At that time, Cuba was a transit point for African slaves to be sold to North America, and those slaves with poor physical fitness were left there. Although these slaves had to work in chains, they didn't forget to dance. They often dance some simple steps when farming. At that time, the instruments they used to accompany were also very simple, just some daily necessities. After continuous evolution, in the 1920s of 19, salsa dance basically formed its present dance movements. At the end of 1960s, salsa dance blended with the style of American jazz dance, became more entertaining and expressive, and became popular all over the world. Salsa (salsa) originally refers to a kind of sauce in Spanish, which is a kind of spicy ketchup that Latin Americans especially like. The use of salsa in Latin music originated from 1933. Ignacio Pinero, a Cuban composer, was inspired and wrote a song "Add a little sauce! "Because the food he eats is not so spicy and has no Cuban flavor. The song "Echale Salsita" initiated a new era of salsa dance in Latin American music and dance. The acridity of salsa sauce has been transformed into people's daily spoken language, and combined with music, it has become a catalyst for enthusiasm. After the 1960s, several well-known composers and singers, such as Cal Tjader, Rafania, Santana and so on, released records in the name of salsa one after another, describing dancing as wild as salsa sauce, and singing the lyrics that dancers should use * * * enthusiasm to boil the audience. Since then, Latin music has been labeled as salsa. Salsa's music style and dance have blossomed everywhere in the United States and spread all over the world. Salsa dance combines the steps of Latin dance and jazz dance, with hips, waist, hips and inner thighs as its main body parts. Dancing salsa can not only strengthen the cardiopulmonary function and improve the flexibility of the body, but also enhance the function of modifying the curves of hips and legs. For beginners, the first thing to do is to relax all over, and don't compete with shoulders and hips. As long as you keep up with the coach's beat and pace, you can dance beautiful salsa steps. Don't underestimate the basic rhythm of training. Whether you can jump out of Sasha's feeling depends on this first level. In salsa dancing, music is as important as dance steps. Twist your body with rhythmic music and feel the fusion of dance steps and music. Dance is not particularly important at this time, what matters is mood. When you feel happy, you will realize the true meaning of this dance. The popular Japanese salsa dance is a duet with a strong sense of rhythm, which pays attention to the cooperation and tacit understanding between two people. In the eyes of people around you, men and women who dance salsa seem to be in love, so some people call salsa dance "a magical dance that breeds love." It is becoming more and more popular with the Japanese. In the early 1990s, a special salsa dance club appeared in Japan, but at that time, most Japanese people still lacked understanding of salsa dance, and the business of the club was deserted. But in a few years, the Japanese discovered many advantages of salsa dance: it is easy to learn, and it can fully release emotions and relieve stress after dancing. This is also the case. Because of the fierce competition in Japanese society and the Japanese themselves are not very good at communication and expression, it is easy to accumulate nervous emotions, and salsa dancing can make people feel happy and relaxed. As a result, a "salsa frenzy" gradually swept through Japan from 10 years ago, and it is still hot. Cuba, which has been isolated from the world for nearly 40 years, is an island country in the Caribbean, which has bred world-class cigars and is the birthplace of pop music: Son of God, Rumba, Mambo and Salsa. The evolution of Cuban history has a far-reaching impact on the development of music. Two hundred years ago, Cuba was a sea transfer station for Spanish colonists to transport gold mines. The ships are moored with wooden nails to connect all the ships. The sound of Spanish sailors and slaves from Africa knocking on nails turned into a magical rhythm, which is the origin of Latin music rhythm today. In the19th century, Cuba was a major sugar exporter in the world. Due to the demand of agricultural labor, a large number of African slaves were sold here, and African drum music and African sacrificial ceremonies of polytheism were introduced to Cuba, which became the main driving force of Sasha music today. Salsa dance originated from Song Yu's music, which combines the strong rhythm of Africa with the Spanish country folk songs of Santiago in eastern Cuba. Ode music is the prototype of many Latin American musical styles and the source of Chacha, Mambo and Salsa. In the 1930s, during Batista's administration, the relationship with the United States was very close, and the main domestic industries were monopolized by American capitalists. At that time, a considerable number of American tourists and businessmen engaged in investment poured in. The bars and nightclubs in Havana were the social places of the upper class at that time. In the big environment, salsa with various elements was created and spread to the whole United States and even the whole America. With the success of the Cuban revolution in the 1970s and Castro's