we went salsa dancing several weekends ago. it was totally fun and now i want to take lessons. arturo and cristian spun me around the floor for a couple of songs and patiently worked with me on the steps as i moved just like a gringa would. no, just kidding, i've got rhythm in there somewhere.
these salsa joints come alive at 12:30/1am. the floors are packed and it was certainly intimidating to walk out onto them knowing i was no pro. my feet were completely stepped on. but it's not like what you might think. in a salsa situation, if your feet are getting stepped on, you are the one who's messing up.
it was comforting to know that even chileans take salsa lessons. now i won't feel as ashamed the next time i step into a dance studio, ready to learn from the pros.
