What you'll learn in this latin dance class:

Social Latin dancing, which includes the Salsa, Mambo, Merengue, Rumba, ChaCha, Samba, and other offshoots, originated in places like Cuba, Brazil, Puerto Rico, and the Dominican Republic, but the dances have been embraced worldwide.

In the 1950s and 1960s New York City became a hub for Latin music and dance, and Latin clubs continue to open and thrive in our city today. Latin culture has widened its appeal through television, film and theater as well.

Latin music has become mainstream, with popular performers such as Jennifer Lopez, Marc Anthony, Christina Aguilera, Enrique Iglesias, and Ricky Martin becoming household names.

Some typical “flavors” of social Latin you will encounter here are:

ChaCha – also called Cha-Cha-Cha, this is a social dance which encompasses styles ranging from funky NY street, smoother social ballroom, competitive American Rhythm, competitive International Latin, and even Country Western.
Rumba – a social ballroom dance, sensual and slow, with similarities to American Rhythm. International Latin’s Rumba differs in timing and technique, though it shares social Rumba’s sensuality.
Samba – joyous, with a distinctive “bounce” action, this social dance is similar to the same dance in International Latin.
Jive – A high energy and uninhibited form of swing, with sharp kicks and flicks
Paso Doble – A dramatic marching dance that portrays the leader as matador and the follower as the bull or cape.

Question from penny

will there be any other costs if I sign up for this?

Answer from Georgia C. CourseHorse Staff

Hi Penny, no additional cost after sign up.

Answer

Question from Lea K.

Do we have to come with a partner?

Answer from Seth Q. CourseHorse Staff

Students can come without a partner as the class provider always request classmates to "switch partners" for every move that they teach so that everybody gets a chance to dance with a different partner for all the moves you learn in the class.
