CF's 20th Birthday Party

On the 10th of October 2005 Rafael Ferrer Noel arrived in New Zealand and CUBAN☆FUSION - Wellington's Cuban Salsa Specialists was born. Coincidentally the 10th of October is also Cuban Independence Day (a.k.a. El Dia del Grito de Yara) - on this day in 1868, Carlos Manuel de Céspedes, "Father of the Homeland", gave freedom to his slaves and started the independence war against the Spanish colonial power, which led to the Ten Years' War So we've got lots to celebrate and commemorate tonight! A BIG GRACIAS to our teachers and assistants present and past (Rogelio, Jenny, Nina, Michelle, Niki and Lauren), and all our students, dancers and supporters over the years. Without you CUBAN☆FUSION would not still exist. See you at El Barrio from 8pm, with Rafael's signature fun-follow-me class at 8.30pm, followed by dancing to DJ Timba Cubana on El Barrio's new dancefloor 9pm to 11pm, when DJ Coco turns down the lights and mixes things up.
