Around here doing salsa, merengue, mambo, bachata is a key differentiator. Dress well, don’t be a creep, be funny and engaging AND WOMEN WILL ASK YOU OUT.
Also ita a súper social event, the women get to observe you dancing and interacting with other people and meet you in a non-threatening environment, then you dance with them - which is not an issue - you simply will not get turned down. If youre good again your dance card is full.
I’ve had two women ask me to go dance with both of them for hours - trust me even if you are not their normal type one can get tired and can home and if the remaining one is up your alley you can escalate. Or you get the DHV of being with two women, hopefully attractive ones, which makes new approaches even easier.
