Casino de Rueda - Cuban Salsa

2007 has been a big year for many things, including a ridiculous amount of Cuban salsa dancing. I started taking lessons with the local group here, Rumbanana, run by Mike (white shirt) and Simona (far left), back in February. It's been one hell of a party ever since, since I've been taking classes or dancing as much as 3-4 nights a week.

This crew throws the best parties in town. Most amazing part is, Mike and Simona built the group from the ground up, starting classes within the last year, and now they have a huge group of followers. Their group, Rumbanana, even won first place at the 2007 Cuba Baila in Vancouver B.C. See video at their website.

If you want to see video of my silly self trying to dance (from one of our practices), go here.
