The rich Latin American dance and music culture is the result of centries old melting pot of European, Carribean, North American
and African culture influenses.
During the latest decades the Latin American culture has been commersialised and exported all over the world with the help of movies and
cds. Today Salsa is one of the most populare social dances in Sweden and many other countries.

Everywhere where you dance Salsa you can also hear related music such as Zouk, Merengue, Bachata, Cha Cha Cha, Son, Cumbia, Mambo, Reggaeton etc and all of the "salseros"
