Some people say that "cha-cha" is too dull, disco is too spontaneous, waltz is too programmed, compared to the comparison, it seems that the Salsa (Salsa) seems to be more enthusiastic and unrestrained, cheerful and straightforward. Nowadays, Salsa is popular all over the world, its charm crosses over the region, and its enthusiasm reaches to every corner of the world. Last weekend, with great curiosity, I went with my friends to "SalsaShanghaiDancingGroup" located in Xiangming Middle School on Ruijin Road to have a glimpse of the hot passion of Salsa. As a Latin-style dance, its passionate and unrestrained dance style is not inferior to rumba and cha-cha-cha, but it is easier to get started than them, and compared with rumba and cha-cha-cha-cha and other Latin dances, salsa dancers also have more room for spontaneous play.
Hot dance like chili sauce
When I came to the salsa classroom in the evening, I could hear the passionate salsa dance music before I entered the door. After stepping into the classroom, I found that the students who came here to learn salsa dance could not wait to twirl and stride to the dance music. Shirley and Bob, the salsa instructors, also demonstrated the dynamic and attractive dance moves to the students.
Shirley introduced to the author, "Salsa" from the Spanish, is the name of a kind of sauce made of chili peppers, and Slasa represents the same meaning as the flavor of this sauce, very "hot". Slasa is the same flavor as this sauce, very "hot". If she had to define salsa, Shirley would say it's a modified mambo with a jazzy twist, featuring exuberant salsa music and fancy dancing and twirling.
The Magic Dance of Love
Salsa is a strong rhythmic duo dance that emphasizes the cooperation and understanding between two people, so some people call salsa "the magic dance of love".
Nowadays, it is more and more popular among white-collar workers. In Shanghai, salsa first appeared in the bar, when most people still lack of understanding of salsa, but really come to the bar, but will be attracted by the enthusiasm, can not help but dance. Later, salsa dance gradually from the bar into the gym, people found that, with the general Latin dance is different, salsa dance is very simple to learn, about learning a month or two, will be able to follow the music in the party dancing. And after jumping can also fully release emotions, reduce stress, make people become pleasant and relaxed.
The tacit understanding between partners is very important
In the salsa class, Shirley and Bob divide the lessons into basic one and two classes and intermediate one, two and three classes. In the basic class, they simplify the complicated steps of the masters at the dance into three to four basic steps and three to four basic spinning steps. If you can master these steps and spins, you will have mastered nearly 80 percent of the Salsa steps.
Basic class 2, is to enter the stage of two people blocking, this is a very interesting stage, the coach will teach the man how to "row plume", that is, to give the lady a signal, and the signal to express the meaning of the woman, the lady and how to "catch the plume! "Sometimes a look from the partner is to tell you to turn around. With the lady's waist, shoulders, hips, abdomen twisting, will be sexy, charming performance. It is said that in South America, Latin musicians will improvise music on the street, and passers-by will stop and smell the salsa. The air is filled with the joyful atmosphere of Fiesta (Latin: street party), and passion is instantly triggered.
