Big Dance - Thursday Night at Point Point Joint, Oct. 23, 2014

Hi Dancers,
  This Thursday night at Point Point Joint, October 23, 2014, we'll be dancing again.  This is YOUR INVITATION to be there.  The great DJ Leo will be playing swing, cha cha, cumbia, tango, and many more - and of course - LINE DANCING!  Point Point will offer us dancers their delicious $10 dinner special which includes a soft drink.  (More details below.).  So come on over - Party time:  from 6pm until 10pm at Point Point Joint, 916 E. 8th Street, National City.  

  Last Thursday October 16, 2014, we had a great time at Point Point Joint for PINK NIGHT (October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month).  There were nearly 50 dancers there, thanks in part to six 1st-timers, and some others who hadn't been there in over a month.  We had a lot of fun dancing to the music of DJ Bing.  The five photos below show only a small part of the story.         (Note: If the following photos do not appear when you look at this email, click the words at the top of this email that say something like "Show images which are still blocked to protect your privacy" - I already know who you are):

PINK NIGHT AT POINT POINT JOINT (OCTOBER 16, 2014):

Besides it being PINK NIGHT, the big event was Nedy's birthday!!  Nedy brought a birthday cake and a lot of pancit palabok, which everyone had fun eating.  Above we see the PINK LADIES wishing Nedy Happy Birthday.

Of course there were lots of line dances.  Above, some line dancers were bringing back 'Piel Morena' from the archives. 

And, the guys' favorites - ballroom dances. Mona and Nickie danced to the salsa "Acabo De Llegar".

Tito and Gloria, maybe the pinkest of the pink, were dancing to the samba "Bailamos".

And, we welcomed back Boyet and Liz.  In the photo above, I think they were dancing to the rumba 'Reloj'.  



   On Thursday we had lots of fun with ballroom dance songs like "Blue Tango" (rumba), "I Need To Know" (cha cha), and "Bop To Be" (boogie-East Coast Swing).  And, the women loved the line dances including:  "Mamita Mia", "Simplemente", and "Spanish Eyes".  

  It's a fun dance party most every Thursday night at Point Point Joint with line dances and ballroom dances like swing including Manila Swing (also known as 4-count hustle or Philippine swing or Filipino swing), cha cha, night club 2-step, tango and much much more.  For this weeks' Dance Party on Thursday (October 23, 2014), Point Point Joint Restaurant, 916 E. 8th Street, National City, as usual offers their special price of $10 for 2-entree dinner plus drink for Thursday Night dancers.

P.S. Other Notes: (1) This is the best ballroom dancing in San Diego on Thursday nights - they are private parties, and this is your invitation to members of the email group to enjoy dancing in Point Point Joint Restaurant, a mere four miles from downtown San Diego.  While the dancing is continuous, there are dancers who are happy to give free dance lessons during the dances, in case you don't know the steps of a particular dance.  Hmmm - I bet the simultaneous instruction while others dance makes this the best ballroom dance lessons in San Diego.
