Baltimore Salsa Blog

Got friends? Do you know how many members we have in the Baltimore Salsa Meetup? 1,250. Now this is something the organizers are very proud of. Of course, this isn’t a popularity contest and not every dancer in Baltimore is a member. We understand. In fact, the higher the membership, the harder we must work for you and the more hosts we add to the mix. At this rate, you might think we’d ask you to slow down on your pursuit to persuade family, friends and co-workers to join you on the dance floor. On the contrary. The more dancers we have, the more venues we secure, the more friends that we make, and the more time we spend doing something that we really love - dancing. So, again I ask, “Got friends?” Bring them with you to our Meetup at Sammy’s Trattoria this week. There’s always room for more enthusiastic people just like you. For everything else on the schedule, keep reading.
