the sydney salsa congress


What The Sydney Salsa Congress offers for the Non-Dancers are the Shows and Parties to exceed any expectation! The event is a reunion of Latin Dancers. What started as a Salsa congress is now a place for all types of Latin and Brazilian Dance.
It is well worth to immerse yourself in the energy. You can buy the tickets for only the nights that you choose.
From the 28th to 31st January 2010 at the State Sport Centre, Olympic Park in Sydney.
It gives the watchers the chance to see the best and most passionate Latin dancing in Australia. Among the artists are the best in the country and important international names. As someone that simply enjoy fine arts you will be treated with performances that make you sigh, laugh, scream, cheer and sometimes even cry with emotion.
Usually everyone makes a lot of noise for the performances they like, I remember one performance from last year, Jordan and Tatiana… at the end of it I had tears in my eyes, I was practically drooling with my gapping mouth, and I couldn’t applaud or cheer, I was numbed with the extraordinary beauty of their dancing… I was glad to be able to still breathe.
Even if you don’t dance, you should stay for a while after the shows and have a look at the parties, watch the magic of people that pair up and improvise… I remember, before I started learning Latin dancing, I used to wonder: how does she know what he wants her to do?
Last year I was a watcher because I had a fractured arm, I still went every night, and some days too, because the experience is unique and once you go you always think: I am so glad I came!

Sydney Salsa Congress

It is the countdown for the Sydney Salsa Congress. Only a few days to go! From 28th to 31st Jan 2010 do not call me, actually, pretend I’m off the face of the Earth because this Congress is where I’m gonna be…
It is the most amazing Latin Dance event in Australia, getting big on the Brazilian Dance styles too. It is considered the most successful congress in the world for integrating all the famous and trendy dance styles in the Latin World.
The Sydney Salsa Congress is on its 6th edition and I have two years of built up energy to spend. Last year I fractured my arm after falling off a horse. This year I’ve been a good girl and saved myself from any misadventures.

I have attacks of tachycardia when thinking about this event. It promises 4 nights and 3 days of full-on FUN, FUN, FUN!!!
Having participated of a few of the past congresses already I know what to expect:
Great workshops, so great I will push myself to the point far beyond exhaustion, with a merry, very, happy face… then the shows where you get to the point of drooling on the delicious, sometimes incredibly technical, sometimes profoundly passionate, all the times amazing, shows. Then the parties that go until late, now sporting two rooms: on for the Latin styles and the other to the Brazilian dances. I keep running from one to the other, trying to get a lot of all.
By Monday-after-event all you can hope is to be alive, although unable to be on a vertical state… and so happy, with a sense of accomplishment, full of memories that each part of your sore body will remember forever…

To the Toilet with Efficiency

efficient toilet


The toilet at my workplace has a timer for the lights. It is doubtless an efficiency measure. It doesn’t take long after you have come in for you to be left in the dark

Crowd in Sydney Harbour

and more incomprehensible Australia...
Here I turn to the “masters” and to me they are the writers of this genre in Brazil: Mario Prata (my personal master), Luiz Fernando Veríssimo, Arnaldo Jabor, among so many others

Incomprehensible Australia

I love this Aussie Land, especially Sydney that is now my home. I’m very glad to be a new Australian Citizen. Although I have multiplied my Brazilian love to include my new nation there are some things around here that do not make any sense to me

Absurdos Australianos

Eu amo a Austrália, em especial Sydney que se tornou meu lar. Para a felicidade geral da nação (e minha também), recebi minha cidadania recentemente e estou muito feliz. Até chorei na cerimônia quando cantamos o hino. Mas por mais que eu tenha multiplicado meu amor de brasileira para incluir paixão por essa nova pátria, algumas coisas dessa terra eu simplesmente não consigo compreender, aceitar, tolerar, entender, explicar ou digerir...

Olá Jule! Que legal que você gostou dos textos! Você mora na Austrália? Se sim, é associada do BraCCA? A novidade é que sou a nova editora do jornal da comunidade! Ainda não deu tempo de escrever o post a respeito... Um grande abraço, Tania

Hi Wilson,
It really made my day!
We have to be able to laugh and enjoy even when we miss an opportunity or things would just be too hard.
It is interesting that the company contacted the candidates that didn't get to apply, I will certainly pay more attention

My new moto these days is: I am doing enough... if I miss one or other chance, I will get the right one anyway !

Cheers, Tania

I know! Everytime I went through it, it was smelling like fresh paint... everything changed from one day to the other!

Thank you Fog and Hazius and Kristin and Toni,
Braussie is funny! I know there are people everywhere that are “crazies, bigots and morons” but I prefer to ignore them. It is a funny law of the universe that people that believe in something end up getting it. And I believe in sunshine, fuzzy colours (like in Hazius picture), luuuv, tacky flowers and chocolate. I know I sound terribly naive but I will cheer to that too. I’m not big in watching news and reading newspapers, don’t believe most of what I read and see, that the present and future is bleak and full of crisis. I don’t even believe Angie and Brad Pitt fight that much!!! I like the blogs because they are overall news with humanity. Bloggers are about what is interesting in life.
That is why I’m so happy with the Citizenship. It took me five and a half years of hard work and perseverance to get it. I had my share of crisis and bleak moments. But what I kept doing was: believing my dreams could transform my reality, and so they are doing it, over and over... and part of that was to be here: Home.
As I am every time I fly back, my eyes are moist and the emotion runs high...

on It's complicated...

I like this blog of yours with ideas for writing... what I would say about "complicated affairs" is: "a lot of things in between". Before there was only two options: either you were dating someone or you were not. Now! Gosh! there are so many possibilities! Between dating and not dating, love and not love, there are all kinds of inventions!
