TULUM, Mayan Riviera (Aug. 8, 2007) - If icy cold margaritas, swaying coconut palms
and aquamarine waters lapping white sand beaches make you want to break out your
dancing shoes then La Zebra Beach Cantina & Cabanas in Tulum is the place to be with
their free beach salsa lessons and sultry Sunday night fiesta set to live Latin
fusion music.

From Thursday to Sunday starting at 6 pm, La Zebra's outdoor hardwood deck
overlooking the beach heats up with the sounds of sizzling salsa music and
hip-shaking dance moves. The hour-long class is led by instructors Emmanuel Tabares,
whose passion for the art inspired him to pick it up on his own, and Lisa Hodges,
who has studied dance her whole life and specialized in salsa at a top dance studio
in Brighton, England. It is open free of charge to anyone and everyone - including
the general public, many of whom stop to watch the show from the beach. Two-for-one
margaritas from the traditional Mexican cantina and a wide variety of tropical fruit
drinks and dozens of the country's famed alcohol distilled from the blue agave are
on tap to whet thirst at the tequila bar.

"La Zebra is known for its laidback, welcoming attitude, and free salsa classes on
the beach really represent what our relaxed vibe is about," explains manager Heather
Froeming. "It's so great for people to be able to walk up from the beach and join a
class in progress that has hotel guests, La Zebra staff and kids all having a great
time learning the art of the dance."
And Sunday nights after the class, the entire cantina is transformed into a
high-energy salsa fiesta with live Latin fusion by musical entertainers
Pocos Pero Locos and The Bohemios setting the mood until 11 pm. Party-goers
feast on succulent dishes straight from the fire of the brick-lined pit
roast: juicy beer-marinated lamb slow cooked in banana leaves, cochinita
pibil pork roasted in the pit with Mayan spices, and lamb tacos served with
La Zebra's famous five fresh salsas.

For beach-goers who want to start the party early, La Zebra's colorful lounges on
Tulum's best beach, hammocks strung strategically from shady palms and DJ salsa
music piped into outdoor speakers provide the ideal backdrop. The pit roast menu is
available all day Sunday and beach-side service from the cantina ensures guests can
soak up the sun and set the mood for the fiesta that follow.

La Zebra Beach Cantina & Cabanas reopened early this year with a fresh, new concept,
authentic cantina restaurant and bar, and nine renovated rooms that revived the
rustic, traditional Mexican beach vacation once found throughout Tulum. Check the
