Due to the Coronavirus pandemic and social distancing recommendations of the local health authorities, Lux Mambo Nights is cancelled until further notice. Stay tuned, we will be back when it’s safer again! While for most young and healthy dancers catching the virus might not be a serious problem, following official recommendations is important to help protect the larger community we belong to. The Santa Clara County Public Health Department recommends that we all take assert...ive measures to inhibit or at least slow down the spread of the virus, allowing health care providers and government infrastructure the critical time they need to prepare and treat as many patients as possible. Thank you for understanding! Carolyn, Stefan, and DJ Omambo
