Salsa dancing

Salsa dancing is a lively, rhythmic partner dance originating from Caribbean and Latin American cultures. It involves coordinated movements where partners respond to the music's beat, often performing spins, turns, and smooth movements across the dance floor. The dance emphasizes improvisation, connection, and rhythm, typically set to energetic tunes with syncopated percussion. Salsa can be danced socially or competitively, blending elements from Afro-Cuban, Puerto Rican, and other Latin dance traditions. It requires timing, communication between partners, and a sense of groove, making it both an expressive art form and an enjoyable social activity.
