Modern Day Mambo Legend
Eddie Torres," The Mambo King of Latin Dance" has been the driving force for the resurgence of interest in Mambo dancing ("New York Style on 2") since the 1980's. Eddie Torres was part of the Post-Palladium or "second generation" of Mambo dancers who kept Mambo alive. He has inspired thousands of dancers through his studio http://www.eddietorres.com/, the performances of his dance troupe-- Eddie Torres Dance Company and his instructional videos. He is world renowned as a creative, innovative Latin dance teacher, performer, and choreographer. After taking a series of his classes, I was able to spend some time interviewing Mr. Torres about his perspective on Mambo dancing.
