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 salsa dancing is different
from that of other styles of dancing salsa. Moves, combinations, 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.

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.
