There are many styles of salsa dance depending on the region it is being taught at. Like in New York, you will find the New York style salsa. This style of salsa is a perfect blend of the aged Mambo steps, NYC jazz and swing dance beats. This style of salsa is basically referred to the salsa on 2 dance which means salsa on the break of the second beat or step. Most of the other countries prefer sticking to the salsa on 1 dance. Matching up to the beats of the conga drum is most vital while performing the on 2 salsa.
Every dance form requires practice and so does salsa. Continuous practice of this dance form is the only way a person can perfect this art. Salsa teachers persuade their students to listen to the conga music more often in order to understand the rhythm and steps better. Better understanding and knowledge along with passion and dedication helps salsa dancers to master this dance form.
If you follow the instructions of your teacher properly, you and your partner will surely become masters in this dance. And who knows, you might have people lined up to learn salsa from you once they watch your performance.
