Salsa has several "Cross Body Leads" and the “Fake Cross Body Lead” is one that gets led often. As mentioned in the video, it’s a great move to use when you’re trying to be musical and hits those hits in the music. Because the “Fake Cross Body Lead” also has an element of surprise, it can be intricate to lead and can cause pain on the wrists, or shoulders, when done incorrectly, or forcefully. This is why we broke-it-down layer by layer, hand by hand.
Thank you for watching! Enjoy!

"Always smile" is a very important tip. I dance with salseros with good attitude. Not after their dance skills. I don't enjoy dancing with a man who just wants to show off his dance skills even though he he can dance very well. Smile plz!
