As a Latina, I really wanted to learn this for Abuela. She used to love watching all the young guys and girls salsa dancing in Puerto Rico before she up moved here to Arkansas, and she asked me and my boyfriend to learn it so she can watch it again and relive those moments from Puerto Rico. Thank you for this video.

Arielle Slinger Me too. My co worker who’s from Colombia introduced me to his Cousin and hit it off. She likes to dance sometimes but likes a lot of music so it helps me since she likes rock too so I want to learn this for her..and myself of course. My co worker was saying just learning basic moves, move your hips, and just go with it, that’s all you need. Obviously if you want to be more technical, it’s more advanced. Just have fun he says. I wish you luck my friend. Also, impress her by being you & don’t take any BS, it’s crazy out there. Best wishes!

Hardest part about salsa dancing for the men is getting an ear for the beat. Once you got that down, everything else falls into place. I just listened to salsa music over and over again, dancing by myself in the subway even, so I could get a feel for the beat. It eventually came to me and I was like, "Cool!" haha!

@kaimln 3 жыл бұрын

I have listened to salsa so many hours i cant record. Im both half latin and half white, and if you arent raised on salsa, it takes a while to learn this dance. I have the beat, no doubt (soy Latino), but you still need to know the steps as taught in this video. Que Viva Puerto Rico!

@76muhammad76 3 жыл бұрын

Exactly! I took some lessons in Mexico but I am Pakistani and I just can't get the beat. I keep on saying 1 2 3 5 6 7 in my heart :D

It is hard to get the beat. Do you have trick? For example, in this song I can’t assign 1 2 3 and 5 6 7 to the beat

When they twist a bit with their hips in every step it really makes the biggest difference then just stepping back and forth that little flare is what makes the dance look magical

And also, thank you for teaching steps in such a straoghtforward, kinesiological manner. You just got yourselves a die hard fan and a student.

Wait i just realized my go-to dance style in social situations w/ dancing is salsa. I've taken a bit of ballroom and latin, a little jazz and tap, tiny bit of hip, some folk dance, flamenco, and tons of ballet, but never ever salsa specifically!!! It feels like one of the simplest types of Latin dance, and i guess some of the other short periods i did some other Latin dances carried over lol

Question: when doing the spins are you still doing the front/back/side/side movements? Are you still keeping a count in your head? I can do the basic steps but once I get into the spins I can’t time them with the music and come out off rhythm. Usually able to find the best quickly but it’s still awkward having to find your step after the spins.

The side basic in salsa - much different lower body technique here. It is a throwback to the rumba cucaracha "or pressure" step, but with a big difference. The legs in the side basic are not totally straight unlike in the Rumba cucaracha step - in the salsa cucaracha, they are a bit more "flexy" and "bendy" than the rumba counterpart.

great videos. Most videos are too dark or hard to understand with poor audio. production is important for education in dances! I also appreciate the building blocks incorporated into dancing. My only gripe is the loose pants in some of the videos that make it hard to see the leg movements, thankfully the Merengue one was simple enough. Good stuff, i will watch more :)