dictatorship, many Cuban artists went into exile in the United States and even spread Cuban songs and Latin rhythms all over the world. New york can be said to be a melting pot of Latin music, art and dance, and new york Sasha was developed. When Celia Cruz, known as the "Queen of Salsa", sang Salsa in new york, the sanctions imposed by the United States on Cuba did not decrease at all, and the spread of musicians' voices in Cuba was hindered. The world has gradually forgotten this Caribbean island country that exports countless songs with tobacco and sucrose. Puerto Rican musicians replaced Cuban musicians in Latin America and played commercial versions of Cuban folk songs all over the world. Interestingly, political opposition is also manifested in Salsa in Cuba and Salsa in new york, where opposition and competition are intertwined. In the 1990s, with Castro's opening for sightseeing, European and American music producers and record companies came to Cuba to look for treasures, relive the golden age of Cuban music and reproduce the world with traditional rather than commercial Latin music. In the 1990s, Cuban carol music once again surprised the world music scene. Development status quo Salsa is Spanish. As long as the music is played, the body will twist and the audience will boil. Salsa continues the basic structure of carol music and adds more intense dance elements, which has always been the popular tone in Latin American countries. "Salsa phenomenon" is closely related to the life of Latin American people. From clubs to family gatherings and even the streets, from old people to children, whether workers or upper class, Sasha has no barriers of age and class, but has developed a variety of styles and features, such as a little sweet and sour sauce and spicy taste. Salsa became the spokesperson of Latin dance, combining the steps of ode, rumba, mambo and cha-cha. Whether it is a duet, a female body or a free solo, Sasha's intimate contact and unique sexy dance steps give full play to the charm of women and the heroism of men between twisting her waist and swinging her hips. Salsa has a history of several decades in Europe and America, and salsa fanaticism has been aroused in Japan, South Korea, Thailand and even Shanghai, Beijing and other Asian regions.

Overview of Cuban Salsa Cuban Salsa is the most traditional style among all kinds of Salsa. Other kinds, such as Mambo, Modern Salsa, new york Salsa and Colombian Salsa, appeared later than Cuban Salsa and were all based on Cuban Salsa. This is a dance from Cuba, mixed with many rock elements from new york. The main difference between Cuban salsa and new york mambo salsa is that Cuban salsa dancers make circular movements when they dance around each other and around the venue, while in new york mambo salsa, everyone's dance steps are straight. Cuban salsa dance is based on the development of traditional music. At the beginning of the 20th century, many new musical instruments were brought to Cuba by slaves, such as bongo drum, double bass and cowbell, which led to the emergence of a new music form in Cuba. People call it "the son of Cuba", which is produced by slaves playing music and drumming each other. Dancers began to dance to this music, and Cuban salsa dance was born. The origin of salsa dance is not a patent of Cuba, but we have enough reasons to believe that salsa dance originated in the Caribbean island country of Cuba. At that time, there was a country dance (anti-Danze) introduced from Britain and France, later known as Danzón, which was brought to Cuba by a Frenchman in exile in Haiti. Danzón is slowly combined with rumba dance originated in Africa, and at the same time with Cuba Són (Só n was founded by a Spanish folk singer Sonero, which is a kind of dance accompaniment music with stronger rhythm. The degree of this combination is not as great as imagined, and there will be differences in many countries, such as Dominica, Colombia and Puerto Rico. Bands from these countries brought their own music to Mexico City, because at that time, the movies there were the most famous. (For example, the Cuban composer Perez Prado is a very famous one) soon spread to new york, USA. With more promotion and styles, these dances have made great progress and become more commercial. New york people first started to use the name salsa, but new york people didn't create salsa dance. This name is popular because new york people adopted this nickname-like name for the different styles of music in the countries influenced by Spain at that time. These dances generally include: rumba, Montuno, Gualacha, Mambo, Chacha, Dansong, Sen, Guguaco, Kubopu, Guajira, Chalanga, Kambia, Prenat, Bamba, Festou Huo, Melenge and so on. Some of them continue to maintain their own characteristics, while others eventually blend into Sasha. Today's salsa dance often has a son's accent. In some salsa dances, you can even find the shadow of old-fashioned Mireg. Even many modern salsa dances still retain the old style features of the past. Salsa dancing is different in different regions. For example, in new york, because some Colombian original songs are made with a lot of new musical instruments and a lot of percussion sounds with good effects, new york people feel very comfortable to dance to the beat of music when dancing mambo, which is not particularly easy to find in early music. However, when the creation