Paris in the swing time
Article Abstract:
Partner-swapping has become fashionable in France, and there are a number of night clubs in Paris which are geared to this activity. 'Les Particules Elementaires' is a novel by Michel Houllebecq which was published in 1998 and focused attention on partner-swapping. The Cap d'Agde on the French Languedoc coast is a partner-swapping center for Europe as a whole in the summer time. There used to be activity in the sand dunes, but it is confined to clubs,since the dunes have been policed more thoroughly.

If you were in his shoes
Article Abstract:
Afro-Cuban dance, or salsa, is taking on a higher profile in the UK through dancers such as Eddie Torres, who is regarded as the pioneer of the New York form of salsa. He has worked extremely hard to raise standards of salsa dancing, and has even given advice to other salsa experts. His success is based on the fact that he was the first analyst of modern salsa dance. He now has more than 300 steps annotated and named, and has undertaken a lot of choreography.
