Salsa is a sexy, energetic and fun partner dance that originated in Cuba and Puerto Rico.
Salsa expresses joy of life, connection, sensuality and lightness. That's why the soulful hip swing and the joy of the dancers are of particular importance for this dance.
A plus point is that dance partners are often switched, which offers the opportunity to get to know new people quickly. It can therefore happen that a lady experiences 10-30 different dance partners on a salsa evening.
