It was popular in seventeenth-century Spain and is based on African rhythms.This dance form is extremely popular. It is performed by both men and women in wonderful costumes. There is a cantalante or a lead female singer who leads the dance. The estrobillo or the chorus claps and sings to which the dancers dance.

At the end of the 1990's folklore music (música típica)became more and more popular among all social levels and the tamborito and other dances were heard and dance everywhere.
