A. Samba (samba)

It is a synthesis of Africans and South Americans, the earliest guitar, the beat is slower, with a serenade-like mood, and rich in enthusiasm and lively atmosphere. Later, British dancers traveled to Rio de Janeiro to observe and collect local Samba dances, and after returning to the United States, they did some sorting out of Samba dances and determined the names of the steps and the unified jumping method, which became the current Samba dance. It belongs to the moving dance, like tango and waltz, and must be around the dance floor. Music: 4/4.
Two, cha, cha, cha, cha (cha, cha, cha)
Originally from Mexico, Cuba and other places in Central America, it is a deformation of the mambo, but today's cha, cha, cha is more popular than the mambo, more popular, mainly because of this dance gives a bright and light feeling. Because the natives of South America played the music of the mambo faster and added percussion instruments to make it the cha, cha, cha of today. The dance of mambo is softer and has a bigger twist at the waist, while the dance of cha, cha, cha is more lively and the steps are crisp and clear without any delay. Music: 4/4.
Three, rumba (rumba)
Rumba dance originated in Cuba, so it is also known as Cuban rumba. Four or five hundred years ago, black Africans were sent to the Americas as slaves by the white man. The black Africans were far from home, oppressed in Cuba, living in hardship, and homesickness, which led to the creation of mournful folk songs. Slowly, this sad tune was influenced by the local climate, and evolved into a lazy music style, coupled with Latin America's unique percussion instruments, which made the rumba more romantic atmosphere. The Africans in Cuba danced to this music to express their depression and formed the Rumba. Today's rumba has lost its sadness, but the hypnotic atmosphere of the performance is still very strong, making the rumba more popular. Music: 4/4, second beat, about thirty to forty bars per minute.
Four, bullfighting dance (paso doble)
This is the march of Spain, the music is majestic and majestic, the dance style is full of masculine flavor. Every place in Spain is a bullfighting dance instead of a marching dance. Bullfighting is influenced by bullfighting and the evolution of the dance. The brass band above the entrance of the bullfighting arena always plays marching music, which is the so-called bullfighting music in Spain, and the inspiration for the formation of the bullfighting dance comes from this kind of music. It is also because of this music that the bullfighting theater itself is inspired. In short, bullfighting is an interpretation of bullfighting; the male dancers can be compared to bullfighters, while the female dancers represent the red capes used to attract the attention of the bulls. The categorization of bullfighting as a Latin American dance is incredible, because it is purely European and of Spanish origin.
Five, cowboy dance (jive)
