Latin Cha Cha

The Dazzling Darling Of Latin Beats - Salsa!
Salsa a dance performance of a passionate romance.
From the influences of mambo, samba, rumba, cha-cha-cha, and others comes salsa - the youngest of the Latin-American dance royalties. Sexy, sensual and passionate characterizes each movement and moment of its performance. In the late 1950's, it first came out of the limelight and made noise from Cuba to New York. From then on, it continuously evolved from an eccentric combination of Latin American dances and formed its own eccentric modern identity. It combined the music of Afro and Latin beats, while blending sensual and sophisticated modern dance movements.
Salsa has many popular meanings - music, food, dance and others. Nevertheless, salsa is a lifestyle. Sensuality, sexy, passion and romance, are what it suggests. Music, dance and all else are just part of a hot passionate lifestyle that goes along with the dance; more than that it is a lifestyle of romance, elegance and passion.
Salsa dance is known for its expressive sensual dance moves. It requires movements from all parts of the body - foot, hips, hands, neck, shoulders. For salsa, each body-movement is a language that connotes meaning. It is a dance of communication, a body interaction initiated in a medium of music and beat where partners communicate using their body. Each body action has an equivalent response.
Salsa dancing could burn dance floors with flaming hot motions of romantic desire. It is as if scattered potions filled the air to indulge people in a mood for love. With passionate execution of movements, thumb-thumping heart beats, and a free flowing aesthetically beautiful dance moves, a dance can actually speak language of emotion and passion.
Salsa dancing is always good entertainment. Its eye catching body motions and positions is always an alluring view for any one from different cultures. It can bring out the irresistible sexy figure of the dancers, on both man and woman. Instantly, the couple can suddenly become the most romantic partner on the dance floor. In addition, it can give off impressions of gentleness, sexy and passionate to the dancing couples.
Latin dances such as salsa are expected to be an eye candy. It can instantly attract all kinds of people with its universal language, the body language. Dancers speaking in the language of the body easily leaves off impressions of sophistication and elegance. A woman moving in a beat and rhythm of salsa can make herself the most beautiful on the dance floor while the man partner of the woman becomes the gentleman on the dance floor. It's just a matter of performance.
The most important technique in salsa dancing aside from the foot, hip and body swings and turns, is the ability to dance to the music and improvise gracefully.
Salsa is not about the steps borrowed from rumba, or anywhere else. It is about making a free flowing movement expressing yourself to rhythm of the music. And the more eccentric and improvised it is, the more beautiful it gets. So don't forget to improvise and patent your own moves.
