Dear Isaac,
|
|
|
Welcome to the 2006 World Salsa
Championships
On behalf of the Board of Directors
of the World Salsa Federation, Inc., I
would like to welcome everyone to the
2006 World Salsa Federation
Championships. This year I am sure we
will celebrate with record attendance at
our wonderful facility, the Miccosukee
Resort and Gaming in Miami Florida.
During the exciting weekend, the WSF
has put together a fantastic array of
Salsa experts in almost every style
imaginable. With workshops being offered
from beginners through advanced levels,
and dance parties every night, meeting
new people and making new friends will
be unavoidable.
If this is a return visit for you, we
are glad you have chosen to join us
again this year. If you are a first time
attendee, we hope you will enjoy all
that the Miccosukee Resort and Gaming
facilities have to offer, and will make
this an annual pilgrimage.
The WSF is committed to providing new
inroads in Salsa worldwide from
certifying teachers, giving awards to
amateurs for excellence, training
certified Judges, and having a basis for
Salsa as a sport as well as a
recreational activity. The WSF is proud
to have Salsa and its syllabus as the
official syllabus for the AAU Junior
Olympic Games.
This year, the World Salsa Federation
will host a world record 10 World Salsa
Championships! Over 2 days, competitors
will have an opportunity to be World
Champions in their style and then go
head to head for the title of Undisputed
World Salsa Champion. The Undisputed
World Salsa Champions will represent the
best of Salsa competitive dancing, and
will represent the WSF world-wide. Also
included this year for the second time
ever, will be the World Youth Salsa
Championships. The youth come to this
event with unsurpassed energy and
enthusiasm. Come watch them compete as
these young people will be our future
Salsa Stars!! |

Isaac and Laura (founders of the WSF)
win $5000 in dance contest on the TV
show Dimelo Bailando and are crowned
GRAND CHAMPIONS! Over 70 teams
competed!
Spanish Broadcasting System
Launches New U.S. Hispanic Television
Channel, MEGA TV
Dímelo Bailando: The dance contest
takes center stage as we witness
couples vying for the crown as South
Florida’s top dancers. “Dímelo
Bailando” is about passion, skill,
rhythm and the desire (and talent!) to
be the very best. Each week 10 couples
start elimination trials until only
one remains as the pulse-pounding
competition reaches its zenith during
finals. The final week brings all the
champions back for a tournament that’s
bound to have everyone on the edge of
their seats wondering who will win the
ultimate prize!

Due to the large amounts of emails we get
each week requesting where to take dance
lessons, where to go dancing and inquiries
on performance groups, the WSF is opening
a page to list such information.
The WSF World Guide will help the dance
enthusiast to find exactly what they are
searching for. It is now in construction
but will be an ongoing project. If you
want to be listed, please contact the WSF.

The first WSF Dance Party and Showcase
held last week was a complete success!
Willie Panama wowed the audience with 3 of
his songs on his new CD. The performances
were outstanding, ranging from Salsa,
Samba, Tango, and a troupe doing a
Polynesian show! The general dancing was
superb with music provided by DJ Matos.
Come join us for our next one on Saturday,
May 20th!
Our winner of the Ipod Nano is Mr.
Emile Derek Boyle from Burke, Va.
Congratulations!!
