Salsa On2 (Mambo)

Alisa’s specialism: dancing to the second beat, with musicality and clean technique at the centre.

About this class

Salsa On2, also called Mambo, breaks on the second beat of the music. It gives the dance a distinctive, unhurried feel and a strong connection to the percussion.

Work focuses on timing, weight transfer, body movement and listening to the music rather than counting through it. Shines — the solo sequences dancers use when partners release each other — are practised as musical statements, not only as steps.

This is Alisa’s main specialism and the style Mambo Clan is named for.
