A couple competes in the Bacahata Dance Contest during Salsa Saturdays on Feb.12 at Therapy Cafe.
Salsa Saturdays with DJ Danny D isn’t a spectator sport. It requires full participatory ass-shakin’ and hip-swayin’.
Every weekend, DJ Danny D (Danny Diaz) brings a little Miami to the Miami Valley with his Latin-laden dance mixes that keep mamis’ and papis’ hearts racing and pulses pounding. Last Saturday’s edition featured a Valentine’s Day Bachata dance contest that transformed downtown Dayton’s Therapy Cafe into a Cuban-style dance hall.
Bodies slick with sweat dipped, rolled and spun across the floor. There were no wallflowers in this urban oasis. Even the lights danced – performing their own erratic routine against the backs and faces of the torrent of dancers in the darkened night club.
No palm trees.
No LeBron James.
But plenty of Miami heat!
