The dinner buffet line food is from $5, and it includes a soda or a water bottle.  This is your invitation for non-stop line dancing from 6pm - 7pm, and from 7pm - 10pm it will be mixed ballroom (swing, cha cha, rumba, salsa, etc., etc.), plus line dancing.  The wonderful DJ Bing will play, and the weather forecast looks OK.

LAST THURSDAY NIGHT AT POINT POINT JOINT (JANUARY 28, 2016):

LINE DANCING was non-stop from 6pm to 7pm.  After that it was mostly ballroom dances, with line dances like "MOJO MAMBO" above, with Eden front and center.

BALLROOM DANCES.  We guys prefer the ballroom dances, and DJ Mel Zaragoza and Elma were dancing to one of them above. 

MIXED ballroom and line dancing was common.  Above, Medy and Tito danced to the samba "Balla Con La Luna", while line dancers were behind them. 

I KNEW THIS ONE:  "Can't Take My Eyes Off You" line dance with Ruben and Dolores also in the front line.

BACHATA RISMA, the "borracho y loco" line dance, had . . . well, Elma was in front, and Edith, Medy and Beth were sort of in the second line.


FLASHBACK  -  4 YEARS AGO, FEBRUARY 2, 2012:

FLASHBACK.  Above, it was a line dance in the Joint on Thursday February 2, 2012, with Nina, Zeny and Peter in the front line.

 It's a really 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.

P.S. Other Notes: (1) These are considered private parties, and this is your invitation to members of the email group to enjoy dancing in Point Point Joint Restaurant, 916 E. 8th Street, National City, a mere four miles from downtown San Diego.  While the dancing is continuous at these dances, in case you do not know the easy steps used for a particular dance, ask me & I'll get someone to give you a free dance lesson while the music plays.  Hmmm - I bet the simultaneous instructions while others dance make these, for example, the best merengue dance lessons in San Diego.
