I knew for quite some time that I was not alone in blogging about Salsa. What I didn’t know for a fact was that there are some Salsa blogs written by normal Salsa dancers long before I started my blog in the UK - Cardiff in this case. One of the posts that caught my attention was "How to learn Salsa" written about two weeks after I started my first ever Salsa lesson.

I started this blog after struggling with salsa for almost five months thinking that documenting my lessons may help me improve faster. It morphed and mushroomed into all kinds of things I saw and learned about Salsa - not just the dance and music but also the people and community. It is now a relic - a ghost of a time past - and for indefinitely occasional posts of the aftermath.

Thanks for the link.
Until I came across your blog I thought I was obsessive ; )
No problem at all - don't mention it.
It takes one to know another? Maybe we both should join Salsaholics Anonymous? :p
