Mastering Salsa: A Beginner's Guide

Salsa is one of the most popular Latin dances for corporate team building. Its infectious rhythm and social nature make it perfect for bringing teams together.

The Basic Step Pattern

The salsa basic step follows a simple "1-2-3, 5-6-7" pattern, with a pause on beats 4 and 8. This creates the characteristic salsa rhythm that makes the dance so engaging.

Breaking Down the Steps

Start with your feet together. On beat 1, step forward with your left foot. On beat 2, bring your right foot to meet your left. On beat 3, step back with your left foot.

Adding the Hip Movement

The key to authentic salsa is the hip movement. As you step, let your hips naturally follow the movement, creating the characteristic Latin dance style.

Benefits for Corporate Teams

Learning salsa together helps teams develop coordination, communication, and trust - all essential skills for workplace success.
