Our Review:
The party starts on Thursday night at Cafe Cocomo, with dancing from 8pm-2am. The event begins in earnest on Friday night, with dance performances and competitions from 8pm-10:30pm, and dancing until 2am. Saturday features workshops from 9am-4pm, followed by more dance performances and dancing until 2am.
This year's performers and instructors include 3-time On2 World Champions David & Paulina, 2-time World Champions Grizzly & Alien, 2012 World Latin Dance Cup Champions Omar & Nina and more!
The San Francisco Salsa Festival is one of my favorite events of the year, and the 5th year promises to be bigger than ever!
