SAYAWAN NA!!!! Hello and Kamusta!! I am Noel Gamboa – dubbed as “Mr. Pinoy Linedance” and my goal is to make you and your friends dance for fun and fitness!! I am a NY based professional DJ/Emcee and Linedance Leader for Parties and Fundraisers all over the US. (First of all – please note that linedance is not totally “country/cowboy/yeehaw”, which I am not opposed to, but is just not my zone.!) I am here to share with you my collection of original as well as favorite latin-based linedances that are featured in my “Sabayle” events. Sabayle means linedance together. There are MANY linedances out there, but I have handpicked the best, easy to follow and most fun linedances for parties, exercise workouts, and gatherings. There are official “linedance” jargon however I have used common language and the power of video to teach people of all levels. I am a Filipino American artist/dj/architect based in New York, and have composed and produced 2 albums, Manila Nights and Sayawan Na!/ Pinoy Dance Mix. My sound and dance steps are primarily “filatino” – vibrant latin with Filipino pop and folk influence…I also love singing in Tagalog (my mother tongue) which is a blend of Spanish, Malay, Polynesian, Indonesian, and Chinese origins, and spreading this good vibe globally. My big break was composing for Martin Nievera the song “Giliw”, and performing front acts for Gary Valenciano, Leo Valdez, and other NY visiting artists. Later on I started producing “Manila Nights” dance parties in Manhattan, and realizing that there is a lack of popular Filipino dance music, I committed myself to produce and promote Sabayle at parties and events for my kababayans (countrymen) as well as the world to enjoy!!!
