Defending New Era Cuban Salsa, Cuban Critics against the world

These are all examples of a simple wish – to preserve the dance as it is, or was in Cuba, at least the way they view it. And while I understand their wish to defend the authenticity of the dance, it is as though they would say: “Your way of enjoying dance is not valid”
