Salsa Dance Video

Me gusto mucho a bailar. Esté baila es sensual. Pero, es romántico también.


The dancing in Spanish cultures is very different from those of America. I chose this video of dancing because it is very pleasing to me. Most of the time that I've seen these dances they are wearing dresses. I love the way the dresses flare out when they spin. I appreciate the ability it takes to do these dances. The moves are simple sometimes, and other times are more complex.

The difference between the dances in America and Spanish cultures are vastly different. At the same time, though, they are also alike in certain aspects. In America they are just trying to arouse the other dance partner, I think. In Spanish dances, to me, it seems as if they are almost telling a story with their bodies. It's so much more than just a dance. Their body language talks. The American dances have changed dramatically as well. The older dances are somewhat like the Spanish ones. They court their partner. However, the newer dances are just excuses to press one's body against the other person's. There's nothing romantic or in-depth about it.
