What are fak you talking about? It's not only footwork.. Emotion,charisma, connection, there are million things... I bet you don't know anything about dancing and trying to prove your sh1t. so go and dance in your club where ''all dancers are perfect''!1!

With that said, people on these posts need to recognize AND ACCEPT the fact that yeah, International Style Latin Ballroom is not typically danced by many hispanics, and that's OK. Social latin dances (salsa, merengue, cumbia, bachata, etc) and latin ballroom dances are not the same, so get over it. Respect them both... any good dancer will. They have different purposes, and typically different audiences. I dance salsa at the clubs and latin ballroom at the competitions, and it's good.

Although my heart will always have a soft spot for salsa (the first dance I learned after living in Puerto Rico for a bit) which I danced for years before trying ballroom, I TOTALLY agree that international style latin ballroom is much, much more difficult. There is a strict precision that is not required to dance salsa, due much to the fact that ballroom is syllabus based, whereas salsa and other social latin dances do not require.

Yes I know they are Originally inspirations from Africa. I know my Culture, I know my people, I know my roots, I know my music. Yes it is true this EuroDancers have fancy foot work, But is it the right one with this rythem? NO!

Those dances you mentioned are the original inspirations, as well as influences from Africa, but these Dancesport (or, Sportdance in Europe) are highly-refined advanced versions. Much harder. They incorporate "merengue action" only better. It takes a lifetime to accomplish their techniques, and only a few hours in a club for yours.