of Sasha music is considered to have entered the late stage and can enter the local market, it is found that this so-called "late stage" is unrealistic. Because Colombians don't dance to the salsa rhythm of Puerto Rico or "post-Cuba", we call it "post-Cuba" here because the local music in Cuba has gradually formed another new style. Species Distribution From here we can see that Sasha is like a lush tree, with many branches and a trunk connecting them. Salsa dance is popular in the whole Spanish-speaking world and has established many different styles under the influence of many local cultures. If you think salsa dance is a local culture, it means that you don't understand the status of salsa dance in Spanish-speaking countries. If you think that only one style is the best, it is also a misunderstanding. For example, there is a dancer who is best at a certain style. As there was no partner, he found one at random and took her to a club to dance. This is because everyone has their own dance style. There is nothing better, but each one is different. Therefore, the world of salsa dance is colorful, and it is a huge dance type representing different regional cultures. Continuous integration, development and innovation are the important reasons why salsa dance is popular all over the world. Salsa dancing in Los Angeles style is like everything from Los Angeles, Hollywood and Southern California. The characteristics of salsa dance in Los Angeles style are sensational, fast and powerful, which makes everything impossible so easy. The salsa dance style in Los Angeles combines traditional salsa dance with jazz dance, street dance, ballroom dance, swing dance and ballet. On the stage, people can see at a glance that these people are dancing salsa in the style of Los Angeles, because their dance is so eye-catching and sensational. They attach great importance to the first beat and always jump from the first beat of music. It is this Los Angeles style that makes numerous salsa dances popular, and also makes "Hollywood" salsa performances popular. These performances require costumes, theme songs and dance skills. This is the most popular dance form in America and abroad. In Memphis, we also dance salsa in the style of Los Angeles. Salsa Dance The founders of Los Angeles salsa dance are Luis, Joby Vazquez, Francisco Vazquez, Johnny Vasquez, Edgar "Tun Tun" Mendes, Teresa zamorano, Alex da Silva, Josie Negria, Solomon Rivera and Edie the Salsa Madman. New york-style salsa dance and new york-style salsa dance were developed by new york's great mambo dancers and influenced by new york's ballroom dance The Big Apple. Because this dance is gentle, people can easily recognize it as a salsa dance in new york style. New york people pay attention to controlling the beat, dancing style and skills. Whenever you watch salsa dances in new york style, you will find that they are always calm. Surprisingly, their twisting movements are perfect. When they dance, they pay attention to the second beat and start dancing from the second beat of the music. New york-style salsa dancing has become as popular as a prairie fire in many American cities and abroad. This salsa dance is very popular in new york and most parts of the East Coast. You will hear some dancers call new york-style salsa by other names, such as "Puerto Rican style" or "second beat". The founders of new york salsa dance include Angel, Eddie Rodriguez, Eddie Torres, Thain Bristol, El otero, Eddie Diaz, Juan matos, Luis Zegarra and Nelson Flores. Miami-style salsa dancing Miami-style salsa dancing is often called "dancing casino". This salsa style is very unique because it is directly influenced by Cuba, the birthplace of salsa. You can often easily recognize those who dance Miami salsa, because they are dancing in a group, and several people turn around and change partners simultaneously. Miami dancers are famous for their complicated turn combinations. Ladies in Miami should let their arms relax, so that men can hold their arms well in the process of rapid twisting, which can't be done in new york or LA style. Another feature of Miami-style salsa dance is that it has a "preparation" step, that is, the dancer takes an eight-beat before the first beat of music begins. Miami-style salsa dance is dominant in South Florida. The development of Cambrian salsa dance originated in the northern coastal areas of Colombia. "Cumbia" is actually another style of passionate music relative to salsa. Compared with the music of salsa, Kambia music has the rhythm of eight beats, so it can be used to dance salsa. You can dance salsa with Cumbia music, but you can't dance Cumbia with salsa music. Salsa Dance Because this style of dance is a round dance, everyone has a "circle" action before turning around, so the characteristic of Cumbia style salsa is to return to the basic dance steps in the future. This style dominates all salsa dances in Latin America. In Costa Rica, they call Cumbia "swing dance". Almost no real Cumbia school was found, and no professional teacher was found to teach Cumbia. Anyone who dances Cumbia will tell you that they either learned it from their parents or friends at the dance or from the Latin club. Because of this, many Kambia dancers call themselves "street dancers", and they have never participated in formal training courses. Icelandic is the name in Icelandic, which means salsa.
