Dance is invented to interpret the music into bodily movements. Dance is similar to any language. Even if you are a native speaker, you still need to work on refining it, improving your expressions, and correcting your grammar. Even if you are latino, you can not take it for granted
But what is musicality? In Salsa music, there are many elements in a salsa song: vocals, clave, piano, percussion, bass, and other instruments. When we listen to a song, everyone is moved by something different and personal. Some people dance to the rhythm, while others dance to the beat.
As dancers, we showcase the music on the dance floor. Our body becomes an instrument itself. We can choose simple elements to dance to, or we can pick up as many sounds as we wish and use our movements to express what we hear in the song. That is what we call musicality.
