Congrats to Our Performers
Thanks to everyone who came out to our first social at ABAKUA's new home, You Should Be Dancing!. The night has to have been the most memorable social in the history of our event. A large part of its success has to be given to the 11 dedicated students who took part in Manny's 12 week performance program. These students displayed true dedication throughout the program and put on a show in which they can all take pride. If you see them around the studio or at a Starbuck's near you, be sure to take a moment to say "congrats!". If you missed the performance, you can catch a glimpse of the show on www.mambonyc.com listed under "Manny's Performance Project".
