About Me

Originally from the midwest (that place between here and "back east"), I moved to Calif. for school and stayed to interact with the "natives" (is anyone really from here?). Most people know me from the Latin music and dance scene where I've been a fixture for years - teaching Salsa dancing in nightclubs and studios. I'm currently teaching at Cafe Cocomo in San Francisco. I'm also a percussionist playing with the Salsa band Humbria and Son band ParkWay Son. And I'm a contributing editor to the new Salsa lifestyle magazine iSalsa. You can read that online at iSalsa.net Check out my dance site at www.SalsabyJake.com

My Interests

Smart and talented people - how original! Those who are aware of their surroundings would suffice. People who want to make the world a better place, and have some fun in the process...CHECK OUT MY YOUTUBE VIDEOS AT www.SalsaHumor.com - Salsa Satire is here!!
