Season 3 of Close Up Salsa fiesta commences

By Bernard Yaw ASHIADEY

Lovers of Afro-Cuban dance Salsa should be preparing their feet and body to rock to some Salsa tunes as the Close Up Salsa fiesta returns with Season 3.

Just as Close Up promises 3x fresher breath, Season 3 of the Salsa fiesta is poised to bring 3x the fun and thrill. This year, participation is open to both people who can already dance salsa and salsa funs who want to learn.

This year, Close Up wants to fully celebrate the growth of Salsa dancing in Ghana and to offer those who have learnt Salsa over the years the opportunity to aspire to the advanced level of Salsa dancing. Therefore while still offering free Salsa lessons to beginners, advanced dancers can also join the fun.

Salsa is known to bring people together by the very nature of the closeness of the partners involved in the dance. So if one already knows how to dance Salsa, this is the opportunity to show his skills by auditioning with a partner in the couples session.

The grand finale promises a staggering GH¢6000 grand prize for the winners. All that needs to be done is for Salsa enthusiasts to purchase three tubes of Close Up Large and join the audition train as it stops in Takoradi on  February 1st at the Akroma Plaza; Kumasi on February 2nd at the Royal Lamerta Hotel; and Accra on February 9th at the Aviation Social Centre.

For those who want to learn how to “salsa”,  buy three tubes of Close Up Large from any of the participating supermarkets and win eight weeks of free Salsa lessons, plus an opportunity to enter the competition with a partner in the couples session or as a group.  Winners take home GH¢4000 at the grand finale.

The participating sales outlets in Accra and Tema are Dominion, Shoprite & Game, Discount World, Baatsona Total, Melcom Plus, Marina Supermarkets, Max Mart, Evergreen Supermarket, TemaShop & Save, and Community 11 Shell.   

In Takoradi, purchases can be made at All Needs, Prestige, and Lucky Bazaar.  In Kumasi, buy from Opoku Trading, Ababio Express, A-Life Supermarket, Continental Supermarket, and Silver Crest Supermarket.
