DESCRIPTION |
Carlos Hernandez and Arlette Guerra founded Zafire Dance Project a few
years ago after performing in several top NYC pro teams such as
Karisma and Yamulee.
The are well-known for their intense and energetic dancing style and have
quite quickly become known in the NYC mambo community and also at national
and international salsa congresses and festivals.
They invite all the tri-state mambo dancers to this special anniversary
party which is well-attended by salseros of all levels, where they play
excellent music and where there are performances by several dance teams.
This is a classic "uptown style social" with plenty of Latino flavor being
brought downtown for everyone to come and enjoy.
This event is held in the very large Manhattan Ballroom Dance studio where
some of our On 2
events have been held in the past. The dance floor is huge with
plenty of room for all the dancers. It is a professional-level
wooden floor that is "medium speed".
