Election post
Hey everyone! I’m Rawleka, and I’ve been absolutely HOOKED on salsa for three years now. Joining UCL Salsa Society was one of my best decisions — and if we’ve met, there’s a good chance I’ve already tried to convince you to join me at a social!
Why vote for me? I bring 2 years of experience as a Student Officer in the Student Union, where I successfully organised many events, including 4 free salsa workshops for Black History Month. I’m organised, proactive, and deeply committed to creating an inclusive atmosphere where everyone feels welcome. Having attended the Croatia Salsa Festival and the Paris International Festival, I understand what makes a social successful and exciting.
As social secretary, I would bring exciting events to life, including:
- Regular Meetups at popular salsa venues across London (e.g., Salsa Soho)
- Beginner-Friendly Socials designed to help everyone practice in a relaxed setting
- Salsa & Bachata Festivals like the Croatia Salsa Festival, connecting us with the broader salsa community
- Outdoor Salsa Nights in local parks during the warmer months
- Themed Dance Parties (think ‘90s Salsa Throwback!) to mix things up
- Collaborations with Other Societies & Unis to connect with other dancers
My goal is to create events where we can practice our moves & build our confidence outside of class. With my passion for salsa and proven track record in organising events, I’m excited to create memorable experiences for us all. Vote for me, and let’s make this the best salsa year yet!
