This week....the Rumba!

The rumba is a slower dance out of the Latin section of ballroom dancing. It involves a hip sway over the standing leg (meaning, take a step, stand on that foot, and sway your hip). This dance generally has no rise and fall during the routine and uses arms in various figures. It's a very sensual dance, it's slow and allows you to see the dance movements that the dancers are trying to execute.

Here is a video to YouTube with Derek Hough and Jennifer Grey from Dancing with the Stars dancing a Rumba:
