I learned most of the Latin dances when living in Mexico in early 90s. I cant tell you how many times being able to dance in these clubs as a gringo has gotten me laid. Last night I was the oldest guy in the club for New Years I think...and I got a lot of nice smiles and nods from attractive strangers while dancing with my Colombiana. The Latins are truly shocked by gringos who can dance latin and speak some spanish. These two talents that can be learned will save you thousands in P4P down here. I heartily recommend learning and practicing Salsa and Merengue for socialization in Latin America. Plus...its great exercize...might add a few years to your healthy existance.
Absolutely - I've let my Salsa lessons lapse a bit, but still find I can put some of what I learned to use in Key Largo and elsewhere, and it always makes for a fun evening.
Hey - maybe if we're lucky, "El Gordo" - the Key Largo legend - will begin offering lessons one of these days...
