LATIN DANCING

You've seen it on television shows Dancing with the Stars and America's Got Talent. Now begin the journey of Latin Dancing today at Faulkner's.

Faulkner's teaches authentic Latin Dancing and emphasize posture, step patterns, leading and following skills, and interpreting the music. Salsa music is hot and so is the dance. With its tight, compact movements, Salsa is an exciting dance to latin music and along with bachata, cha cha, merengue is one of the most popular club dances around today. Salsa is a more contemporary name for the same step pattern as Mambo, and came about when dancers started adding Hustle steps to Mambo. Many of these dances grew from the Cuban culture. There was a blending of European dancing - the contredanse - with African rhythms, which turned into the danzon. A later development was more syncopation with an integration with jazz and eventually leading into mambo and cha cha.

Latin Dancing is available for children ages 5 - adult.
