Rueda de Casino Moves, Calls
& Videos for Cuban Salsa

Rueda de Casino is a group form of Casino, the Cuban partner dance, in which couples form a circle and perform figures announced by a caller.

This video-indexed Rueda de Casino moves list helps dancers review figures and Rueda de Casino calls, compare names and versions across schools and communities, and find specific salsa rueda moves.

This rueda moves list is intended mainly for dancers with some in-person Rueda de Casino experience who want to review, prepare to join, or begin calling a rueda. It is a reference, not a complete teaching syllabus. Start with the figures and conventions used by the group you dance with.
