Salsa in New Jersey (NJ): Your Source for Salsa Dance Lessons, Events and Socials, Nightclubs, Performances, Salsa Classes, Videos, Audio and Information
There is an unique feeling about Salsa Thursdays at PERLÉ Nightclub. This party always feels intimate and friendly so PERLÉ makes an ideal venue to experience professional Salsa performances in an up-close and personal way. Here is the perfect example: Eddie Torres & Griselle Ponce truly make a personal and direct connection with the audience.
As a charity fundraiser, people can vote with donations to pick Dany Joshua’s next hair color. The choices are green, pink, red, purple or blue. The grand tally for each color will be revealed on May 27th at PERLÉ. Last night, on May 20th we opened the “poll” and the color pink is leading by a great marging. Here are the preliminary results so far: Here are the results after the Web of Compassion Social in Princeton:
Blue $1 $4
Green $1 $1
Purple $3 $20
Red $2 $7
Pink $23 $33
So, purple is catching up to pink. Remember that 100% of this fund-raiser will go to Web of Compassion to benefit the “Haiti Relief Effort” through the Haitian Consulate. Don’t be afraid to vote with $5 and $10 bills, remember that those votes count more than the Washington $1 votes.
Eddie & Griselle came down to New Brunswick to do one dance show, but as a gesture of their their great passion and positive energy, they surprised everyone when they graced the dance floor a second time! The videos are below (Thanks Tricia!). The links to the photo albums are below also.
Eddie Torres, “The Mambo King”, will be teaching his magic Salsa steps at PERLÉ this Thursday, May 13 2010. Plus Eddie will be performing a spectacular routine in the heat of the party! If that weren’t enough, Griselle Ponce will be co-starring during the workshop and the performance. So there it is:

The PreParty of the NJISC was one of the best Salsa nights at PERLÉ. The energy in the room was amazing. Friends, family and many important people in my life were present that night. Thank you to Melissa Rosado for an outstanding workshop and two great performances. There are three (3) albums of photos below. Enjoy (and please tag all the people you know).
The RED ROOM was popping as usual with DJ Len Cotto and DJ Leo G, as always! The main room was full beautiful girls, as usual! LOL. Here are the photos to prove it. If you want your picture taken next time, just “ax” one of the photographers to take your mug.
It has been crazy during the last six months! Busy busy! The “Dany Joshua Salsa (pod)Cast” has taken a backseat in the last few months. But it’s time to bring the videos and audio back and keep them coming on a regular basis.
Anyway, It turns out that PERLÉ’s website just got a major re-design and it looks banging! I was asked to provide one “high energy” song that represents Salsa Thursdays well, and you know what? I sent them 4 songs! So for this Episode, I have included 4 banging tracks that are presently in rotation at PERLÉ.
Listen, download to you iPod, and enjoy! If you like this music, this is what we play at PERLÉ, so come and check it out for yourself. And while you are at it, check out the NEW WEBSITE of PERLE NIGHTCLUB. FYI, Friday nights with DJ Davis G, and Saturday Nights with DJ Johnny FX are popping too!
