Dancing on both Tuesday and Thursday nights this week at Point Point will have Christmas themes. Details below.
Hello Dancers,
TUESDAY NIGHT LINE DANCING at Point Point - As the ladies dance their way towards the end of the year, they have really been enthusiastic about line dances that are relatively new to Nina's line dancers, "Almost Jamaica", "I'm Alive" and "There's a Kind of Hush". And, I must mention the seasonal favorite "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree". "It's My Soul" and "Rivers Of Babylon" line dances, both introduced to Nina's group in 2011, also got lots of practice in the past few weeks. Some of those dances were also performed as special demonstrations in some of the holiday parties around town over the past few weeks.
FOR UPCOMING TUESDAYS (like Dec 20th and Dec 27th and into January). Speaking of holiday parties, this Tuesday Dec 20th will be Nina's line dancers' Christmas party, perhaps featuring more food and laughter than dancing. In any case, you can join the fun in Point Point's Ocean Java Room, 916 E. 8th Street, National City, 6:30-9:00, when Nina normally leads us through fun line dances.
THURSDAY NIGHT DANCING AT POINT POINT. Our thoughts and prayers go with Penny and Leo as they are off to the Philippines in the wake of the passing of Penny's brother. With disastrous flooding in Mindanao in the past few days, it's not the best time to go to the Philippines. Meanwhile, on the dance floor at Point Point on Thursdays, dancers have been enjoying line dances, swing, cha cha, salsa, bachata, merengue, waltz and more, with about 25 in attendance each Thursday. The night club 2-step dances "Sinta" and "Yo Te Amo" continue to be top favorites. Line dancers clamor for "Almost Jamaica", which is relatively new to Thursday nights. The beautiful rumba "Esta Noche" and the hip hop "Family Affair" have been well-received lately.
CHRISTMAS DANCE at Point Point this Thursday (Dec 22nd), so wear your festive holiday dancing clothes. As I fill in as DJ for Leo, we invite you to dance on Thursdays at Point Point probably every Thursday into January, i.e, December 22nd, Dec 29th, Jan 5th, and on. Where: On the main floor at Point Point, 916 E. 8th Street, National City. Party dancing: 6:00-10 PM.
FRIDAY NIGHT DANCING: There are about five almost-every-Friday night Fil-Am dance parties in the San Diego area, including 32nd St Dance Group, Dancesation at Infinity, RMX, Red Hot Line Dancers, and the Dance Fusion Social Club. FOR MORE INFO ON THOSE AND MORE DANCE CHOICES, see Weekly Dance Events website (see my comment about that website below).
PHOTOS. With a camera working nicely last week, all 3 of these are from Dec 15th (if these 3 photos do not pop up, click "Show Images" near top of this email):
First of all, we see line dancers like Celia, Marylou and Penny in front on … What was it? Maybe "Acabo De Llegar" salsa line dance on Thursday December 15th at Point Point.
Next, we see Rei dancing with Bert Ignacio (I think), maybe to a night club 2-step, again on Thursday Dec 15th.
Then, around 8:45pm there were several dancers enjoying what seems to be "Family Affair" hip hop song.
I put those three photos plus 20 other photos from the past week in the ForeverYoungSD Yahoo Group Photos section into the '2011 December' folder.

