Hello Dancers,
Well, there will be NO THURSDAY NIGHT DANCE PARTY this coming Thursday January 29th at Lola Happy Bistro, 3421 E. Plaza Blvd., National City 91950, because we reduced the schedule to have dances only for special events, usually every other week. So, come to the February Birthdays Party on February 5th, especially if you have a birthday in February.
DIRECTIONS: Lola Happy Bistro, 3421 E. Plaza Blvd., National City 91950, is almost a mile east of the 805-Plaza Blvd exit, at the signal-lighted intersection of Plaza Blvd and Manchester Street. We will be in the restaurant with some regular customers.

A 70's DISCO DANCE PARTY was at Lola Happy Bistro on this past Thursday night, January 22, 2026, with DJ Nickie Bascos. On a cool night with occasional light rain, there were 45 in attendance. Here are 7 photos from last Thursday's Dance Party, all were copied from Facebooks.

BALLROOM DANCING was abundant. In the photo above, Ver and Beth danced what I think was a cha-cha in their disco attire.

P.S. Other Notes: (1) This is the best combination of Filipino-American ballroom dance clubs and Filipino-American line dance clubs in San Diego -- Thursday nights at Lola Happy Bistro in National City, with ballroom and line dances, Filipino dances, cha cha cha dancing and swing dancing -- Thursday night dance club in San Diego. While the dancing and music will be non-stop, there are dancers who are happy to give free one-on-one ballroom and line dance lessons during the dances, in case you don't know the steps of a particular dance.
