merengue is a lively and rhythmic dance that originally comes from the Dominican Republic. It’s got a really rich history and it’s actually considered the national dance of the Dominican Republic. It dates back to around the 19th century. There are a lot of different stories about how it evolved, but generally it started as a folk dance in rural areas and then made its way into the cities and became a big part of Dominican culture. #merengue #dance #latina #howto #easy | Sergey Muretov