Filipino Hillbilly Costume Dance this Thursday at Point Point. Fil-Am Dance Wednesdays at Spin City ended. Details below.
Hello Dancers,
TUESDAY NIGHT LINE DANCING at Point Point - Claire, a newcomer to Tuesday night line dancing, joined the line dancers Oct 25th. They had lots of fun dancing mostly line dances that are new to the group, like "Rivers Of Babylon", "Mega Mambo", "Stuck On You", and "Acabo De Llegar" (a Salsa Line Dance).
FOR UPCOMING TUESDAYS (like today Nov 1st, and Nov 8th) you can join the fun in Point Point's Ocean Java Room, 916 E. 8th Street, National City, 6:30-9:00, when Nina will lead us through fun line dances.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT FIL-AM DANCING at Spin City Lounge with DJ Ernie's it Music Factory came to an end last Wednesday (Oct 26th), completing a 5-week engagement. Spin City management wanted more people. Nevertheless, the 15 dancers in attendance last Wednesday had a rousing good time. After another Paul Garcia dance lesson, it was swing like "On The Floor", samba like "La Isla Bonita", line dances like "Tennessee Waltz", and many more until 11pm. So, for the first time in about 2 years, there seems to be no weekly Wednesday night Fil-Am dance in the San Diego area.
THURSDAY NIGHT DANCING at Point Point. Wear Western Country attire for "Filipino Hillbilly Night" this Thursday Nov 3rd at Point Point. This follows last week's (Oct 27th) big Halloween Costume Dance Party at Point Point. I think Ernie Tactay had the most concealing costume, as a 70's hippie - I couldn't recognize him. DJ Leo kept about 50 dancers moving. As usual the dances between 8-9pm packed the floor, dances like "Ave Maria Lola" (salsa), "Crazy Little Thing Called Love " (boogie), and even "Blue Tango". And the line dancers packed the floor on "Stuck On You", "Under The Sun", and "Coco Jamboo". But, percentage-wise, "The Right Thing We Do" (Waltz Line Dance) won the night - it got almost everyone still in Point Point on the floor at quitting time.
YOU Are Invited to Western Night. Where & when: Thursday November 3rd, on the main floor at Point Point, 916 E. 8th Street, National City. Party dancing: 6:30-10 PM.
FRIDAY NIGHT DANCING: There are about five every-Friday night Fil-Am dance parties in the San Diego area, including 32nd St Dance Group, Dancesation at Infinity, RMX, Red Hot Line Dancers, and the Dance Fusion Social Club. FOR MORE INFO ON THOSE AND MORE DANCE CHOICES, see Weekly Dance Events website.
PHOTOS (if these 2 photos do not pop up, click "Show Images" near top of this email):
First of all, we see Edith R and Irma in front of "It's My Soul" line dancers on Wednesday October 26th at Spin City.
Then, at we see Rei and DJ Leo dancing to "Blue Tango" on Thursday October 27th at the Halloween Costume Dance Party.
I put those two photos plus 14 other photos from the past week in the ForeverYoungSD Yahoo Group Photos section into the '2011 October' folder.

Hello Dancers,
This Thursday (Oct 27th) - It's a Halloween Costume Party Dance this week at Point Point. More details below.
TUESDAY NIGHT LINE DANCING at Point Point - The ladies keep having fun. During the past two weeks they've enjoyed polishing their steps for "Rivers Of Babylon", "Mega Mambo", "Stuck On You", "It's My Soul", the Salsa Line Dance, and a couple more new ones - "Best Of My Love" and "Upside Down". Rory, a well-known dancer at the Fil-Am dances, joined the dancers on Tuesday Oct 16th.

All are invited to "Ballroom & Disco Dancing" (and line dancing) with DJ Ernie at Spin City 618 E Street, Suite H, Chula Vista, Wednesday nights like this Wednesday Oct 26th.

But, THIS THURSDAY Oct 27th Leo and Penny invite us all to the gala HALLOWEEN COSTUME DANCE PARTY. There'll be a lot of dancing to songs that are fast - like swing & merengue - and slow - like "Sinta" and "Esta Noche" - so choose your costume appropriately.

