Cuban motion
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cuban motion is characterized by a rhythmic swaying of the hips caused by the bending and straightening of the knees (though the knees remain "soft" -- slightly bent -- at all times). It is a style of movement which should be present in Latin American dances, including Bachata, mambo, salsa, rumba, Merengue, Samba and cha-cha-cha. It tends to be easier to dance & more noticeable when the music is slow.
