Thank you so much. Practice is indeed the key to remember these syncopations. These syncopations when done side by side in tandem is another way to get leaders and followers to remember and can serve as shines.

[@DanceWithRasa]

Absolutely 😉

I am kinda confused. The meaning of SYNCOPATION is a temporary displacement of the regular metrical accent in music caused typically by stressing the weak beat. but here I see ADDing , not shifting I as far as I know for example base line offen sincopated 1 2& ( instead of 2) - that is syncopation. 4 & 1 - cha cha One

[@DanceWithRasa]

Syncopation here is used as smth that is faster then a normal beat, so instead of 1 2 3 you have and 1 and 2 and 3 ...does that makes sence?

[@maddyIncubus]

awesome!!!!

[@DanceWithRasa]

Thank you 😊

[@anamariamoran5052]

Excelent! Loved it. One important issue though, there is only 1 bachata, it has had a lot of evolution, and it happened in Dominican Republic. Now sensual in particular, it is not Bachata, but rather an apropriation derived from a fake Zouk, which is Brazilian Zouk. In case you didnt know Zouk is not Brazilian. The original was created in Les Antilles and Haitians have the authentic, which is danced all over the Caribbean. Brazilians, did the same as Spaniards with bachata. They invented this new zouk, and called it Brazilian because they didnt like the original. Now the are no similarities between Zouk and Brazilian Zouk. Same goes for sensual, which was invented by people that didnt like the dance, nor the music of authentic bachata

[@DanceWithRasa]

All very true 👍 I personally know all of it, and I talked about it, but those who don't need to be invited and introduced to history 😉

[@donaldwilson5693]

That was a really good and clear dance step video! I live in the Dominican Republic, love bachata music, and can dance basic bachata. It looks to me like you have really picked up authentic Dominican style very well. Hope to see more videos soon.

[@DanceWithRasa]

That really means a lot, thank you so much 🙏 definitely more coming 😉

[@jeanfrancoisbrahimi1506]

Hello merci mais , pour le double kick j ai tendance à taper avec le talon est ce grave ?

[@DanceWithRasa]

No problem, just another way to style it. I prefer with a tap, but you can definitely do it with the heal 😉

[@meagalaxy5407]

Thanks so much for the slow explanations for the three types of syncopations.

[@DanceWithRasa]

I want you all to get more comfortable with them and have fun 👍
