What are the basic steps of salsa?

Salsa dancing encompasses various basic steps. Firstly, there is the basic step known as "On1" or "On2" timing. On1 refers to taking a forward step with the left foot while breaking back with the right foot, then bringing the left foot back together. On2 involves breaking forward with the right foot while taking a backward step with the left foot, followed by a bringing together of the right foot. Both timings are widely used. Additionally, there are side steps, in which dancers shift their weight from side to side, and the "Cuban motion" is incorporated by moving the hips in a circular motion. These are the foundational steps of salsa, onto which dancers add spins, turns, and additional footwork to create more complex and dynamic movements.
