This venerable lady walks on to the dance floor at the Rooftop, poised, unperturbed by the judging eyes that follow her. You can see she is 60-something. What is she doing here? Does she know what these young people do? Those thoughts seem to cross their minds. She takes a seat and watches the Salseros,…

This Is How It Goes
There's this flagrant thinking when it comes to the dance community, that men are dogs and women are loose, and that it's a free for all when it comes to hooking up. I don't know why it is so: Is it because they see her grinding against a man and then doing it minutes later…
Leave Her With A Smile
There’s a joy I get listening to Kizomba and Cuban Salsa, theres a joy in dancing to the tunes and a joy in watching certain people dance, and I especially like the smile of a appreciation when a lady leaves her partner. There are a few gents that always make their ladies smile, it’s as…
Listen To Find That Release

Allow Me To Lead
I had two bad experiences with the ladies and well, I had to question the role of a follower and that of a leader.
Don’t Miss A Beat
This is aimed at those that want to dance but are AFRAID to take that first step. Learning to dance is fun, just be there.
Come Salsa, It’s Not A Trend
Thabo Moloto started Come Salsa 10 years ago to share his passion for dancing. Since then he has taught more than 100 people to Cuban Salsa.
En Fuego Bringing Bliss
The percussionist is without a doubt the most animated character on stage, and his energy leads the band and excites the crowd too. I see that Cuban Salsa is not just music that requires sweat from Salseros, but the band as well. En Fuego (which means the fire) definitely brings the heat. They seem to…
