Merengue is a lively, fast-paced music and dance style that originated in the Dominican Republic in the 19th century, characterized by a distinctive two-step rhythm and instrumentation traditionally including accordion, tambora drum, and güira scraper. The dance involves partners moving their hips in a simple side-to-side step while keeping the upper body relatively still. It is a staple of Latin social dancing and is popular at parties, clubs, and dance schools worldwide.
