The LoveLee Salsa Extravaganza is a full day and night of salsa dancing, mixed with a good dose of fun and fundraising in aid of the Lee Wright Synergy Dance World Memorial Trust (Registered Charity 1142876)
Conway Hall, 25 Red Lion Square, London WC1R 4RL
As well as being an amazing yearly event (offering quality daytime workshops, evening classes, shows and social dancing), the money raised ensures that we can offer as many workshops and courses as possible, to reach and benefit as many students and dancers as possible. We really hope that ALL those who take part in some way, learn a lot, dance a lot, and above all, have a great time! This year the entire event, daytime and evening, will be held in the same venue for an even greater sense of community and fun!

14:00 – 14:50 Timing and Musicality (Mauricio Reyes)
15:00 – 15:50 Styling within Partnerwork (Albert Pegus and Miriam Oppel)

The aim of Lee’s Trust is to bring the positive benefits of salsa dance into people’s lives. The Trust specifically targets those who are unable or unlikely to access salsa classes, with the aim of developing the physical and psychological wellbeing of the students. Through the charity’s work, the positive influence of Lee Wright continues to benefit people of all dance levels and abilities. The Trust is unique in that it raises funds within the Salsa community to put back into Salsa-related projects.
***NB As per usual, anyone leaving or arriving after 10.30pm will need to use the alternative entrance/exit, on Theobalds Road***
