The Denver Turnverein is a membership organization; the home of four major dance communities (Lindy, Salsa, Tango, West Coast Swing) and a chorus. Many nights there are over a hundred people, from novices to instructors, dancing together.
. Our 5,000 sq. foot ballroom, is a favorite spot for dances, concerts and other moderately sized social gatherings.

NEW YORK CITY
Gemini Lounge -
221 Second Avenue (between 13th & 14th Streets), NYC. 212-254-5260. Tuesdays
after 10:00 PM are samba nights. Showtime after 11:00 PM. Call club for other
nights with latin music.
Gonzales Y Gonzales - 625 Broadway (between Bleeker & Houston), NYC. 212-473-8787. Live bands on certain nights playing a mix of latin music, some salsa. Depending on the night, especially on the weekends, this club can be very crowded, with pretty chaotic dancing. G & G has a very popular bar scene, and a very eclectic crowd and charged atmosphere. I have heard that Wednesday nights are less crowded, and sometimes enjoyable for dancers, with some OK dancers on the floor, and usually a few dancing "On 2". And sometimes, a group of very good dancers comes. But you may wish to bring partner(s) just to be sure you'll have some mambo company.
