What is Cuban Salsa?
Cuban Salsa, also called Salsa Cubana or Casino, has its roots in Cuba. It uses circular movement and playful turns in which partners move around one another. Rhythm, musicality and improvisation are important elements. Classes give you time to understand both the steps and how to dance them with a partner.
What we work on
Beginner introduces salsa music, basic steps and clear leading and following. Continuation courses develop technique and combinations. As the basics become familiar, there is more room for improvisation and personal expression.
Cuban Salsa or crossbody?
Cuban Salsa often uses circular movement. Crossbody salsa is danced more along a line. Both are built on music, rhythm and connection; choose the style that appeals to you and the appropriate course level for that style.
