Yoandy Villaurrutia & Lety Cano - Salsa social dancing | 4th World Stars Salsa Festival

[@chrisbullock6477]

Sorry but even 5 years later this is still one of my favorites. Nobody can touch the vibe and creativity. Its not forced or fake, just feel and letting yourself go with all the confidence in the world!!

[@patriceesela5000]

Same here 😅

[@Heunorthodox]

Yep, I still come back to this. I’m taking mental notes

[@PauloFerreira-wb9jh]

Still here ❤😉

[@asduley]

The musicality is crazy in this: Roughly a break down of the transitions 0:00 On2 Contratiempo 0:30 On1 -Pure musicality - 1:12 - outburst of spectator in the background which sounds like she's been attacked (more likely to Yoandy's Son moves) -Pure musicality - 1:35 On2 Contratiempo -Pure musicality - 2:30 On1 (incl. mambo steps to the campana/cowbell) -Pure musicality - 3:18 On2 (during clave section) 3:27 On1 ~Flashy Son stuff ~ 4:00 On2 Contratiempo 4:42 On1 A great of example of switching between leading instruments - simply "dancing as you feel it". A masterclass.

[@sbonfiglioli]

you missed a detail there at 2:30, it's not merely On1, he's doing mambo steps just as the mambo section begins

[@asduley]

@@sbonfiglioli thanks, added. :)

[@marcomazzucconi352]

Amazing musicality. The man dances to all of the instruments playing! I've been watching this clip for a year and I'm still stunned.

[@nicchagall6075]

he has the music in the blood

[@patriceesela5000]

So am I, he didn't miss one intrument or one beat

[@JIKUereno]

Same! I keep coming back to it!

[@adriancopeland686]

Man I watched this about 100 times and am just amazed. There wasn't all these complicated multiple patterns and combinations, but the smoothness and the styling is beautiful.

[@nicchagall6075]

All Yoandy's moves are perfectly coordinated with music and intruments, it is impressive !

[@Fordance100]

I watched around 10 times.

[@papaaggi]

thats the beauty of cuban dance, personal style, body action, musicality, and all the dancing history of cuba combined. Its not only salsa. Its everything.

[@CityExpats]

Yoandy Villaurrutia. He's amazing. He's doing everything to entertain the girl, he does the shoulders, the turns, funky shoe-steps, stop-starts, slow-quick, every 2 seconds some completely new move... I've watched video 10x already. He does a super funny fake-fall (to amuse the girl) at 01:13 so funny :-). Jumps over his own leg at 04:45. Then does this big-fake-fall, at 04:51 genius. Even the girl gets scared (thinking maybe he actually fell!), but no, it's just to amuse her - then cantilever & and he springs back up , Guy is a genius. Still smiling watching him. Plus, girl, Lety Cano, obviously is awesome too

[@memphisbrody8528]

Sorry to be so offtopic but does any of you know a method to get back into an instagram account..? I stupidly lost the login password. I would love any tricks you can give me!

[@lanemusa1528]

@Memphis Brody instablaster ;)

[@Creedlane]

Pretty sure he knows what he's doing with the drops and leg over, they are common moves in hip hop/breaking, and I wouldn't be surprised if he had done some before like other salsa dancers with unique style (Terry for instance !)

[@hvince67]

​@@Creedlane Oh... Interesting, so the "knee drop", that's a hip-hop move. Thanks. I didn't know that or the name of the move. Haven't seen Terry do it but certainly some other Cuban leaders do it. It looks fab. when done properly. That must be very difficult to execute, you also don't want to pull the follower with you during the move.

[@virality9000]

@@hvince67 the main thing is that you need enough power in your muscles to do that... look at les twins, who pull off otherwordly moves like low spins on the toe while sitting down :D

So deep .. so truee.. 👏👏👏

[@IvanG-e3g]

Questo è un video che non mi stanco mai di guardare! Ballare , interpretando e gustandosi il brano non è una cosa che vedi spesso. Balla su tutto quanto, balla sentendo! E la cosa più bella è quando chi balla con te, riesce a entrare in sintonia!

[@micheledebiasio2999]

Absolutely without words! This is ❤️ for the cuban music!

