Dear friends, there I so much dancing news today that I decided to send my weekly email right away. First I want to remind you that you can always get more details about any of these events at www.SantaRueda.com Second, I want to thank Chris Allen and his salsa rueda friends in Bernalillo for the fun workshop last week.  I look forward to continuing sharing and connecting the different rueda communities in the state and elsewhere.  Third, there is a NEW Salsa Band, Changui Son, gearing up/practicing to enter the Latin Dance Music scene in Santa Fe.  The band will be auditioning tonight, Monday, April 13^th @ El Farol Restaurant, at 8:00pm The band would like to invite everyone to come and check them out and support their music/effort/intentions.  The cover is FREE! Finally, check out, in the UPCOMING EVENTS list, the awesome Salsa Rueda Workshops coming up in Tulum Mexico in July2009, with Sid and Rayn.  A group of us are planning on attending and you are more than welcome to join us.  The instructors and the setting are just great.
