🎵 ABOUT CUBAN SALSA
Cuban Salsa (Casino) originated in 1950s Cuba, evolving from Son, Cha-Cha-Cha, and Danzón, blending European and African influences. Today, its rich musical and dance traditions continue in styles like Rumba, Afro-Cuban Orishas, Mambo, and Cubaton—all part of what we teach at The Cuban Groove!
