difference between Salsa and Ballroom

i have danced 12 years now.. ballroom/latin

and now since 2,5 years i dance Salsa..

I think i've seen the light now..
DAmn Salsa music.. is soo much greater and you can dance it with everyone ow this is soo great..
i suggest everyone to give salsa/mambo a big try

but now to train for salsa contests ^^

yum yum

:twisted: hehehe

Have you been to any of the events in the UK? I went to the Salsa Festival in Haarlem a few years ago. It was my first congress (and time in Holland) and it was great!

noo not yet.. only Zurich.. and i must say its Addicted too


oh and by the way.. they even start national Salsa Contests too now in holland.. whohooo..

i am gonna be famous *coughs*

And the difference between the thread title and thread discussion? :?

Not exactly related to this, but one of my dance partners on Friday night who is big on swing dances commented how different it was seeing ballroomers trying to dance swing vs. the true swingeros (to borrow from salseros). She found it highly amusing and somewhat disturbing that all the ballroomers seem to dance swing as if they perfected it.

I'm sure similar comments will occur when seeing ballroom salsa/mambo compared to club.

Seriously, are they both the same, with the exception of mambo having a set ISTD syllabus list of figures? Quite frustrating.
