Forums > Living in Kunming > Salsa dancing in Kunming? Glad to hear the positive responses! I agree it's a small floor but they will move tables aside and maybe off the floor (some tables look extremely big and heavy and may not be movable). Wednesdays should be less crowded and give us more space. I'll check with Mark about starting lessons at 8PM and then dancing from 9PM-11PM or later since it is a weekday. If things work out well, we can have another gathering soon and go even later.
Forums > Living in Kunming > Salsa dancing in Kunming? Spoke to Mark last night. There have been Brazilian and other latin type parties successfully held at the Hump. He's willing to let us set up a salsa night anytime except tues & thurs (when he has his own house band playing).
Are there preference to doing this on the weekend (fri/sat night) or on a quieter night such as wed or sunday? If no feedback within the next couple of days, I'll ask Mark about promoting next wednesday, June 2.
Forums > Living in Kunming > Salsa dancing in Kunming? I prefer to just dance but if there's enough interest, I could teach a basic class say before a Hump salsa party...for FREE! Although I'm not a professional instructor, I have taught informally and have danced over 10 years mostly in San Francisco, Singapore, and Sydney.
I'll talk to Mark or someone else at the Hump about their venue and see how they can help spread the word on the next party.
Forums > Living in Kunming > Salsa dancing in Kunming? I just flew into Kunming last weekend and have enough salsa, merengue, bachata, and cha cha music to get a party started. Let me know when and where.
