Giving Up Salsa…For Now


Every year around this time, I go on a salsa fast. I give up most of my salsa nights in exchange for summer fun in the sun and activities that “regular” people (non-salseros) do.

Remember that? When we used to go to the movies on a Tuesday, not dance…when we used to go to clubs where the most impressive dance move was keeping your balance after the fifth shot of tequila...when we blasted the beats in the car driving up to the cottage instead of bachata…

It doesn’t mean I hate salsa. A salsa fast brings me back refreshed and excited to dance, and helps me appreciate the music so much more.

What’s the longest amount of time you’ve gone without dancing?
