You may have no previous dance experience, so you're learning about the music, timing, and you may be counting music for the first time. You are also learning the nuances of partner dancing, so you'll be learning about how to connect with your dance partner and social dance etiquette.
The Reverse Cross Body Lead is a connecting move that allows you to travel instead of staying in one place.

Give yourself plenty of time. Do a basic. Make it sure the left step is clear so she knows the something has changed. Remember to use your frame to communicate the change.

[@TheSalsaBeat]

Great pointers. Thanks for sharing 🫶🏼

I love you say to remember to smile. I can be in the head so much learning this that I’m thinking instead of letting loose and flow with the dance. Reminding us to smile has helped!!

[@TheSalsaBeat]

Thanks for the kudos Suz P. Glad to hear that the Smiling Reminders help. I wasn’t sure if it’ll get old but now we know to keep encouraging more and more smiles. :)
