Alisa’s House Of Salsa Hoping To Return To Vineyards Following Recent Debut

March 3, 2026
Salsa instructor extraordinaire Alisa Bowens-Mercado made her way from New Haven to Newtown on Tuesday, February 17 to spend the night dancing away for the first time in the indoor space of Aquila’s Nest Vineyards.
The night began with the sounds of Latin America floating through the air, and Bowens-Mercado took a moment to discuss her 26 years of teaching with The Newtown Bee.
