We describe American Rhythm as joyful, passionate, and provocative types of dance. Experience shows Rhythm is a magical style that gives dancers of all levels a large repertoire of steps. American Rhythm dances such as Cha Cha and American Rumba are similar to the International Style Latin versions. We also teach Bolero, Mambo, Swing, and Merengue American Rhythm in our ballroom dance lessons in Walnut, CA. Bolero shares similarities in footwork timing and many other figures to Rumba. Mambo is a vivacious dance that will fill you with wonder. Swing dance consists of East Coast Swing and West Coast Swing. East Coast Swing is typically the faster of the two and involves a lot more flips!
