Details

Join us for a night of dancing, making new friends and having a good time at Aztec Willie's best night of the month! So you don't know how to dance? No problem! Beginners salsa lesson at around 9:30pm. There is no cover charge ($5) if you get there before 9:30pm.

Aztec Willie's is also a restaurant so you could always grab something to eat or get something to drink as you wait for the lesson.

All ladies that join this event are GUARANTEED to dance even if they never danced in their life so this is a beginner friendly event.

Fellas, there will be a lot of beginner ladies out there for you to meet and practice your dancing with so come join us!

Brandon Ayala who got 3rd place in the Salsa World Championship event in Miami this year will be performing (his second third place finish). He is only 12 years old so make sure you stay for his performance so you can say you saw him perform before he became famous. ;)

Ladies, say yes to anyone that asks you to dance remember in Latin dancing everyone dances with everyone. Fellas if you see a lady waiting for a dance go and ask her to dance!

This event is cross promoted so expect a diverse mix of people. I try my best to introduce people to each other
