and one of the best! See Longest
Running & Best Social. It's got good music played on a great
sound system, a large & excellent dance floor, midtown Manhattan location,
consistency, and attendance by several hundred On 2 dancers every time,
even in snow storms, and that usual includes dancers from out of town and
even from other countries. Large dance studio type space with AC, many willing dance
partners at different levels. 99% of the dancers "break On 2".
A full evening of salsa music, with an
occasional cha cha, being played by
Jimmy as the DJ ,with
occasional invited guest DJs, dance teams and bands (see Calendar ). Overall, this is
a top notch On 2 event, highly recommended, with a great diversity of
dancers coming from different parts of the NY/NJ metro area as well as
national & international visitors. Dress is very casual; in fact,
dress to sweat! This is a "3 t-shirt event". Click on
