RICHMOND, Va. – The second annual RVA Salsa Bachata Congress event continued Saturday in Richmond.
The three-day event features internationally known dance instructions, performers and DJs who offer demonstrations and classes for dancers of all skill levels.
A group from William & Mary took the top prize in the collegiate dance competition, CBS 6 reported.
“It was choreographed by a group of us,” a member of the William & Mary Salsa Club said. “We’ve been putting a lot of hard work in and I’m just really proud of everyone.”
As part of the prize, the troupe got to perform with professional salsa dancers during a special show.
The goal of the event, which continues Sunday at the Delta Hotel by Marriott Downtown, is to spread the benefits of Latin dance throughout the Richmond area.
