About Salsa Line Style
L.A. style salsa, usually danced “On 1", is a flasher version of New York style salsa moves. Dancers use lots of dips, flips, drops and tricks which make for a great show to watch. The back and forth Mambo basic, again in a linear motion, is utilized with the leader breaking forward on 1. Because the dominating beat is the 1 beat which is the most accented beat in the series, the dancing looks and feels powerful and fast. L.A. style salsa has incorporated many other types of dancing including jazz, hip hop, and ballroom which is challenging for the dancers and entertaining for the viewers. Similar to the New York style salsa, many of the moves are created from cross body lead variations. Shines are an important component of this type of salsa with complicated, speedy footwork and jazzy moves.
About Salsa Cuban style
Cuban salsa style is most similar to the original form of salsa rooted in Cuba. It is characterized by Afro Cuban style body movement which includes body isolation and hip movement. Cuban style salsa does not have many fast spins. Instead the movement is very circular as opposed to linear and partners tend to travel around each other. The hip movement is more noticeable in this style and stems from the pumping of the knees. The footwork is quite simple – the complexity lies in the arm work which requires the follower to have limber, flexible arms.
About Bachata
Bachata moderna is the next evolution of the dance based on the concept of the crosses. It incorporates different styles onto the Bachata beat, for example, you can do bachata-tango steps, zouk basics, cha-cha moves and more! With Bachata Moderna your dance won’t be from side to side as the traditional bachata is, instead, you will move and flow on the dance floor with such ease!
With the development of the Bachata music and the new Urban Bachata movement led by bands such as Aventura, Domenic Marte, 4Ever, etc, the Bachata Moderna style started.
Our Style of teaching is Bachata Moderna. We will also mix with some Bachatango and a bit of Dominican style, we just teach social dance things that you can be able do lead and fallow in the dance floor with everyone.

About West Coast Swig
West Coast Swing (WCS) is a partner dance derived from Lindy Hop. It is characterised by a distinctive elastic look that results from its basic extension-compression technique of partner connection, and is danced primarily in a slotted area on the dance floor. The dance allows for both partners to improvise steps while dancing together.
Typically the follower walks into new patterns traveling forward on counts "1" and "2" of each basic pattern, rather than rocking back. The Anchor Step is a common ending pattern of many West Coast Swing figures.
West Coast Swing is a dance originally develop from Lindy-Hop. From 70th century onwards, the dance influenced by both Latin American dance styles such as The Hustle. The dance is danced to traditional pop music and sometimes even to the Hip Hop and RnB which allows it to be danced on the dance floor at any time.

På denna kursen kommer ni lära er grunderna och principerna i lady styling. Hur man använder händerna och kroppen i sensuella rörelser och när i dansen man kan läggan in dem.
Vi kommer göra en koreografi som vi bygger på varje vecka. I slutet av kursen har de som vill möjlighet att få uppträda på falken med denna koreografin. Om fallet är så att man endast är intresserad av att lära sig lady styling och inte vill uppträda går detta också bra.
In this class we will go through the basic principles and movements of the lady styling.
When styling can be used?, how the different ways to use their hands in the styling?, even the movement of the body (eg hips and shoulders).
Using their hands, hips and shoulders while dancing is something that comes very naturally to some, but for 95% do not. Usually, it requires much training or at least someone who shows the guidelines for how to move their bodies and use their hands. Knowing when you can add styling is also importent. The goal is to look beutiful in your style but without somehow destroy the partnerwork with the Guy.

About Salsa on2, New York Style
Detta är linjestil salsa som dansas på taktslag 2. Inom linjestil salsa finns två stora stilar. New York style (on 2) och LA style (on 1). I New York style går man fram på taktslag 2 i musiken och bak på taktslag 6. Till skillnad från LA style där man går fram på taktslag 1 och bak på 5. När man dansar till så kallad mambo musik väljer många dansare att dansa på 2 eftersom takterna 2 och ofta 6 höjs upp i denna musiken och därför anses det i vara mer musikaliskt att dansa på 2 till vissa låter.
I många länder runt om i världen är new York style stor och framför allt på många intarnationella salsa kongresser finner ni många on 2 dansare.
