The month of may

Just a quick post to say the month of May is very busy for the FairPlay Spanish lessons. We have almost double the customers of any other months, therefor the cooking class was crowded and there was a lot of mingling between the students.

Also the FairPlay volleyball team won a tournament and the members of the team have won a free dinner. Sonya, one of the members of the team had this to say about the day. "I felt really glad when we won, but I did not like losing, I was full of vigor and joy. I especially wanted to win to have the free food" We forgot our camera but we will try to find some photos of the day. We will be back at you with them as soon as possible.

FairPlay is also offering English lessons to the teachers. Here is a foto of the girls in action.

FairSalsa training - week two

It is week two of training for our fantastic salsa teachers, and as you can see from the pictures below (and video in the above post), they're all working hard down in their gym on Avenida de la Cultura. We have seven young men and seven young women, who are being put through their paces by Coco, our brilliant salsa tutor, and Fanny, FairPlay's president. All are young, talented and enthusiastic local people who otherwise would not be able to afford the training they need to secure themselves a brighter future. By September, after four months of intensive training, they will be ready to teach tourists. Not long now until FairSalsa opens its doors to the world! There will be more information as we have it on the FairPlay website, and you can also join our FairSalsa Facebook group to keep up to date with the latest news.
