Salsa Lessons in : Wembley, Ealing, Hendon


MamboCity, was started in August of 1999 at Bootsy Brogan's Wembley, what started out as a hobby quickly became popular with many of our fellow Salsero's and friends, who have supported us over the years staging enjoyable events where people can learn to dance and express themselves.

Why the name Mambo City?

The Mambo: of African and European parentage, Mambo, Conga and Bongo were originally Bantu names for musical instruments that were used in rituals and gradually became secular. Mambo means "conversation with the gods" and in Cuba designates a sacred song of the Congo (Cubans of Bantu origin).
The Congos absorbed a variety of foreign influences and the mambo drum rhythm became a cocktail of Bantu, Spanish and Yoruba. Coupled with Western Jazz, these beats provided the basis for the creation of the Mambo then the Cha Cha Cha and Salsa. The mambo is the result of a long cross-cultural journey, A journey through life with Music and Dance.
