Filipino Night Photos and Dance This Thursday (June 20th)

Hello Dancers,

  Filipino Night was a festive success and a photo frenzy (details below).
  This is your invitation to come back to Point Point this coming Thursday (June 20th) for non-stop dancing from 6 - 10pm.  We hope to see you there.  Today's paper predicts a high of 75 degrees on Thursday. 
   This past Thursday (June 13th) was the Filipino Night Dance Party at Point Point, and the night was a full blown photographers' fest from 6 to 10pm, in perfect weather.  Dancing seemed to be 2nd place compared to the fancy Filipino costumes (see some photos below).  Photos cannot even convey the full beauty of it all.  DJ Mel kept the music going all night for about 50 dancers through several "special number" dances, the costume contest, and various introductions.  
   PHOTOS:  Filipino Night had non-stop camera flashes.  The numerous photos do not do justice to what we saw.  Anyway, here is an ELEVEN-photo (!!) sample of the beautiful sights.   (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 "images have been blocked to protect your privacy" - I already know who you are):

Cesar led dancers in a "new" line dance called "Tornero".

Florita and Rima were delightfully joyous around Nedy who was wearing a delightfully beautiful yellow Maria Clara dress.

The ladies' costumes were beautiful.  Here lined up next to Edith left to right are Joy, Emma, Eva, Suzanne and Nedy.

Jesse was dancing all night.  On this dance he danced with a 1st-timer.

New-comers Mike and Joy won the Best Costume gift awarded here by my Edith. 

The "Prime Ladies" had a "special number" dance.  Here Myrna and Nilda are in front while Marie gets everyone into position.

Beth, Peter and Nedy dance another "special number", this being "La Jota Moncadena", a Filipino folk dance reportedly originally from Tarlac.

Dancers here enjoy "Dahil Sa Iyo", which has been a line dance favorite for a few months now.

DJ Ernie and Christine danced near 9:30pm.

A little later Rima and Jack were dancing.

At closing time both ballroom and line dancers were on the floor for "Baby Likes To Rock It".  Carlos (in red in foreground) danced it with Christine.  


It's a fun dance party most every Thursday night at Point Point with line dances and ballroom swing, cha cha, night club 2-step, tango and much much more.  Once again this Thursday Point Point offers their special price of $10 for 2-entree dinner plus drink for Thursday Night dancers.  
  Here's the plan for the next few weeks (well, at least until DJ Leo returns from the Philippines): 

Thursday  June 20th 6-10om, DJ Bert
Thursday  June 27th 6-10pm, ASIA NIGHT, DJ Mel (yes, you can wear your Filipino Night costume again!!) 
Thursday  July 4th  6-10pm, FILIPINO-AMERICAN Friendship Night (or Red White & Blue Night), DJ Bert
Thursday  July 11th 6-10pm, DJ Mel

(The Early Birds start partying around 5:30pm.)

See you on the dance floor,
Bert & Edith

Filipino Night Dance This Thursday (June 13th) at Point Point

Hello Dancers,

  Here's your invitation to the special Filipino Night Dance Party this coming Thursday (June 13th) at Point Point.  You can bet your dancing shoes that that DJ Mel will give us a rollicking good time on the dance floor.  You can wear Filipino-flavored clothes like a barong or kimona/patadyong or something for the costume contest.  We hope to see you there.  Today's paper predicts a high of 74 degrees on Thursday, another degree warmer than last week's warm night.  Anyway, we'll have non-stop dancing fun from 6-10pm - DJ Mel will be playing line dances and ballroom swing, cha cha, night club 2-step, tango and much much more.  Once again Point Point offers their special price of $10 for 2-entree dinner plus drink for Thursday Night dancers.  
  Last Thursday (June 6th) about 30 dancers had a great time on the Point Point dance floor.  My Edith brought a birthday cake for Rima (a reversal from the week before when Rima had brought a birthday cake for Edith).  Here are some photo highlights from last Thursday's June 6th party (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 "images have been blocked to protect your privacy" - I already know who you are):

A while later Ly and Ruben were spotted dancing together.

