| DESCRIPTION |
The "GE Men", consisting of fellow salseros
DJ Gary B and
Mr. SOS Edison
Hidalgo, present this
classic salsa social held in a big comfortable space with the capacity for
a lot of couples happily dancing together. There's room for plenty of dancers plus
chairs surrounding the dance floor for relaxing and socializing. They
have created this event to appeal to the pure On 2 salsa lovers, so they can
have a downtown venue to dance in and hang out with other salseros.
The crowd is nicely diverse in terms of age, their dance background, where
they live, how long they've been on our NY salsa scene, but they all have
one thing in common: they love mambo dancing. The "GE Men" have both
been on the scene for quite a while and attend the events of several
different On 2 studios, and their goal is to bring everyone together for a
great night of dancing. On some nights,
they'll be offering a salsa class by a guest instructor and usually a
performance by a local mambo team, all this to attract dancers from all
over. These would be posted on our
Main Calendar or the flyer above.
