| DESCRIPTION |
This pure salsa social is presented by
Marcus Nieves of
MDN Latin Dance Studio in New
Jersey. Marcus
has been a performer and instructor in our NY/NJ mambo scene for years.
In the past he performed with “Fuerza Latina Dancers” in
many events around the tri-state area, which provided him the exposure he
needed to be recognized in the dance scene. In 2000, Marcus began
dancing under Nelson Flores and
his dance team “Descarga Latina Dance Company” which opened the
opportunity for him to take part in the off-Broadway show
“Latin Madness”. In late 2002, Marcus worked as one of the “Copa
Boys” for the world famous
“Copacabana” and in 2003 he become a member of the
“Eddie Torres Dance Company”
for which he continues to dance and tour around the world.
This social is a meeting place for dancers of all levels to party to
the sounds of classic DJ Ray Colon
and to hang out with other partners and dancers who share the same passion
for dancing mambo.
