The three salsa dance styles are: Salsa Caleña, Salsa On line and Salsa Casino or Rueda.
The Salsa Caleña gets its name because its style was originated in the city of Cali in Colombia, more exactly in a sector of the city known as Juanchito.
This style of salsa stands out for the skillful movement of the knees, acrobatics and partner management.

Salsa On Line: It receives this name because, during the dance, the couple dances respecting an imaginary line on the floor.
This means that, all the steps or turns that are made, the couple stays in the same place where the step started or on the opposite side.
The Casino Salsa: It receives this name because its origin was in The Cuba Club Casino.
This style of dance is characterized by the fact that it is danced in a group and in circular way. Its members change partners at the voice of a leader or teacher.
The third thing in level of importance is to define if you want private dance classes or group classes.
Private classes have a higher cost than group classes, but at the same time you have the advantage of having only the teacher for you.
The teacher evaluates your rhythm and coordination skills and, according to your level, he will create a personalized plan for you.
Group salsa classes are cheaper and on the other hand you can socialize and meet people.
Some dance academies manage socials in their programming. They are meetings where the students of the academy get together to practice while dancing.
