Company

“Salsa y Control” originated in 1999 with Johnny and Andres, two brothers, who perform amazing duets with unique, intricate salsa footwork combinations. They were the first and only all male salsa dance group in Boston. Their drive came from the desire to inspire others to express inner emotion through the art of dance.  They named themselves after the song, "Salsa y Control" by Los Hermanos Lebron.

 

The group evolved to include partnering choreography with Felicita and Johnny.  The partnering expansion resulted from the salsa community’s high demand to see them perform.  In 2003, the three partnered, and changed the dance group to an official dance company, “Salsa y Control Dance Company”.

 

 

Today, “Salsa y Control Dance Company” prides itself in showcasing multiple, multi-level dance groups that include highly dedicated, skilled, professional, and semi-professional dancers.  The groups exhibit Salsa y Control Dance Company’s unique signature style, footwork, and partnering. They are known and loved by many, not only for their unique dance skills but, for their humble, approachable demeanor.  The groups are: "Salsa y Control", “Johnny & Andres”, “Johnny & Felicita”,  “Sabor”, “Ritmo”, and “Estilo”.

 

Salsa y Control Dance Company is committed to sharing the love of salsa through dance by maintaining their mission; “Inspiring others to dance”.  The company successfully accomplishes this through performance, instruction, and choreography services. Salsa y Control Dance Company has showcased their work at diverse venues nationally, and internationally.
