Dancing at the Mambo
- It’s Wednesday night, and we were off to the Mambo Café. This was going to be our last chance to go. The Mambo is a very interesting place. It is a dance club, but it was for all ages. At the Mambo, there were people ranging from their early 20’s to elderly people in their 40’s. It was a really nice place to go out dancing. It was a nice place for everyone to hang out because on Wednesday, it was free to enter.
- One thing that I liked about Mexico is that dancing is a big part of the culture. At Mambo Café, and even at the streets on Saturday, there are crowds of people dancing to music. Latin dances are the most sultry and most fun form of dances. The salsa, the cha cha, the samba, etc. are all very interesting and when you know the basics, you can have a great time at the dance clubs. Unlike the US where dancing if very unrefined and are more about grinding, Latin dances are beautiful to watch. When I was at the Mambo Café, I was always dancing. It was nice to finally get the chance to show off my dancing skills at salsa and samba. Everyone was really impressed with my moves, but I was only doing the basics with a few modified moves thrown in between. What guys in the US don’t understand is that if you know how to dance, girls will be impressed. At the Mambo, the girls were impressed by the local guys that would ask them to dance. They had fun dancing the entire time we were there. Dancing is a fun activity and is a shame that not that many people like to dance.
