Many dancers step off the dance floor when they hear rhythms that don't sound like the commercial "salsa" that they're accustomed to.

We are traveling the world, teaching dancers and musicians, how to recognize the rhythms of Latin music - and then how to executive the dancing associated with each rhythm.

To what rhythms is one to dance the Cha-cha-cha? Most dancers AND Latin musicians, today, call Cha-cha-cha a rhythm - but it's not a rhythm - it's a dance. While many of those who DO recognize it when they hear it - display enough courage to stay on the floor to dance it - there is still quite a lot of confusion on the dance floor as to HOW exactly to dance the traditional Cha-cha-cha.

There are 4 rhythms that one MUST dance the Cha-Cha-Cha to because of their tempos and rhythmic patterns. There are also 2 additional rhythms that one MAY dance the Cha-Cha-Cha ONLY IF these 2 rhythms are played slowly enough. Do you know which 4 rhythms one MUST dance Cha-Cha-Cha to and which other 2 one MAY if the rhythms are played slowly enough?? HINT: Think "Son" rhythms and think "tempo."

While the word "mambo" is thrown around, today, as if it were a status symbol, there are actually several different ways that Mambo is being danced, today, but which is correct?

01) Some dancers claim that Mambo can be danced "on 1" as long as he/she is "free-styling."

02) Some  claim that one is to charge "precisely" on the second beat of the rhythm, or "on 2," to be Mambo.

03) Other dancers claim that Mambo is the same Salsa - only slower.

04) Other dancers claim that Mambo is danced "literally, on the clave."

05) A handful of dancers claim that Mambo is where a dancer simply breaks "on the 2."

06) Some dancers claim that Mambo is about syncopating the steps to dance "inside the rhythm" of the music, with unrestricted body-movement, and footwork.

We teach you the answer in our WORLD-CLASS, FANTASTIC Master-class workshops! Our workshops combine a Latin musician AND dancer into EACH course, where we break down EACH of the rhythmic instruments in Latin music of EACH rhythm in order to teach dancers how to listen, interpret, recognize and executive the dancing to EACH Latin rhythm.
