{{Main|Cuban salsa}}
In Cuba, a popular dance known as Casino was marketed as Cuban-style salsa or Salsa Cubana abroad to distinguish it from other salsa styles when the name was popularized internationally in the 1970s. The name ''Casino'' is derived from the Spanish term for the dance halls, "Casinos Deportivos" where much social dancing was done among the better-off, white Cubans during the mid-20th century and onward.

Historically, ''Casino'' traces its origin as a partner dance from [[Son cubano|Cuban ''Son'']], Cha Cha Cha, Danzón and Guaracha.<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Lloyd |first1=Rebecca J. |last2=Smith |first2=Stephen J. |date=February 2024 |title=Salsa Rhythms and Soul Connections |journal=Qualitative Inquiry |volume=30 |issue=2 |pages=175–181 |doi=10.1177/10778004231176094 |issn=1077-8004 |pmc=10849889 |pmid=38344057}}</ref> Cuban salsa dancers also often incorporate Afro-Cuban dance movements such as [[Guaguancó]] and Columbia into their dancing, a practice which has grown in popularity in other salsa dance styles as well.
