Origins of Salsa

Salsa (the dance) comes from a huge number of influences including Cuban son and danzon, and North American swing. The music similarly, has evolved from Africa, through Cuba and Puerto Rico and through the big-band jazz of the U.S.

It has become very popular in recent years and you can now find a class in almost every major city in Europe, if not the world.

It combines positive-energy Latin music with se nsual turn patterns danced with a partner.

At Danzon for salsa in Dublin, we teach principally LA-style salsa (also called ‘cross-body on 1’). This is the most common style of salsa in the UK and Ireland.
