Description: Salsa rueda (translated "wheel") is a called dance performed in a circle, in which there are many different partner moves, group moves, combinations, and partner switching. It is high energy and a lot of fun. The calls are all in Spanish, which adds to the fun, but you don't need to to know any Spanish to dance rueda.
