Rueda
We are happy to announce that we have introduced Rueda to our classes.
What is Rueda? (Pronounced roo-ay-da) "Rueda de Casino (Rueda, Casino Rueda, Salsa Rueda) is a particular type of round dancing of Salsa. It was developed in Havana, Cuba in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Pairs of dancers form a circle, with dance moves called out by a 'cantante' (caller or leader). The names of the moves are mostly in Spanish. Some of them are known in slightly different versions, easily recognizable by Spanish-speaking dancers. Many of the moves involve the swapping of partners.

While rueda is especially popular in Cuba and a number of places in the U.S., it can also be found in many other countries. Rueda has active groups in at least Hungary, Norway, France, Germany, Poland, Russia, Hong Kong, Spain, Australia, Switzerland and the UK.

Casino Rueda scenes may be seen in the movie Dance with Me and in the music video clip No me dejes de querer by Gloria Estefan."