Hello Dancers,
No Thursday night dancing at Point Point Oct 20, BUT BIG HALLOWEEN COSTUME PARTY Thurs night Oct 27 at Point Point.
Dancers decided to give themselves a week off this coming Thursday October 20th at Point Point after nine straight months of Thursday night dancing at Point Point! They'll use the time off to get their costumes ready for the BIG HALLOWEEN COSTUME PARTY on the following Thursday October 27th at Point Point, 916 East 8th Street, National City, beginning at 6:30pm. Leo and Penny invite you all to show up Thursday October 27th and have a dancing good time with ballroom dances (swing, cha cha, merengue, night club 2-step, salsa, tango and more) plus LINE DANCING.
Line dancers were in abundance this past Thursday (October 13th) and guys were in short supply, so to the joy of line dancers over half the songs were line dances. Here we see two views of folks dancing a line dance. First of all with Belen and Ledy in front.
This second view has Connie and Nita in front.

Back in October 2009, Nina started Tuesday night line dancing in the former Jestoni Club, with line dance favorites at the time being "I Know You Want Me", "Sway", and "Rumba Samba Mambo". Well, during the past two weeks here in 2011 in Point Point, most of the emphasis has been on "Rivers Of Babylon", "Mega Mambo" and "Stuck On You" line dances (links are to YouTube videos). Sept 27th and Oct 4th line dance parties both had about 15 line dancers, welcoming Celia for her first night on Oct 4th.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT DANCING at Spin City Lounge began in rollicking fashion on Sept 28th with 20 dancers, the same night as DJ Eric concluded his year & a half engagement as the DJ for Lucky Star's Filipino Night. At Spin City we've been pleasantly surprised for two weeks now, first of all by the great music courtesy of DJ Ernie and his "igt Music Factory". Secondly, we've enjoyed lots of munchies (heavy hors d'oeuvres), so much chicken, vegetables and chips & salsa that it's been all-you-can-eat. And, last but not least, the great dance instructor Paul Garcia has taught us fabulous ballroom dance steps. DJ Ernie has played dance favorites like, "Suavemente" (merengue), "Tennessee Waltz" (line dance), and "Funkytown" (swing).
All are invited to "Ballroom & Disco Dancing" (and line dancing) with DJ Ernie at Spin City 618 E Street, Suite H, Chula Vista, Wednesday nights like this Wednesday Oct 12th. Admission is $5 for Paul Garcia's dance lesson from 7-8pm, and $5 for "Ballroom & Disco Dancing" from 8-11pm.
THURSDAY NIGHT DANCING AT POINT POINT is still where it's happening, in the weekly Fil-Am dance night scene in San Diego. DJ Leo plays the dance favorites like "Sinta", the romantic Filipino night club 2-step, "Esta Noche" rumba, the Waltz Line Dance, "Footloose" boogie, and an incredible one I heard for the first time, "Samba Margarita". Crowds of over 30 have been enjoying the dancing and great Point Point food.
Leo & Penny invite us all to come on down Thursdays October 13th and 20th, to dance again on the main floor at Point Point, 916 E. 8th Street, National City. Party dancing: 6:30-10 PM.

Hello Dancers,
DJ Eric ended his Wednesday night engagement at Lucky Star 3 days ago, but on the same night DJ Ernie started his at Spin City. More details below.
DJ Eric wrapped up a year and a half of DJ'ing at Lucky Star this past Wednesday.
Here we see Edith D and DJ Eric enjoying a last dance. It was a year & a half of a lot of great music, ballroom and line dances. At this time, Lucky Star has no immediate plans to fill Wednesday nights, from what I heard. Lucky Star is located at 54th Street and University Avenue, and their big Thursday night and weekend entertainment schedule continues.
Coincidentally, also on Wednesday night (Sept 28th), DJ Ernie Tactay as the "iqt Music Factory" had his Grand Opening at Spin City in Chula Vista.
Here we see some of the 20 dancers in attendance, in particular Trini and Edith R in front of "Cumbia Semana" line dancers, at the Grand Opening at Spin City on Sept 28th. Dancers enjoyed lots of munchies (hors d'oeuvres). VIPs in attendance included Susan de los Santos, publisher of the Filipino Press. This Wednesday (Oct 5th), DJ Ernie will again host Ballroom and Line Dancing Spin City, 618 E Street, Suite H, Chula Vista. Admission is $5 for Paul Garcia's dance lesson from 7-8pm, and $5 for "Ballroom & Disco Dancing" from 8-11pm.

