plus its safer too to go in groups. You decide.

FloorPlay - make sure you indulge in lots of it

The idea of this project is to encourage you to bring out your natural flare and style while dancing. If you are the kind who likes to imitate some’s moves or constantly busting out moves of your own, we want to showcase you. Bust a move on the dance floor and get a friend to capture it on video. You’ll stand a chance to be voted as the Favourite FloorPlayer.
Step 1.
Just capture yourself or your friend with any video camera. Try to keep the video below 3min.
Upload on youtube.com and email me the link.
Alternatively you may also email to me at mambojays@gmail.com
Log on to mambojays.com and start voting.
This project starts from April 1st till May 31th
Absolutely anybody can be part of this project. Just dance any form of latin dance either in clubs, streets, or at parties. Just capture it and post them here. For now we will focus the type of dance to LATIN influenced ( Cha Cha, Merengue, Salsa, Bachata, Rumba, Tango etc, )

I Will Follow You - Real Close
Its great to dance with some one who follows well and yet keeping it in control and timing without switching on the AUTOPILOT or DESPERATE MODE.
AUTOPILOT MODE
You'll find yourself about to lead a move which look familiar to her, before you know it, she gone, did it, finito, she has just lead herself . This is true is many moves like Cross Body Lead, The dreaded Self Dip, Turns.
DESPERATE MODE
Sometimes when you dance with the ladies, you'll find some of them really eager to grab your hands, hold your shoulders, or any parts of your body or follow too closely. I wonder why?
Well at times its good to just wait for a lead and keep a good space between the two of you to comfortably express your dance movements. When you violate each other's space or each other, one should expect some extra body contact. This is what happens when you ladies follow too close :
SMACK ! right behing my car.
Yes, thats my humble ride, recently got smack by ladies. On my way to work I heard a loud 'bang' and before I can process the sound, a second 'bang' came, this time my body was thrown forward with a light whipped lashed. Its was a 3 car accident where 2 lovely ladies ( Doctor & Professor ) came out stunned.
So if you don't want any parts of your body to look like the above pic, its really good to concentrate and focus on each while dancing, or you'll might get SMACKED.
note : Salsa Dancing is not a dangerous sport. its, FUN
