Join our new **Salsa on 2 (New York style)** class at DF Dance Studio Mondays, 8–9 pm. Designed for experienced salsa dancers who’ve completed or are enrolled in Salsa Level 3.
Salsa on 2, commonly known as New York style, breaks on beats 2 and 6. This gives dancers a smoother, more musical connection—especially during turns—and aligns beautifully with conga, bass, and clave rhythms :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}.
In contrast, Salsa on 1 (LA style) breaks on beats 1 and 5, syncing with the melody and cowbell, creating a sharper, more staccato feel :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}.
