I have been to salsa classes where they blatantly refused to explain anything about the music as related to the dance, as if it's too complicated for beginners. Thank you!

This is an excellent job you have done explaining Salsa Rhythm. I am a serious bassist and have always been able to feel the rhythms of Salsa. However being self-taught, you have given me a complete understanding of what I've been playing all these years. It's like when I purchased my first bass book, I got so I would know what I was already playing, so I could put a name to what I was playing. Again this is one of the best teaching video's I've seen on KZbin. Thanks a million. Peace

As someone who is well versed in regular POP music (I'm a DJ), I must admit that it took a few times to watch this over and over before I "really" understood where I was going wrong with getting this beat count in salsa. You mentioned it right in the beginning, right in front of my face. Then, at the end, you hit the nail right on the head with the "shine" part. That was exactly how I felt before I saw your video. But, now, after watching your video for the 4th time, and having really started to examine how people really dance together BEYOND JUST THE CLASSROOM SETTING, I happy to say that I am no longer afraid of this dance. You've broken it down 100% accurately from the perspective of a newbie/rookie. I THANK YOU GREATLY for this well detailed explanation! This makes perfect sense. Salsa is totally different EXPRESSED rhythmic pattern and now I get it. I will share this with my students and friends as well. THANK YOU AGAIN!! -Tourino TShirtprinter Jacks

This is probably the best and most concise video I've ever seen explaining timing and rhythm. Very well put together and very thorough! Thanks for doing this!

I put together a small list of answers to frequently asked questions. Also a few people asked for a transcript of the video and I provided that as well. You can see the URL by clicking on "Show more" below the video. It is at the bottom of the description. Thank you for watching!

Amazingly well explained, good job man! Most dancers try to explain everything by making a video showing just talking and dancing, but a little multimedia goes a long way.

Excellent video! Great explanations. I don't consider myself a beginner salsa dancer but in terms of understanding the music and being able to change my dance to reflect the music, I am very much an absolute beginner. I think a grasp of salsa musicality will push my dancing up to the next level.

This was excellent for me and I'm not a beginner. I've been dancing salsa for about six years and dancing to pop/hip hop my whole life. You explained aspects of salsa dancer in terms that I'd never heard it before. You're explanations really clarified some things for me. Thank you!

I wonder how a guy called the root of borscht (of all things) does such a good expanation of multilyerd salsa rhythms. Great encouraging expanation, very well thought out and worded !

I am a complete beginner trying to learn music theory and salsa is one of the genrés I like. This video is BRILLIANT. Well laid out, well explained, well produced. You should post on a regular basis because for me you know how to explain and teach clearly. I will be watching this video on a regular basis. For clear presentation and teaching top marks to you. 11 out of 10. More videos please!!!

This is really good: Complex enough to do the subject justice. But also simplifying or rather cutting to the core of what is relevant for the dancer. Thanks most of all to that encouraging pointer as to why I should train shines and what I should be looking for when doing just that.

Very well explained, especially the role different instruments play and how they overlap in Salsa. I've taken beginner and intermediate beginner classes and I've found that many instructors spend little to no time at all on explaining the musicality and rhythm of salsa. In the end you get students who are counting but don't know what they are counting to, and in the end they are not dancing with the music at all as they are more focused on counting. I agree with Ana's comment below. If salsa instructors are not teaching this already, then they should make this video this mandatory for all new students.

This is awesome! Please post more of these. Maybe ones which involve some exercises for us to do, where you play some music and we're supposed to find the count and then you give us the answer. Maybe start with some simply tunes and then progressively complicate them and up the tempo. Thanks again!

Excellent explanation on salsa rhythm! The visuals and musical examples are instrumental (pun intended) in delivering a clear lesson. Isn't there a difference between on 2 and New York style on 2? Perhaps this could be your next video lesson. On 2 is my kryptonite sometimes. I will be reviewing often so I can switch from on 1 to on 2 on a given night with more confidence. Thank you!
