CALI, COLOMBIA SALSA STYLE - HOW DID THAT STARTED?
PEOPLE ARE VERY FASCINATED WITH THE STYLE OF SALSA DANCE IN CALI, COLOMBIA BUT, NO ONE KNOWS WHO CREATED THAT STYLE EXCEPT FOR THE COLOMBIANS.
IT'S NO SECRET THEY LOVE THE SALSA THAT COME FROM PUERTO RICO AND EVEN THE DANCING THAT CAME FROM PUERTO RICO.
ONE LEGEND OF THE MUSIC ROBERTO ROENA AND HIS PARTNER ON STAGE AND A LEGEND IN THE SALSA COMMUNITY IN PUERTO RICO ANIBAL VAZQUEZ CREATED A STYLE OF SALSA DANCING THAT EVERY SINGER OF EVERY BAND WAS IMITATING THEN FINALLY IT HIT PUERTO RICO DANCE COMMUNITY.
TAKING IT AWAY FROM THE TRADITIONAL CLAVE DANCING FROM ROBERTO ROENA AND HIS BROTHER BEFORE HE BECAME A MUSICIAN.
SOME PUERTO RICANS CALL IT CLAVE 2x3 MIX WITH JALA JALA AND BOOGALOO (BECAUSE OF THE HAND GESTURES).
CHECK THESE VIDEOS OF THESE TWO AND SEE HOW CALI, COLOMBIA INCORPORATED AND MADE IT THEIR OWN...
ALSO WATCH THIS AS THEY ARE OLDER...
ANIBAL VAZQUEZ WOULD CREATE A HUGE DANCING FOUNDATION IN PUERTO RICO AND PEOPLE LIKE STACEY LOPEZ, FELIPE POLANCO CAN TELL YOU WHAT ANIBAL VAZQUEZ MEANT FOR SALSA DANCING THAT WE ALL ARE DANCING TODAY.
ENJOY.
