Puerto Rican Merengue o Dominican Merengue

But all in all, I prefer salsa anyway... lol
I don't understand it when people say dancing to merengue is HARDER than dancing to salsa, when salsa has that 1-2-3, 1-2-3, whereas merengue is 1-2, 1-2...

Salsa/Mambo is harder to dance to. It can be dance on 1 or on 2, or on 3 and 5. Delgado....1,2,3..(silent 4)5,6,7..(silent 8).

That's Mambo on 2.

Dancing on 1:

LOL... maybe I just make it simple. A mi, salsa es muy ... como se dice "improvisational".

Now mambo? I can't do that well at all, and I don't even try (not until AFTER I'm married anyway). But I see what you are saying, Jane.

That's dancing on 3 to me. A la natural.
