Salsa Suelta means "loose salsa" ...salsa
danced without a partner. Have you seen those
great step routines many salsa band members
do on stage? The Cubans call it salsa suelta.
Similar to rueda de casino, salsa suelta is
initiated when people want to party and dance
together as a larger group. But instead of
dancing in a circle as in rueda, salsa suelta
is danced in lines.
With an emphasis on step routines combined
with an imaginative variety of gestures and
moves, salsa suelta is an easy going dance
style that can be learned as you go. Because
there is no partner involved it can be
danced:
~ in mixed groups large and small
~ by yourself
~ when you want to break apart in regular
salsa dancing
~ as a way to teach salsa steps and salsa
choreographies
This DVD features Cuban style salsa suelta
inspired from the dance culture of the
barrios of Havana. The moves have evolved
from a variety of Cuban dance traditions
including rumba, orisha dance, son, cha cha
cha, mambo, casino, plus the more modern
influences of timba and hip hop.
The steps, routines, and changes are
initiated by a leader who can direct the
action using a variety of techniques
including: - calling out the name of the
moves - hand gestures - demonstrating with
their body
Leaders repeat the steps and moves long
enough for followers to catch on. Followers
imitate what the leader is doing and change
steps when the leader changes.
The Salsa Suelta Candela DVD has six
sections:
1- Introduction
2- Salsa Suelta Performance
3- Salsa Suelta Basic Steps
4- Combination Moves Advanced
