| Cuban Salsa Suelta - Havana, Cuba - 71 sec Clip of the Boogalu Productions DVD "Salsa Suelta Candela".
for complete info go to the website:
http://www.boogalu.com/generic137.html
Salsa Suelta means "loose salsa" ...salsa danced without a partner. Have you seen those great step routines many salsa band members do on stage? The Cubans call it salsa suelta.
Similar to rueda de casino, salsa suelta is initiated when people want to party and dance together as a larger group. But instead of dancing in a circle as in rueda, salsa suelta is danced in lines.
With an emphasis on step routines combined with an imaginative variety of gestures and moves, salsa suelta is an easy going dance style that can be learned as you go. Because there is no partner involved it can be danced:
~ in mixed groups large and small
~ by yourself
~ when you want to break apart in regular salsa dancing
~ as a way to teach salsa steps and salsa choreographies
This DVD features Cuban style salsa suelta inspired from the dance culture of the barrios of Havana. The moves have evolved from a variety of Cuban dance traditions including rumba, orisha dance, son, cha cha cha, mambo, casino, plus the more modern influences of timba and hip hop.
The steps, routines, and changes are initiated by a leader who can direct the action using a variety of techniques including: - calling out the name of the moves - hand gestures - demonstrating with their body
Leaders repeat the steps and moves long enough for followers to catch on. Followers imitate what the leader is doing and change steps when the leader changes.
The Salsa Suelta Candela DVD has six sections:
1- Introduction
2- Salsa Suelta Performance
3- Salsa Suelta Basic Steps
4- Combination Moves Advanced
5- Dancing On and Off the Beat
6- Combination Moves Beginning Auteur : boogaluproductions Tags:salsa cuba dance rumba cuban conga latin rueda orisha  |
