About
Salsa
Salsa is a partner dance danced in a quick-quick-slow rhythm across eight counts. Most scenes lead and follow in a slot or a circle, and the feel ranges from theatrical and turn-heavy to grounded and footwork-driven depending on the sub-style.
Sub-styles you'll meet
- LA-style (On1)
- Slot-based, broken on the 1, fast and showy — the most common entry point worldwide.
- New York (On2 / mambo)
- Slot-based, broken on the 2, smoother and more grounded; the Eddie Torres lineage out of NYC.
- Colombian (Cali style)
- Fast, low, footwork-heavy; Cali, Colombia is its home and the densest salsa scene on earth.
