When I was looking for a language exchange partner, I put an announce on the notice board which is at the entrance of the library of alliance francaise. It was very efficient since I managed to meet two persons who became regular language exchange partners. You should also try this option.

Hi, I am taking classes at Las Lilas. Their teachers put a lot of emphasis on oral expression. The number of students in a class being between 5 and 10, every student will have the chance to speak a lot during the class.

Hi, the best place to salsa in Singapore is Union Square, in the Amara hotel shopping center(close to tanjong pagar MRT station). They play salsa, merengue and bachata from Monday to Saturday. A lot of dancers, and they have a Colombian live band (playing two sets every night). There is a salsa nigh...

Another great place for jazz lovers is Jazz@southbridge, on boat quay. I might be going there on friday night with a friend, but nothing sure yet.

On Sundays, they have a special offer. You pay 7$ for one drink, and you can try one beginner lesson(you can also go for the intermediate just after). Then you will have an idea of what they teach and how they teach it before deciding to join them.

You don't need to be slim for dancing salsa, your friend can easily learn.
At actfa studio, the beginner class is always the same. First, you will be taught the three basic steps. Then, with a partner, you will learn the simple turn and another simple movement called cross body lead.

For this Friday, I am the only one able to go.
And we (at least three) are going for sure next Wednesday.

Most of the time we go on wednesday (after our class). We are not going this week because of a dinner tmw. I will try to ask them if they are willing to go this friday.
Where are you taking your classes? Most of us a re taking classes at dance attitude in Tanjong Pagar.

Hi,

I will be very interested in going to this club.

Hi charliebeer, I have sent you a pm.
Btw, it seems that I am the only one still interested. With you, we will be two. One more person and we can start a riot after the show.

Besides the places that have been mentioned, there are two other good Jazz bars. The first one is called Jazz@South Bridge. It is on boat quay, and the band playing there is really good (I have been there only on week-ends). The other one is called Blu Jazz cafe, it is located close to Arab street. ...

I am planning to go there this monday evening around 6.30 pm.

Thanks!

Btw, would anybody be interested in a French-Tamil exchanged after I have found my class?

Hi charliebeer,

We are planning to go on wednesday night. I will pm you for the details.
