JustSalsa,com went three times to Puerto Rico in the name of Salsa. Two times it was to attend the Congreso Bacardi de la Salsa, also known as the Congreso Mundial de la Salsa, and the Puerto Rico Salsa Congress.. The other time was when we traveled with the ashes of the legendary Salsero Pete "El Conde" Rodriguez. I will link the photos of Pete as soon as I can.

The original Salsa Dance Congreso concept was started in Puerto Rico by Eli Irrizari 1997 Posted to this page.are links to the photographs and MPEG movies which were taken at the Puerto Rican Salsa Congreso once known as the Congreso Bacardi de la Salsa.
These congreso events are a real mixing point for people, and dancers from all over the world. The crew from justsalsa.com has been covering these events since 1999. We have seen the Congreso concept grow from a loosely organized event into the greatest spectacle of Latin dance in the World.
The workshops, taught by professionals, "break-down" the different dance styles into understandable steps. Learn to dance Salsa while you make new friends and enjoy yourself at Congresos and Festivals worldwide. We'll see You at the Congreso!
