At night, after all the classes, there are performances and social salsa dancing.

There is one problem when you go to a Salsa Congress - its impossible for you to take all the classes because they overlap each other. You'll have to do some good planning and make some compromises.

If you do not know any of the instructors, be sure to ask around and find out more about them. To keep yourself in a good mood and create a pleasant enjoyable experience for yourself, you'll want to find out the instructors people like and would recommend and find out the ones that you should avoid.

Make sure to bring a video camera to tape your classes. You're paying alot of money for the classes and you'll want to tape the routines. There will also be alot of vendors for salsa shoes and salsa wear, so make sure to budget accordingly.
