Are you dancing?

We're asking!

Candour Event Marketing are offering you the chance to salsa your socks off and get paid for it!!

It is for the Surf promotion that you may have heard about on the TV or radio, fronted by Julian Clary
An evening of fun with tuition throughout the evening - three x 1 hour classes, plus 15 minute breaks in between each session
Times 6.30pm - 10.30pm
Locations vary, please see attached
We are looking for 40 males. Age range 18 to 40ish.
You need to have some dance experience (even if it is going to salsa lessons once a week)
Pay = £35 for the evening + £5 travel

Very interesting! Here's the Surf Salsa Your Socks Off promotion page. This might give a welcome summertime boost to salsa in Cardiff.

Why do they only want men?? How sexist! Is the promotion only open to women or something?!

I expect they think more women than men will apply. I'm sure they would be happy if equal numbers of men and women did apply. They would rather pay some men to come, even if they ended up standing around doing nothing, rather than risk have a disappointing event for the women. It is a publicity stunt, after all. They don't want bad publicity.