Hello Dancers,
BLACKOUT on Sept 8th and 9/11 memorials on Sept 11th. More details below.
It's a week to remember in San Diego. The long County-wide power blackout that began at 3:38pm Thursday caused cancellation of Thursday night dancing and untold millions of dollars of damage. Tomorrow (Sunday Sept 11th) will mark 10 years since the terrorist attacks of Sept 11, 2001. Churches, other organizations, and all of us will be remembering, memorializing and honoring those who were killed in the attacks ten years ago, and those killed & wounded in the ensuing 10-year war on terror.
TUESDAY NIGHT LINE DANCING - VIP visitors who made the journey from Temecula on August 30th, Maria and Froilan, joined about ten of us line dancers. We had more practice on "Acabo de Llegar", the salsa line dance that Rei introduced in a previous week. Others included "Locomotion", "Come Dance With Me", and - with both Peter & I there - we also got "Coco Jamboo". I have no photos from Sept 6th, but with the all-time record heat that day, whoever danced was WARM!
FOR UPCOMING TUESDAYS (Sept 13th and 20th) you can join the fun in Point Point's Ocean Java Room, 916 E. 8th Street, National City, 6:30-9:00, when Nina will lead us through fun line dances.
WEDNESDAY FILIPINO NIGHTS at Lucky Star Restaurant. With attendance hovering around ten, we were happy to welcome nurses Lady, Romilde and Jamie. We all had fun practicing swing, cha cha and salsa. The air conditioning kept us cool, and DJ Eric was hot. Besides his favorite, a country swing (boogie) called "Chattahoochee", he's begun playing "On The Floor" and "Ooh La La". A couple weeks ago the guys outnumbered the ladies, but Sept 7th saw more ladies than guys. DJ Eric was busy dancing (see photo albums).
"Filipino Night" once again will be this coming Wednesday September 14th at the LUCKY STAR RESTAURANT, 54th Street & University Avenue, San Diego. 6:30-9:30PM. $6 plus one drink minimum. DJ Eric will be on stage playing a variety of dance music.
THURSDAY NIGHT DANCING AT POINT POINT was blacked out Thursday (Sept 8th), but it was a lively night of dancing Sept 1st. "Yo Te Amo", the night club 2-step favorite for years, packed the floor about 8:30. DJ Leo kept the 45 or so folks dancing with swing, meringue, line dances and more. "Twist & Shout", "Footloose" and "Suavemente" were some of the favorites. Line dances were big too, especially "Mama Maria".
This coming Thursday September 15th, Leo & Penny invite us all to dance again on the main floor at Point Point, 916 E. 8th Street, National City. Party dancing: 6:30-10 PM.
FRIDAY NIGHT DANCING: There are at least four every-Friday night dance parties, including 32nd St Dance Group, Dancesation at Infinity, RMX and Red Hot Line Dancers. FOR MORE INFO ON THOSE AND MORE DANCE CHOICES, see Weekly Dance Events website.
Ernie Tactay mentioned that he expects to begin DJ'ing every Wednesday starting in late September, I think in Chula Vista's Spin City.
PHOTOS (if these 2 photos do not pop up, click "Show Images" near top of this email):
First of all, at Point Point on Sept 1st we see Dione and Nita gracefully dancing a bachata.
Then, at Lucky Star on Sept 7th we see the ladies having fun with the "Casper Slide", with Vivian and Lady in front, and Jovith, Rose and Romilde in the second line.
I put those two photos plus 19 other photos from the past 2 weeks in the ForeverYoungSD Yahoo Group Photos section into the '2011 September' folder. For those of you who prefer the features of Google's Picasa Web Albums, and you who are non-Yahoo members, the August photos are also posted at
