It was initially danced only by African Americans living in those areas;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>All dances are partner dances and a <strong>attunement with one's partner<\/strong> to reach a level where movements are smooth and beautiful to look at.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:80px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote has-text-align-center is-style-large is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Looking for dance shoes?<\/p><cite>Visit our shop!<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-background\" href=\"https:\/\/www.romydance.it\/en\/negozio\/\" style=\"background-color:#e5625e\">Go to shop<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:80px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Latin American dancing or Caribbean dancing?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Caribbean dances, on the other hand, are those most commonly found in dance schools and, for this very reason, are mistakenly confused with Latin American dance. <strong>There are three: bachata, salsa and merengue<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:80px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Competitiveness in Latin American dances<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Latin dances are <strong>officially recognised in competitions<\/strong> of competitive dance.
