As a dance form, Salsa has its origins in the Cuban Son and the Afro-Cuban dance, Rumba<\/a>. As it relates to the popular music style, Salsa continues to evolve with new variations popping up all the time. New modern dance styles are associated and named according to the geographies where they are developed. Popular Salsa styles are Cuban, Columbian, Los Angeles, New York (or Eddie Torres Style), Palladium, Puerto Rican, Rueda, and On Clave.<\/p>\n
