Editing Conga line (section)

==Description==
The conga dance style is more of a march, which is characterized by its distinctive [[conga drum]] rhythm. It differs from the [[Cuban rumba]], which uses movements considered "[[Hip (slang)|hip]]" and shows the sensually aggressive attitude of each dancer. [[Conga music]] is played with a [[staccato]] beat as its base, which gives [[rhythm]] to the movements of the dancers. Conga dancers lift their legs in time with the rhythm of the music, marking each beat with the strong motion of their body.

The basic [[dance steps]] start from left leg 1-2-3 kick then repeat, opposite. Originally, a band member wearing a drum would venture onto the dance floor and begin zig-zagging around while drumming out the rhythm. Dancers would start joining up behind the drummer, forming a line that moves like a snake in an open circle. The line (or the circular chain) would grow longer and the drumming more intense until it finally stopped. The dance has two styles, which is a single line form and partners. The single line is more popular in Cuba.<ref name="watson" />
