![]() Salsa, one of the few Latin American dances that has gained and maintained worldwide popularity got its start in the style of music known as Cuban son, a fusion of Spanish guitar and song, with percussion of African origin. However, time led this popular dance to be heavily influenced by the music styles of other Latin American countries as well as the American jazz. Salsa dance contains its own set of choreographed steps. The arms and legs of couples executing this routine dance move in complete natural harmony, making this dance seem not only energetic, but also beautiful and sensual. According to its first dancers, musicians and composers, Salsa is an umbrella term that contains a large set of many different Cuban and Latin American rhythms: la guaracha, el guaguancó, mambo, chachachá and most of all, the son Montuno. Since all of these styles were extremely difficult to differentiate, the single term “salsa” was coined in the 1970’s to refer to all of these musical styles as a collective. don Quijtote offes you the opportunity to take an Intensive Spanish course while at the same time, enjoy a salsa dance class with your friends and classmates!
