Note
The -ing form of a verb built on the dance's name, and it keeps the final a of salsa intact before the suffix. Because the verb is intransitive, it takes no direct object: you go salsaing, or are salsaing across a floor or with a partner, never salsaing someone. As a gerund it names the activity (salsaing for hours), while the noun salsa names the dance itself.
