The events bring dancers together to share their passion for the dance, build community, and share moves and tips. These events usually include salsa dance performers, live salsa music, workshops, open dancing, and contests. On the other hand, salsa dancing is also done in very informal settings, such as parties in a home or backyard. Salsa dancing is often seen as an important cultural expression by persons living in certain Hispanic regions or people whose family heritage comes from those regions. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Styles">Styles</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Salsa_(dance)&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Styles"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:India_International_Salsa_Congress_Bangalore,_2004.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/42/India_International_Salsa_Congress_Bangalore%2C_2004.jpg/200px-India_International_Salsa_Congress_Bangalore%2C_2004.jpg" decoding="async" width="200" height="301" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/42/India_International_Salsa_Congress_Bangalore%2C_2004.jpg/300px-India_International_Salsa_Congress_Bangalore%2C_2004.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/42/India_International_Salsa_Congress_Bangalore%2C_2004.jpg/400px-India_International_Salsa_Congress_Bangalore%2C_2004.jpg 2x" data-file-width="681" data-file-height="1024" /></a><figcaption> International Salsa Congress, 2004 at <a href="/wiki/Bangalore" class="mw-redirect" title="Bangalore">Bangalore</a></figcaption></figure> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><span><video id="mwe_player_0" poster="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/ed/Salsa_Dancing_Fundamentals.webm/220px--Salsa_Dancing_Fundamentals.webm.jpg" controls="" preload="none" data-mw-tmh="" class="mw-file-element" width="220" height="124" data-durationhint="120" data-mwtitle="Salsa_Dancing_Fundamentals.webm" data-mwprovider="wikimediacommons" resource="/wiki/File:Salsa_Dancing_Fundamentals.webm"><source src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/transcoded/e/ed/Salsa_Dancing_Fundamentals.webm/Salsa_Dancing_Fundamentals.webm.480p.vp9.webm" type="video/webm; codecs="vp9, opus"" data-transcodekey="480p.vp9.webm" data-width="854" data-height="480" /><source src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/ed/Salsa_Dancing_Fundamentals.webm" type="video/webm; codecs="vp8, vorbis"" data-width="854" data-height="480" /><source src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/transcoded/e/ed/Salsa_Dancing_Fundamentals.webm/Salsa_Dancing_Fundamentals.webm.240p.vp9.webm" type="video/webm; codecs="vp9, opus"" data-transcodekey="240p.vp9.webm" data-width="426" data-height="240" /><source src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/transcoded/e/ed/Salsa_Dancing_Fundamentals.webm/Salsa_Dancing_Fundamentals.webm.360p.vp9.webm" type="video/webm; codecs="vp9, opus"" data-transcodekey="360p.vp9.webm" data-width="640" data-height="360" /><source src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/transcoded/e/ed/Salsa_Dancing_Fundamentals.webm/Salsa_Dancing_Fundamentals.webm.360p.webm" type="video/webm; codecs="vp8, vorbis"" data-transcodekey="360p.webm" data-width="640" data-height="360" /></video></span><figcaption>Video demonstrating salsa dancing fundamentals</figcaption></figure> <p>Over the years, many different styles of salsa dancing have evolved around the world.<sup id="cite_ref-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Many of them are compatible with each other, but others are different enough to make dancing between dancers of different styles difficult. </p><p>Salsa has many similarities with other partner dances, the styles and skills learned in salsa can be applied to another Latin dance like <a href="/wiki/Bachata_(dance)" title="Bachata (dance)">Bachata</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Incorporating other dance styling techniques into salsa dancing has also become common, with dancers of one style incorporating styles and movements of others to create new fusions of dance styles. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="New_York_style">New York style</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Salsa_(dance)&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: New York style"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>"On 2" style salsa originated in New York and is often referred to as New York style.

Dancing <i>Casino</i> is an expression of popular social culture; Cubans consider <i>casino</i> as part of social and cultural activities centering on their popular music. The name <i>Casino</i> is derived from the Spanish term for the dance halls, "Casinos Deportivos" where much social dancing was done among the better-off, white Cubans during the mid-20th century and onward. </p><p>Historically, <i>Casino</i> traces its origin as a partner dance from <a href="/wiki/Son_cubano" title="Son cubano">Cuban <i>Son</i></a>, Cha Cha Cha, Danzón and Guaracha. Traditionally, Casino is danced "a contratiempo". This means that no step is taken on the first and fifth beats in each clave pattern and the fourth and eighth beat are emphasized. In this way, rather than following a beat, the dancers themselves contribute in their movement, to the polyrhythmic pattern of the music. At the same time, it is often danced "a tiempo", although both "on3" (originally) and "on1" (nowadays). </p><p>What distinguishes this style is the understanding and spontaneous use of Afro-Cuban dance vocabulary within a "Casino" dance. In the same way that a "sonero" (lead singer in Son and salsa bands) will "quote" other, older songs in their own, a "casino" dancer will frequently improvise references to other dances, integrating movements, gestures and extended passages from folk dances. This is particularly true of African descended Cubans. Such improvisations might include extracts of rumba, dances for African deities, the older popular dances such as Cha Cha Chá and Danzon as well as anything the dancer may feel. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Miami-style_Casino">Miami-style Casino</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Salsa_(dance)&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: Miami-style Casino"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Developed by Cuban immigrants to Florida and centered on Miami, this dance style is a fusion of Casino and elements from American culture and dances. The major difference that distinguishes the Miami-style from other North American styles is the "Atras" or "Diagonal", back breaking steps performed backwards diagonally instead of moving forwards and backwards as seen in the New York style. Dancers do not shift their body weight greatly as seen in other styles. Instead, dancers keep their upper body still, poised and relaxed, focusing on foot movement. The dancer breaks mostly On1. </p><p>A major difference between Cali Style and Miami-style is the latter is exclusively danced on the downbeat (On1) and has elements of shines and show-style added to it, following repertoires of North American styles.
