Bombazo
Bomba is both a traditional dance and music style of Puerto Rico. While Bomba can be used as the generic name for a number of rhythms, it’s truly about a creative, interactive relationship between dancers, percussionists and singers. Today it’s practiced as a communal activity in several Puerto Rican areas including the capital San Juan.
