Hi all,
First of all, our next salsa night is taking place on Saturday 27th of September. For details on where it is and how to get there just check my previous posts as the time and venue still remain the same.
I also set up a facebook group for those of you who use it. Here is the link http://www.new.facebook.com/group.php?gid=32538065670 .The group is called Abuja Spice Salsa. I'm experimenting to see the best way to give news and updates on Abuja Spice and Facebook might be a better option as it's more efficient in getting information out to a lot of people. But don't worry my non facebookers ( I was one of you up till last week). I will still keep the blog updated regularly, especially with videos.
And once again thanks to all of you who braved the rain to come down last week. A few of us danced outside on the balcony in the fresh air after the downpour. It was actually quite refreshing...

Dancing in the Rain....
OK, even I have to admit that the rain last Saturday evening was heavy. In fact heavy is an understatement. Biblical is more appropriate. I was half expecting to see Noah cruising down IBB way in his ark.
So well done to all who braved the storm and came down. Especially to all the ladies who, despite the downpour, looked flavourlicious...(is that a real word?).We even had some new faces again. You’ll all get a treat next week, promise.
Our next night will be this Saturday the 20th. As usual, everyone is welcome. It doesn’t matter if you or your friends can’t dance salsa. So all those friends of yours who keep saying they can't come because they can’t dance salsa have no excuse. We play more than just salsa music on the night.
The most important thing is that you come to enjoy yourself. If you only want to relax and listen to the good music,that's fine too.No where else in Abuja plays the selection of music we do on a Saturday. The whole point of Abuja Spice is to have salsa fusion night where all are made to feel welcome.
Entry is free. Any beginners who want to learn the basic steps of salsa should come then. From around 8:30 you can practice your salsa steps and show the ‘pros’ how it’s done. But even if you come late, I’m sure there will be those who will gladly show you the basic salsa steps to get you going.
The night starts between 7:30-7:45 at the Roxel bar 167 Adetokunbo Ademola Crescent in Wuse II. The building is a white building and the bar is actually on the first floor. At night you can identify it by a orange tube lighting on the balcony. It is directly opposite Peniel apartments. It is close to Bodyline gym.It is 10 seconds from the junction of Adetokunbo Ademola Crescent and IBB way. The British Council is 1 minute away by car and the Hilton is about 5 mins away.
All the best guys and see you on Saturday…..

Salsa, Saturday, Abuja...simple
Greetings people. The torrential rain that hit on Saturday didn’t stop us from enjoying ourselves and welcoming some new faces. So well done and thanks to all those who braved the rain to come out to dance.
We had people from the U.S., Chinese and Sudanese communities join us. So my Cubanos where are you? We all know no salsa party is complete with out the Cubans showing us how to do it. So my Cuban brothers and sisters in Abuja we’d love you to come down.
Our next night will be this Saturday the 13th. It will be our 1 month anniversary!! So you know you have to come down and celebrate with us. As usual, everyone is welcome. It doesn’t matter if you can’t dance salsa. So all those friends of yours who keep saying they can't come because they can’t dance salsa have no excuse.

First Sweaty Little Steps......


Hi guys. Apologies for taking so long to stick up a post(The day job keeps getting in the way!). Well we've now had two Saturday's of Abuja Spice. And the night is proving to be little gem. We would like to thank everyone who made it down to both nights. The night would be nothing without you all. Our next night is on Saturday the 6th of September, starting at 7:30pm. at the Roxel Bar.The address is 167 Adetokunbo Ademola Crescent in Wuse II. The bar is opposite Peniel Apartments which is about 5-10 mins from the Hilton. It is in the first floor of a white building. You can identify it at night because it's the only building with orange tube lighting on the street.
Remember, this night is not only for hardcore salsa dancers but for all who want to dance, chill, and just have a good time...
Here are some pictures of the first night.
