During the Labor Day weekend was the annual New York Salsa Congress which was held at the Hilton Hotel. The format of the event was similar to last year - every night there was a salsa show and general dancing. One difference was that the shows took place in the main ballroom instead of in a separate smaller room. Although there was no social dancing at the same time as the shows took place, the good thing was that there were plenty of seats for everyone to see the show and the view of the stage was much better than last year. After the shows were over at around 11 PM, they cleared all the chairs and made the giant ballroom available for social dancing to the sounds of live bands. Here are some photos that I took during the show on Friday. Some people who wanted special attention danced on the carpet in the foyer of the ballroom. They were surrounded by the crowed of people with camcorders. Here are my video clips:

The other good thing about the shows being held in the main ballroom is that the room that was used for the show last year served a different purpose this year. It was used for the first annual New York Hustle Congress. It was great to be able to go back and forth between the Salsa and Hustle. I am also glad that Hustle was being exposed to the Salsa crowd who may have never heard about it. The Hustle Congress consisted of general dancing, shows and competitions.
Here is the video of the winners of the Theater Arts division - Kelvin Roche and Lori Ann Greenhouse:The second place was taken by Louie and Ann Rosa. Here is the video:

A couple from Italy performed today at Jimmy Anton Latin Sunday held every other Sunday at Dance Manhattan Dance Studio. This is one of the most heavily attended salsa dance socials in New York City where you can see some of the best salsa dancers. I met someone who came to the social all the way from Upstate New York which is an hour and a half away.
The couple performing probably came from Italy for the upcoming New York Salsa Congress. Click on the links below for the video:
