Months in the making, and years in the conceiving ...
Cuba has a long history of music and
dance. Before there was Salsa, there was Son, Mambo, Cha-cha-cha
and Afro-Cuban music. All these music genres
came from Cuba. Today, the Cubans consider Salsa their national music.
Almost every Cuban knows how to dance Salsa, and for many, dance is a vital
part of their everyday lives. Cuban-style salsa dancing is different
from that of other styles. Many of the turns, timing, feel, and body-movement
are somewhat different. The Cubans incorporate many different elements
drawn from their long history of dance plus many modern influences.

These videos are of some of the best Cuban-style dancers.
The first video, "A Demonstrational Video
of Cuban-Style Salsa Dancing",
shows a variety of couples doing their stuff in front of the camera to
a hot up-tempo salsa song. The next two videos are instructional.
The first one is called, "The Fundamentals
of Cuban-Style Casino Salsa Dancing",
and the second one is called, "Advanced
Moves in Cuban-Style Casino Salsa Dancing."
The instructors are two of the best couples from the first video.

This is a professionally shot and professionally edited video with
a near CD quality sound track. The lighting, camera angles, and picture
quality are all very good. It was shot with a mini-DV format camera,
which has a better picture than a Hi8mm video camera.
