Rueda De Casino Basic Steps
Enchufla is a basic Cuban salsa turn that is danced in Casino or Rueda de Casino. Learn the basic steps in this video lesson. Salsa Cubana Instructors: Nicholas Van Eyck and Serena Wong. On 1-2-3 follower walks like in a Vacilala, but leader does ½ a left turn while walking to the center of the Rueda, thus blocking the followers way. The leader stops the follower with its right hand on 4. On 5 the leader slightly pushes the follower back, and does a ½ turn to the right while walking, thus getting back to the initial position.

Summary: Leaders move side to side in front of followers
Description:
From Guapea, the follower does an Enchufa, and the leader moves in front of her, facing the centre of the circle, changing hands so that he has her right hand in his right. He then steps back on his left on 1, while she steps back on her right, and they do basic steps, 'bouncing' in opposite directions for a few bars.
The caller will use one of these two calls:
- Dame - on 5, the leaders move towards the follower to the right, and continue doing Cubano with the new follower. This is different to the usual Dame.
Rueda De Casino Steps
- Se Fue - on 1, when the leader is to the right of the follower, he will change hands so that his left holds her right, and give her an Enchufa then Dile Que No.
Typically there will be a couple of Dame calls, then Se Fue.
