Have Fun on the Dance Floor with Radiant Rumba<\/h2>

Rumba (or \u201cballroom-rumba\u201d), is one of the ballroom dances which occurs in social dance and in international competitions. It is the slowest of the five competitive International Latin dances: the Paso Doble<\/a>, the Samba<\/a>, the Cha Cha<\/a>, and the Jive<\/a> being the others. This ballroom<\/a> Rumba was derived from a Cuban rhythm and dance called the Bolero-Son; the international style was derived from studies of dance in Cuba<\/a> in the pre-revolutionary period which was then popularized by the descendants of African slaves of Cuba<\/a>. Its tantalizing rhythm first invaded the United States in the early 1930s and has remained one of the most popular social dances. The Rumba is characterized by a smooth, subtle hip motion and a heavy walking step.<\/p>

Of the three styles of Rumba that were introduced to the United States, the Bolero-Rumba, the Son-Rumba, and the Guaracha-Rumba, only the Bolero-Rumba (shortened to Bolero<\/a>) and the Son-Rumba (shortened to Rumba) have survived the test of time. The Guaracha-Rumba quickly faded in popularity when the more exciting Mambo<\/a> was introduced to Americans in the late 1940s.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Rumba Dance Steps are Smooth and Subtle<\/h2>

The Rumba is danced in place as the steps are quite compact. Although the Rumba is not danced with the same body contact that is used in smooth-style dances, there may be times when partnership looks and feels more attractive when closer contact is felt. A smooth and subtle movement of the hips is characteristic of the Rumba.<\/p>
