Close, grinding partner dance; DJ-driven; the dominant social couple dance of reggaeton music culture.
What to expect: No instruction needed — the instinctive social couple dance to reggaeton music. Very close contact, hip-driven. Dominant at Latin club nights worldwide. Consent and floor etiquette matter.

Latin social nights almost always start with a beginner lesson before the floor opens. Show up alone - partners rotate during class. Wear something you can sweat in and shoes with a smooth sole.
Ask politely, smile, thank your partner after the song. Decline gracefully if you need a break. Rooms run hot; bring water.
