Mmmm Salsa! One of the best social dances out there is Salsa. There are places to salsa everywhere and it doesn't take a lot to get started, a few basic steps can get you out there feeling good, meeting new people and creating a whole social circle of fun happy people that just want to dance and have fun! A few steps to get started and then once out there you will be inspired to try out new moves and combinations. Because Salsa is a street dance it is ever changing and evolving, there are a very few "rules", which is very exciting. Every partner has their own take on the dance and every partner brings something new.
If you are getting ready to go on vacation, mainly Mexico or the Caribbean etc, invest a bit of time in some lessons with a professional teacher. Learn some survival skills then hit a local hot spot. Most clubs have
a free lesson or very inexpensive lesson before the dancing begins which is a great time to get warmed up with your skills, learn a new thing or two and also meet a few people you'll dance with later.
