Salsa in Israel

Salsa is popular all around the world, sometimes in the most unlikely places. Israel is no exception, there are clubs and schools all around the country.

In the metropolis of Tel Aviv there is dance school and social club Salsa Florentin. If you want to try somewhere with a club atmosphere there the awesome looking Panorama Dance Floor, featuring a massive dance floor and sound system. Like many cities around the world there is a Havana Music Club in Tel Aviv, with a nice floor and luxurious decor.

If you are looking for something a little unique then try the salsa school and club Yaniv Yelon. It is located on the outskirts of Tel Aviv, but by all accounts it is worth the effort to go there.

In the satellite city of Rehovot there is also the dance school and club Baila Salsa

Sydney Salsa Scene

Back in Australia now and I am loving the Sydney salsa scene.

Graham plays some of the best mambo you will ever hear on Monday nights in the city at Bar 100.
You will find a good mix of on1 and on2 dancers there. It gets pretty packed, and the dance floor etiquette is a little disappointing sometimes, but the music and the dancers are great.

There are several other regular nights worth checking out to find your scene.

Establishment is crowded every Tuesday. It is very, very Cuban and casual scene. More of a drinking and messing around vibe.

There is also Thursday night by the quay with Salsa on the Rocks
