Salsa Clubs San Diego directory includes a listing of well known salsa dance venues for San Diego. The Salsa dance has been one of the most popular Latin dance genres in San Diego for the last few decades. It is the daughter of the older dance, mambo. Some might say that mambo was our parents dance while salsa has lasted a generation.

When other dance styles went from popular and then slowed down like Hustle, Country Western and Swing dance, the Latin club dances have continued in popularity for the last several decades. In the last couple of decades, the bachata has skyrocketed in popularity competing with the salsa.
