6. It’s Like Aerobics, but in a Skirt
Salsa dancing allows you to achieve an aerobic effect quickly and maintain that level for at least 20 consecutive minutes. So keep your target heart rate up and keep on dancing!
7. It Works Muscles that Running and Walking Don’t
Aside from its aerobic benefits, there are also anaerobic benefits because salsa forces you to work muscles in your legs and hips that you usually don’t. Since salsa requires you to step backwards, you can tone your glutes and your hips, along with the other muscles in your legs.
