Phoenix Dance in Media:

'Saucy' Latin dance attracts new enthusiasts
....Article from China Daily
"Phoenix was the earliest salsa dance troupe in Beijing, and perhaps the first on the mainland. Established a year ago, this troupe is led by "Mambo" Jack Dunn, a top salsa artist from the United States, and a Chinese woman who studied salsa in Europe for several years. She goes by her stage name Zhen Zhen. "

'Mambo is the new cotillion'
....Article from China Daily - City Life
"Anita loved to watch the adult classes through the window. She saw them and said 'I want to try, too."

'Let Salsa Fire Up Your Desire!'
....Article from CN Sports- Yahoo
"The magic of SALSA has now come to China and affected most upper class people in Beijing, ShangHai and ShengZhen. ...What are you waiting for?! Jump in your fancy shoes and get on the dance floor! Dance as if nobody is looking! It is a great opportunities to meet some fantastic people, to show off your flares, to truly be comfortable with your body and be proud of yourself. "

Why is salsa so addictive?
Salsa dancing is a lot of fun, and you meet a LOT of great people, but the music..... The rhythms in salsa music are originally from Africa. The very powerful drum-rhythms were originally used for religious purposes. Mambo is a African word that means to call for the Gods... Anybody who dance salsa understand the power in these rhythms - it is impossible to not move!

Salsa, the hot and sexy Latin dance, is currently the most popular club/social dance in the world
