Salsa Dancing for Beginners

[@ZFlyingVLover]

To all salsa wannabe's . ***IMPORTANT***:Note that you can click on the gear icon in the lower right hand part of the video and slow this or any video down. This is very useful to see what's going on when the instructor isn't thinking about instructing and is just having fun. Sometimes the instructor isn't able to communicate what needs to be done because they either arent good communicators or they forget. For me its been alot easier to watch than to listen to instructions as I am a visual learner. I hope this helps everyone.

[@rtastic11]

THANKS SAME AS YOU VISUAL

[@victoriadegand2393]

Thank you SO MUCH for explaining the way a man leads his partner. Dancing is so easy and so much fun with the man truly knows how to lead, the lady can do ANY thing!

[@guychristophercarter845]

The reason I am watching a salsa tutorial is that it has been nearly a year since I danced and I am getting ready for a big date on Saturday night! I find this very easy to follow. The instructor is excellent and the director and producer of the video really knew what to they are doing. ¡Muchísimas gracias!

[@fotioskiamos5476]

I've been watching your videos for years and I honestly believe that you post the absolute best tutoring salsa videos on the net. I know so because I have attended several dancing lessons. Well done! Greetings from Greece!

[@jackhwolf]

Thank you. I teach Salsa and I sent this to my beginners because it was the most clear and concise video I found in about 20 reviewed so thank you. I stressed that there were always small differences in how everybody teaches and I will mention a few not to criticize but just share my approach. The written text mentioned that stepping on the 2 and 5 were just weight shifts but actually watching you, you are picking up your feet slightly which I always stress b/c I want beginners to step everything out to help with their timing knowing that good dancers will fudge it without losing count. Rather than just pivoting on the ladies 6 I suggest picking up and putting down the R foot. One other thing I try to present the 4 and 8 not as holds, true you dont step on them but your foot should be moving in mid air so your movement is smooth. Small points, I thought I'd share, but thank you for sharing your wisdom and time in an excellent video. Abuelo Salsero, Jack Wolf.

[@Lau0306]

Your way of teaching is so clear and understandable: super!

[@alicialagos3130]

[@addicted2salsa]

We did salsa dancing at our wedding (which was last July). It was fresh and fun - we even got the crowed involved half way through the dance to transition the party and get everyone on the floor.

[@esthergonzalezmartinez3397]

[@petermeets8452]

I need to fresh up my memories. I took some lessons last year but because of Corona I stood still. Too long. Never stop dancing!! That's the most important thing what I learned for now. It's one o clock and I am far from sober . ;-)

[@MarcusBodyCoding]

So did you fresh up your memory?

[@FABIOLINDOCC]

I'm alone trying it out I'm my house but I feel like a learned the basics thanks to you. Will keep watching and learning and dancing 👌🏼

[@eduaradames200]

This is by far the best video on salsa basic steps I have seen so far. Every step is very well explained, including the signals for the lead. Movements are gracious and at the right pace. They focus the camera at the right part of the body, and the quality of the image is awesome. Congratulations guys.

thank you for sharing this video. in the past month a have begun to see style dancing as an outlet for emotions. i have been taking private lessons now for 4 times an hour and i get the basics and some turns of the jive,cha cha, rumba, foxtrot, english walsch and the tango. although they have been fun to learn my real passion is with dances like the salsa and samba in which you can use more of your body. this video has been really helpfull to begin in my journey of salsa and showing my passion for the dance. thank you Addicted2Salsa for sharing thsi video with the world. x

[@blablabladoer]

Appreciation and gratitude to you for your effort and kindness to share this knowledge and skills you have to everyone interested.

[@JoseSantos-tf1wo]

This tutorial was amazing! The explanations were great! The video was well put together. I can't say that I'll be able to do those steps anytime soon. But all I know is that I'll use this video as a great reference while I give salsa another try! Thanks again!

I learned my first setenta from this guy omg 6 years have already passed. I now know Cuban rumba and watching this reminds me how little I knew about "this salsa". And the timing :))))))). You only count music, when you are dancing, with your heart. It took me 4 years to understand that. Cheers I love these tutorials. Great for newbies.

[@andrewbaldie3558]

Wow. Glad to see you're still going Anthony. Been watching your clips since your first ones in 2006. Hair a little longer these days, whilst I've been losing mine. lol. Keep up the good work.

[@georgegarcia7008]

I struggle so bad with partner dancing and salsa dancing. I've had lessons twice and it still feels completely unnatural. This is so embarrassing for me because believe it or not, I'm Cuban American and living in Miami. Knowing how to salsa dance is almost a requirement. It's embarrassing when I say I can't really dance salsa, and people look at me like I'm from Mars. "But aren't you Cuban" they say with a twisted face. Truth is, I grew up in family that never danced and never went to parties. My mother really never thought to teach me. And I really grew up in schools that were completely Americanized. I grew up dancing to The Romantics, U2 and The Police. An 80's MTV kid. It messes with your social life a bit because you're expected to know it. My ex wife didn't care... I think. I've got to at least learn the basic moves this video teaches. Otherwise, they may kick me out of Miami for good!

[@angelicaacevedo-morales191]

Don't feel bad. That's because you was born and raise in America. I'm Puerto Rican. I was born and raise in New York City. I had to teach myself how to dance salsa because my family are just the same as your family. You will learn, it just takes practice.

[@szililolabu]

Manny George it may take months to feel the beat. But worth it.

[@JEANJKKT]

:( I went to this party the other day and I guess the ladies there thought I could dance so I gave it a try (which I can't)... I took a mad L, I was the embarrassment of the party and I'm Ecuadorian. I promise that next time I pull up, imma prove all them wrong 😈🤘

Your instructions are very clear, in the right speed and very easy to follow due to a good amount of repeatings.
