Hi to all you salsa addicts,
Just wanted to thank you all for giving Rachelle a fantastic salsa send off last Thursday! I know it meant a lot to her, and it was very hard to say goodbye for everyone. I would ask you all to still send her lots of love through facebook, :o).
Just a reminder, there is no salsa this Thursday the 26th. We continue next week at the Master Mariner on the 3rd of Decemeber as normal.
Salsa Pimente crimbo party will be on the 10th. Show and guest to be confirmed. Fancy dress as always with a Christmas theme. Santa, snow men, reindeer, little santa helpers etc. Plus lots and lots of tinsel!!!! (mark of honour to Rachelle)
Many thanks.
Anthony.
The Clave is the backbone of salsa music, fundamental for timing, it is heard on the beats 2,3,5&8. The & stands for the syncopated beat in-between the 6 and 7. Two beats for the first bar, three for the second bar, then repeated through the song. Listen next time you’re on the floor. :o)
If that doesn't make much sense then watch the clip below from 1:50 and it should all become clear!
