The HISTORY of
Salsa Dancing!
As we all know, the popularity of Salsa is just phenomenal! But how did it all come about, Salsa music and Salsa dancing? Where did it originate and how did it actually become the dance we dance today?! The short 3 part video documentary I found about The History of Salsa Dancing is incredibly interesting and lots of fun to watch! Have look, learn and educate yourself more about how the intoxicating rhythm of Salsa dancing came about! Video >> HERENOTE: Once on the page >> click on the tab that says "The History of Salsa Dancing". |
