Dancing is a healthy way to physically connect to someone, preferable to giving them a painful bear hug or sewing your head onto their body. Get cheek-to-cheek with today’s Groupon to Bay Area International Latin Events in St. Petersburg. Choose between the following options:
- For $25, you get three drop-in salsa-dancing lessons (a $60 value).
- For $59, you get a six-week Intro to Latin Dance class and one private lesson (a $160 value).
Bay Area International Latin Events' owner and instructor Greg "DJ Muevete" Richardson leads up to 24 students through the sultry steps of salsa, merengue, and bachata at scenic St. Pete Pier. Over six weeks, 50-minute classes explore the fundamental steps, rhythm, and Telemundo advertisements that compose Latin choreography. Each week's class builds on the last week's steps, with a 25-minute private lesson ensuring singles fully master the flirtatious footwork of each dance. Drop-in classes offer singles a flexible way to experience the partnered promenade of salsa, teaching students basic skills and rhythms and preparing them for Salsa II courses, where they learn the leading and following techniques that distinguish all great dancers and Simon Says champions.

The Groupon Guide to: Writing an Urban Legend
Everyone secretly wants to believe in scary stories that might be true. Indulge your friends' gullibility with these tips to crafting the perfect urban legend:
• Make sure the story takes place somewhere nearby, on a similar night—ideally exactly 100 years ago to the night. Or on the devil’s birthday.
• Always include an animal that turns out to be a different animal or an animal where one does not belong—like a dog that is actually a rat, or an alligator in the bathroom of the Museum of Alligator Safety.
• Tweak the details—it's only a few letters’ difference to change "gardener" to "murderer," and only a small white lie to change "was valued by the community" to "possessed double hook hands and a thirst for marrow."
• Always carry "proof"—this can be a monster's tooth carved from soap, a faded newspaper article created in Photoshop, or a scrap of the victim's clothing that is actually just a scrap of clothing you ripped off a terrified hiker you chased through the woods.