Nearing closing time, DJ Mel and Nedy were in front on "Stuck On You".

At closing time Nedy and Estrelle were in front of the "Wobble" dancers.

  Last Thursday (May 30th) DJ Mel made sure that about 40 dancers had a marvelous time at the dance party at Point Point.  And, once again there were some newcomers and some ladies there who had not been to a Thursday night Point Point dance in a year or more.  The weather was perfect again.  Here are some photo highlights from last Thursday's May 30th party (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 "images have been blocked to protect your privacy" - I already know who you are):

DJ Ernie joined the fun again.  Here Edith R and Ernie are dancing a night club 2-step, "Tal Vez, Quizas".

A little while later I snapped Ester peek-a-booing and doing a dance with DJ Ernie. 

Then, Edith and Rima were in front on one of the newer line dances, "Mambo Ritmo".

Near closing time, Jesse was still giving dance lessons, this time with the song "Hello Dolly".

In this photo, Celi is in front of the bachata dancers.

Meanwhile on the other side of the dance floor, DJ Mel and Eva were dancing a cha cha (well, the bachata and cha cha have almost identical tempos).  Another highlight of the night:  Eva had brought several stylish blouses and other items from her store, Eva's Fashion Boutique in National City, to show to some of the ladies. 

Wow! DJs were all over the dance floor on this song.  Here we see DJ Ernie with Jayne - I think they were dancing the bachata steps.

Dance This Thursday at Point Point - 'Hawaiian Night'

Hello Dancers,

  It will be "Hawaiian Night" for this Thursday's Dance Party at Point Point.  Details below.

  DJ Mel played for about 40 dancers last week's "Mexican Night" (on May 2nd, an early Cinco de Mayo dance party).  It was a little warm, a taste of warmer nights ahead. Highlights included costume prizes awarded to FOUR dancers, and a visit from Cindy inviting us to her birthday party this Tuesday (May 7th) at McDini's starting at 6pm.

  At the Thursday night dance party the week before, DJ Leo played for about 50 dancers, thanks to a large group from the South Bay Terraces Seniors Association who had come to celebrate out-going association secretary Virgie's birthday.   

  Anyway, the jovial dancers last Thursday night proclaimed that this coming Thursday will be "Hawaiian Night".  The weather forecast in today's paper predicts a cool 66 degrees for Thursday, so I'll play some lively music to keep you warm.  We'll have the same fun dances, and a costume is optional, but we plan to award the best costumed dancer a prize.  Point Point offers their special price of $10 for 2-entree dinner plus drink for Thursday Night dancers, and there'll be complimentary snacks.  

  Here are some photo highlights from the past two dance parties at Point Point (Note: If the following photos do not appear in this email, click the words at the top of this email that say something like "images have been blocked to protect your privacy" - I already know who you are):

First of all, the line dancers really loved "La Ultima Noche"  cha cha line dance.

A little later Eva and DJ Dwayne were having fun dancing to a swing medley.

Jumping ahead a week to May 2nd, "Mexican Night", I got an over-exposed picture of 3 of the 4 costume prize winner, with Judge Nita and on right side is DJ Mel.  The other winner, Peter, is another photo.

Here we see Cindy during her brief visit dancing a cumbia with Cisco.

Here we see Peter, the other costume prize winner, dancing a night club two-step, "Nikita", with Nedy.

Near the end of the night, I spotted Evelyn dancing a cha cha with Ping. 



This is your invitation to the Dance Party fun & frolic this Thursday Night (May 9th), 6-10pm at Point Point, 916 East 8th Street, National City.  Enjoy swing (hustle), cha cha, tango, merengue and other ballroom dances, and of course line dances.


It's a fun dance party most every Thursday night at Point Point.  Here's the plan for the next few weeks (while DJ Leo is in the Philippines):
Thursday  May  9th  6-10pm, Hawaiian Night, DJ Bert
Thursday  May  16th 6-10pm, DJ Mel
Thursday  May  23rd 6-10pm, DJ Bert
Thursday  May  30th 6-10pm, DJ Mel

Later:
