Salsa
Dancers Respond to Deadly Natural Disaster Victims
|

|
Web
of Compassion, Inc, a Princeton-based non-profit organization,
with its slogan, "DANCE 4 GOOD", spearheads a fund raiser, bringing
together salsa dance professionals, teachers, and musicians to
support victims of the recent devastating four near-simultaneous
calamities in Asia Pacific- typhoon Ketsana with its torrential
rains flooding Philippines and Vietnam in South East Asia, and
a strong earthquake followed by a tsunami in American Samoan islands.
The calamities have taken lives from across the region and have
deeply sowed destructions of properties, economic hardships, devastations
and chaos. The struggles continue as the floods remain until now.
The disaster preparedness of government and non-government humanitarian
groups is being tested as the challenges seem to be insurmountable.
Mobilization for help across the globe is being sought. On October
25, Sunday from 3:00 PM 9:00 PM, at Suzanne Patterson Center at
45 Stockton St, Princeton, NJ, there will be a salsa dance workshop
for all levels under the teachings of the world famous Griselle
Ponce, who is now the dance partner of the one and only "Mambo
King" Eddie Torres. Griselle Ponce, who exudes grace, beauty and
charisma, will teach eye catching partner work and mesmerizing
body movements. One cannot leave her workshop without craving
for more. With her excellent ability to deliver her knowledge
and skills in dancing, it is guaranteed that the students' motivation,
inspiration and dance abilities will be greatly enhanced.

Salsa classes in New York and New Jersey as well as admissions

three years now, the Web of Compassion, continues to create multicultural
dance/music events to raise awareness and generosity in the communities
to dance for good. The Web has a track record of donating its
proceeds to organizations that help victims of natural and man-made
disasters. October 25 is just one of the many events of paid indoor
and free outdoor festivities featuring the likes of Eddie Torres
and Griselle Ponce, which the organization had successfully produced
for the enjoyment of everyone. Dancers or not, partners or none,
experience or none, the Web of Compassion, and all the Salsa Enthusiasts
supporting the organization's mission, invite everyone to support
this event. Dance is a great cardio-vascular activity to have
a healthy heart and expand one's compassion. Why not, Dance 4
Good?
