Arren's Salsa Dancing Journal

Welcome to my Salsa Dancing Journal. Here's where I'll keep my thoughts, experiences, and ideas of my salsa dancing life.

Soon, I'll have been dancing for over 6 years. I must've met hundreds of people and danced countless hours. I've never kept track of my salsa dancing experiences, so it'll be interesting to see how much salsa is a part of my life.

Brett and Arren

Brett and Me at La Luna

When I first started dancing salsa, I remember seeing the advanced performance group perform. When I saw them dance, I knew that I wanted to be a part of their group. Unfortunately, when I got to the level that was good enough to join the group, I found myself in the midst of other obligations in my life. I know it would take a big commitment to join a performance group of that level, so I had to pass up several offers. One day... One day...

Ok.. Enough banter. Here starts a long line of links to my first salsa journal.

My Salsa Journal was too cumbersome to update as evidence by the lack of posts. A new Salsa Blog has been created to take the place of my journal. Visit Salsa Blog for Salsa Dancing Addict.
