Salsa dance movements originate from the Cuban Son dancing of the 1930s more specifically through the beat of Son Montuno with strong influences from the dance of Danzon, Mambo, Guaguanco and other Afro-Cuban folkloric dancing. Salsa is typically a partner dance, although there are recognized solo forms (Floor Shines/ Shines), line dancing (suelta), and Rueda de Casino, where groups of couples exchange partners in a circle. Women traditionally wear short/skirted latin outfits and men wear tight fitting shirts and pants.

Best shoes ever!
I waited for so long for these shoes to come back into stock and it was truly worth the wait! These shoes are so comfortable and fit wider feet as well. I purchased a half size smaller and they were perfect. I am definitely going to purchase from here again....and again....

Fit lovely and amazing to dance in! Highly recommend. Also great customer service. First order initially refunded as the qualified of the boot was not up to standard for them to send out. Will be using again.

Love my shoes.
They are true to size. Very well made. The only thing I would like better would be the insole be a little thicker. More support. I will enjoy them . 😊

First pair of dance shoes
Went to my first MadJam and while there purchased my first pair of real dance shoes from Dance Connection after trying several other venders. Absolutely loved the service and love the shoe!!!

PERFECT!
They are very comfortable! They were a little tight at first, but once they stretched out, it's like walking on clouds. My feet are usually so unbearably painful after about 30-40 minutes of dancing but with these, without having to put my orthopedic insoles in them, my feet did not hurt as much as they usually do! I don't know what's in them but it was so nice not to have to dance with my inserts. My toes were kept in the shoes too even if it was a little open toed.

Ultimate dance shoe accommodates an orthotic
This shoe is designed with a deep heel cup and toe box that will accommodate an orthotic insert. It is my second pair as I wore my first pair for almost a decade until they fell apart. Well made functional shoes. If you have any issues with your feet and need custom orthotics look no farther.

Black shoe bag for dance
The black shoe bag for dance shoes is great. No more using a frayed fabric bag that hardly fits my shoes. I have large feet, and this new bag fits my shoes. Great!

Pretty little dance shoes
I love the low heel and the look of these shoes. I bought these at my first dance competition, and wore them for my competition with barely any "break-in" time and they were comfortable, Also had custom orthotics made at the same time and wore them in the dance shoes and have been wearing them daily ever since!

Love the dance shoes
These dance shoes have so much more support than what I’ve been wearing. I know they’re much much better for my feet.

Love the suede
I love this sandal. This is my 4th time purchasing this style except my former pairs had more of a heel and were the regular leather. I think this suede version is more elegant and the lower heel makes it comfortable to wear , walk and dance all day long.
