Salsa Wild, the local Contemporary Dance club in Dartford, is excited to announce a mesmerising Salsa Dance event that is sure to captivate all dance enthusiasts! Whether you're a seasoned dancer or just starting out, this event promises to be a night filled with passion, rhythm, and pure dance magic. So mark your calendars and get ready to experience the vibrant world of Salsa Dance!
For those unfamiliar with Salsa Dance, it is a beautiful partnered dance where the lead guides the follow through a series of spins and turn patterns, all perfectly synchronised to the infectious beats of Salsa music. But that's not all, salsa dancers also have the chance to break apart during a dance and showcase their solo moves, known as “shines”. It's an exhilarating combination of partner work and individual artistry that never fails to impress.
Now, let's talk about the different styles of Salsa that you can expect to see at this event. Firstly, we have the popular linear salsa styles, such as New York style and LA style. In New York style salsa, dancers stay within their designated “slot”, gracefully switching positions from one side to the other, while LA style salsa adds an extra flair by breaking forward on the first beat of the music. Both styles offer a unique and captivating dance experience that will leave you in awe.
On the other hand, we have the circular salsa styles, namely Cuban style and Colombian style. In these styles, dancers move in a mesmerising circular pattern around each other, reminiscent of the energetic East Coast Swing. It's a lively and infectious style that will have you swaying and moving to the rhythm in no time.
But wait, there's more! Salsa Dance has also become a melting pot of different dance styles, with dancers incorporating various techniques and movements to create new and innovative fusions. From shimmies and leg work to body movement and spins, the possibilities are endless. You might even witness some amazing acrobatics and lifts that will leave you breathless.
Now, let's talk about the music. Salsa music is tailor-made for dancing, with rhythms ranging from 150 bpm to around 250 bpm. The core groove of a salsa song is set by the clave, an instrument played with two wooden sticks. Every instrument in a salsa band either plays with the clave or dances independently to create a harmonious and energetic sound. It's the perfect accompaniment to showcase your dance moves and let loose on the dance floor.
So, if you're ready to immerse yourself in the vibrant world of Salsa Dance, head over to Salsa Wild's Contemporary Dance event. It's a night you won't want to miss!
