The dance of Salsa originated in Cuba. Between 1930 and 1940 the Salsa existed by a mix of dance forms and rhythms primarly derived of the Latin American Caribbean, like the Mambo, Cha-cha-cha, Merengue (Dominican Republic), Son (Cuba), Plena (Puerto Rico), Cumbai (Colombia) and Plena (from Puerto Rico). The Cuban dance developped in New York and the name “Salsa” was officially inaugurated for this mixture of dance in 1970. Nowadays, there are two distinct types of Salsa, the Cuban Style and Cross Body Lead Style.
