From sensual salsa to fiery bachata, Latin dance is all about passion, rhythm, and connection. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned dancer, these moves will ignite your next performance!
Salsa
The Cross Body Lead with Inside Turn (Cuban Salsa)
The ultimate crowd-pleaser! This flashy move starts with a basic cross-body lead but adds an elegant inside turn for the follower. Perfect for showing off your partner's styling.
Bachata
The Sensual Dip (Dominican Bachata)
Take your bachata to the next level with this dramatic yet controlled dip. It's all about the slow, fluid motion—no sudden drops! Works best with close body contact.
Cha-Cha-Cha
The Cha-Cha Lock Step (International Latin)
This playful move adds texture to your cha-cha with quick "locking" footwork. The syncopated steps (1-2-3-&4) create that signature cha-cha bounce.
Rumba
The Sliding Door (Ballroom Rumba)
A smooth, gliding movement where partners pass each other like sliding doors. The key is maintaining intense eye contact while executing slow, controlled steps.
Merengue
The Helicopter Turn (Dominican Merengue)
Fast-paced and fun! Partners spin under joined hands like helicopter blades. Works great with the merengue's constant 1-2 march rhythm.
