well davey makes a valid point 
ciaran, absolutey right, that is what all but one of us has been saying all along.
honestly jak, i have a hard time concentrating when i read your posts. couldnt you type like you talk instead of using all the waffle... please?
as for vested interests, for all we know jak, you could be a salsa promoter in disguise.and tell me, how do you know what my interests are exactly? you dont know very much about me. and as far as i can see, you have offended, not just salsa teachers, but dancers alike. as for your appology i accept, yes you did cause offence, a great deal to me in fact, but i forgive you and ill forget about it, and do my best to give you what ever the online equivalent of a hand shake is. but try not to do it a third time. its much better for everyone to not behave like a douche in the first place, rather than to do it and appologise for it afterwards.
sorry hugh, i know this has gotten a bit serious, i know salsa for you is your escape, but for some people here its a way of life, a job, a career, what puts food on the table, im trying my best to defend those people.
