Counting Music. HOW TO FIND THE "ONE"

[@PetrusOmnibus]

Outstanding Alexey!!!! Really wishing I had had this years ago! This may seem so simple to many, but to those of us who never had a music class in school and didn’t grow up in a music filled house, this is a breakthrough in clarity. The correlation to grammar is what I was always missing- this all makes sense when you explain it. We appreciate you!!

I’m so happy to hear that, I really appreciate it 🙏🏻🙌🏻

Very good basics. You are so right about having the musicality before getting the steps down. Good Job!

[@ballroomwithalexey3951]

Thank you very much ✌🏻

[@gemshalcyondays]

Thank you so much for these videos on musicality Alexey! I’ve struggled with counting measures for a long time because none of my dance teachers have explained it. This is going to be super helpful 💕

[@ballroomwithalexey3951]

Awesome, I’m glad to hear that you found it helpful. Good luck !

[@serhatyucedag]

which app you used for this video bro

[@keithsawyer9694]

Alexwy, what metronome app do you use? I am a drummer and this video was very helpful so thank you. :)

[@ballroomwithalexey3951]

apps.apple.com/us/app/blocs-wave-record-music-live/id1085697317 I use this app in my video. It’s not actually a metronome app, but you can use it as a metronome.

How can I distinguish beat 1 and 5 when the drum is on 1 and 5 too

[@ballroomwithalexey3951]

This is a great question. It’s not that easy to explain but I will try my best. To do that you need to listen to the whole eight count phrase. And pay attention not only to the drum beats but to other instruments. If you do that then you’ll feel that the first beat always will feel like a beginning of new sentences. Beat 5 will fill like a continuation after comma in complex sentence.

[@balirai6841]

Excellent brother ...I have a question .all songs have same count ????? Or same technique

[@margaretshields5714]

Wow! I never knew the importance this has on our own personal technique. I’m so much happier, such communication with the music. Yes I’m beginning to get this! Thank you Alexey!

[@wtmanders01]

Are there particular songs that are easier to find the first and 5th beat.

[@divinityharrison1054]

I also doing the samba waltz foxtrot for my exam

[@ptoo6348]

[@bossman8602]

[@divinityharrison1054]

[@ballroomwithalexey3951]

I’m glad you’re beginning to understand the beat in music. Keep practicing and paying attention to the rhythm!

[@madafakaniga1]

You very welcome!

[@santhiyag1650]

thank you. You tried to explain the most complicated subject. Well done

[@afinedaytodie666]

Thank you very much Alexey! I mean counting Samba, Cha Cha or Rumba isnst that hard, but do you have tips for the Jive? I hear the 4/4 out and know the counting of the basic steps and drunken sailor but still have problems to dance to the rythm correctly

[@luhaveabier]

Amazing tutorial!!! Wish I saw this when I was learning to count beats, it would've made my life so much easier hahaha Now I'm trying to learn how to teach my students count beats as well and your tutorial was absolutely amazing and useful, thank you so much.
