Welcome.. to the 2008 Kent Salsa Festival website. If you did not register with us for the 07 Festival then do so now! As from Jan 08 we will be offering you a chance each Month to win 2 tickets to the 08 Festival, but only if you register. I am pleased to announce that we have a few exclusives to the festival such as the BEGINNERS JOURNEY workshops, Cardio Striptease and the Open South East Salsa Dance Championships to name but a few. Plus our very own SUMMER LOVING fancy dress party on the Saturday night of the Festival. For the last 2 years the Festival has enjoyed only one day of dancing. Now in its 3rd year we have extended it to a full weekend of unbridled fun, laughter and sheer enjoyment for all.
Leon
Festival organiser
from around the UK and Europe who will be hosting fantastic workshops and performing some unbelievable shows throughout the 2 days. We have confirmed most of our artists for the Festival. Some well known, some not so but equally just as talented. The workshop timetable will be released early June. Where selected we have advised you to book certain workshops in advance.
With our carefully planned syllabus, you will enjoy five hours of fun and encouragement; you will feel that you are literally on a journey of discovery as you experience selected dance subjects such as salsa, merengue, bachata, cha cha, musicality and a little dance history.
The flexible agenda means you can choose whether to take all five hours in one day or spread them over the two days, building your knowledge and confidence along the way.
We know how daunting these events can be so let us put you at ease!
So if you,ve had no experience at all or have taken only 1 or 2 lessons elsewhere and want to enjoy the atmosphere an event like this can bring without feeling intimidated. Click below to find out more about THE BEGINNERS JOURNEY workshop including prices.
