 As we promised several friends by email, here's the start of a new page for
Pinoys who love to dance all over the world. If you want it to grow, then we'll need all
your help. You see, our pockets can't stand the strain of traveling worldwide to
personally check out the dance places. Do check out the Dance
Events Outside Pi'nas. Let's start off with a few recommendations from
Pinoys in North America.
The following places in
Southern California have been compiled by our good friend and 'tukayo' Vikki Bondoc-Lambengco
