"Special thanks to Jorge Mercado, the person who taught me my first salsa steps and continues being my mentor, and to my unconditional dance partner and brother Hector Vazquez who is always there for me. Thanks to everyone who supported me and continues to do so in my journey of salsa dancing. "
" Seeing the interest in such a fun and healthy activity was a catalyst to my motivation to improve as a dancer and instructor. I look forward to spreading my passion and love of salsa dancing."
