The term Latin dances in the context of social and ballroom dances may be used in two meanings.
The first meaning is to denote dances originated in Latin America. Typically these are Cha cha, Rumba, Samba, Salsa, Mambo, Merengue, Bachata, Cumbia, Bolero. Some dance instructors also include Tango and Argentine tango in this list, although these differ from the rest in their style. In Argentina Tango is not considered folk dance as it is the case of dances like Chacarera, Gato, Escondido and Zamba. Typical Bolivian folk dances are Morenada, Kullawada, Llamerada, Caporales and the recently created Tinku. In Columbia one of the typical dances is the Cumbia, not to be mistaken with the very popular Argentinian Cumbia, some sort of low-class rap emerging from the slums of Buenos Aires.
The second, a more formal usage, is the name of a category of International style ballroom dances, also called Latin American dances or International Latin. It consists of the following five dances: Cha cha, Rumba, Samba, Paso Doble, Jive. Notice that the last two dances are not of Latin American origin.

WebSite ] is the main mission of Tri Falcon and Dove Dance Academy-to creat qualified dance instructors.
The critical difference as is is applied to Latin dance is based upon the understanding that Latin dance has it's own traditions of diversity. There is no single form. But rather a host of diverse interpretations, or forms. Sometimes these forms are ethnic based, ie. Afro Carribean, or Hispanic-the main branches. As a result, it is how the client is able to make a personal connection to Salsa Musica which is important.
Thus for the Hispanic Mambo you break on Two, and For the Afro - Carribean - Son Montuno you break on One. and there are others.
