DANCE DESCRIPTIONS
Salsa - An energetic fun dance, with roots from Latin America. The focus on these classes are on Cuban Salsa. Cuban Salsa is danced on 1, meaning that on the first count the leader takes a step forward and the follower a step backward. The couple rotate clockwise during the dance. There is big room for improvisation, which often leads to fun entangled patterns.
Bachata - A sensual dance originally from the Dominican Republic. It has developed into several different styles and common traits are close partnerwork and smooth movements that fits the slower music.
Rueda - Originate from Cuba. This style of Salsa is danced in a circle with several couples. A caller choose the dance moves by shouting out the name of the move in Spanish and the rest of the group follow. Change of partners around the circle occur often. Many moves are theatrical and contains clapping, shouting and stamping, creating an hilarious atmosphere.
An easy way to make new friends!
NOTE: The Salsa with Rueda for beginners course works fine as an introductory course to Salsa. Many of the moves works directly in ordinary couple Salsa.