[@billytumorenito]

Cuando vayas a unas de sus clases te muere !! Es el mejor

[@magickiori]

Me sorprende demasiado su manera de improvisar en la pista de baile, se nota que disfruta la cancion a su manera y es capaz de bailarla como a el le plazca.

[@PleakTCG]

Musicality, passion and love on this dance floor. These two killed it.

[@DrGekido]

They're so good! Love it. His Rumba is perfect and her movements are so smooth, She follows him perfectly

[@prestonwelker3641]

His vacuum is perfect?

[@thegentlemandj4629]

Gotta appreciate the passion and enjoyment these dancers bring! You can argue about whether their style of dress or dance fits a certain criteria but at the end of the day it boils down to the two individuals sharing the dance. Their connection, lead-follow communication, and musicality makes the dance FOR THEM. I've only been a salsa dancer for a few years now and dances like this are the reason why. When you, your partner, and the music are just in perfect sync it's the best feeling. During dances like that, the rules of the dance are only a suggestion as you transcend the dance. It feels like so much more than just salsa. Tough to explain, but dancer's know. So I can't knock Yoandy & Lety for their sharing a moment in dance that is personal to them in that moment and having so much fun with it. Note: It looks to me like they are dancing a fusion of Rumba, Guaguanco, Casino, Mambo, and On1 Salsa

[@maxpayne6919]

"the rules of the dance are only a suggestion as you transcend the dance" perfectly explained..! i agree so much to this

[@bienaime7064]

You said: "Gotta appreciate the passion and enjoyment these dancers bring! ". Why this note then:"It looks to me like they are dancing a fusion of Rumba, Guaguanco, Casino, Mambo, and On1 Salsa". Who cares? I don't. Everything you said was perfect without if.

[@casilatino]

I agree, it doesn't matter what style of dance people think they are or are not dancing. What matters is that they are both dancing to the music and having a great time and putting on a show too. I found this dance to be awesome.

[@martinlee1251]

yep. as a 18 year salsa dancer and 10 year ball room dancer, musicality gives me a freedom to mix all the dance in a just one song. you can follow music but sometimes it is more enjoyable to lead the music and add your own musical appreciation while dancing.

[@chrisbullock6477]

That's a totally personal critic. Nobody is here to preach about clothes at a WORLD SALSA FESTIVAL of all places. Just too much great music and dancing to appreciate. LOL

[@mariselagarciaduran3061]

Excelentes bailadores.....ritmo,pasión y sabor,la esencia de todo buen salsero.

[@michellecgb]

Me encanta ver bailarines como ella y Desirée o La Alemana que se especializan en bachata bailar salsa. Crean algo muuuy distinto y puede que a veces no vaya con la música, pero se ve súper estilizado y bonito de todas maneras. Al final la música se interpreta como a uno le de la gana y con los recursos que uno tenga.

[@tuindiodelasreservas]

La alemana consiguió fama con la. Bachata pero realmente es salsera, hay videos de concursos de antes del bun donde concursan en campeonatos de salsa y creo q desire también

tus palabras fueron exactamente lo que expresa Yoandy bailando salsa

[@sergiotellez4534]

Yoandi es un Máster. Todo el swing que no se aquiere; se nace con él

[@AlvaroOrdonezGomez]

Simplemente ¡Brillante! Qué sencillo lo hacen y qué complejo es a la vez lograr esos movimientos y esa conexión latente, esa intuición comprendida. Chapeau!

[@JerryNordstrom]

That man's style is on point. The dancing, clearly tops, regardless if the fall move was planned or not, he pulled it off like a pro. Most impressive... he's not a soaked sponge ... how do you pull that one off?

[@mrtenglishteacher4349]

Oye. . . my dance class at school is having a debate: I argue that the fall to the floor at the end is a traditional dance move (Cuban), but my class believes it was a well-played-off fall. ANSWERS?

[@thegentlemandj4629]

Safe to say, these guys got their salsa fix. To quote my friend's book on salsa: "a “Salsa fix” is the feeling of euphoria that one attains while Salsa dancing. It’s that feeling of satisfaction one achieves when the moves, music and a strong connection with your partner come together almost perfectly on the dance floor." - Dale Mambo by Jason Harry

I realise that the male salsa dancers that I admire the most like this guy and Maykel Fonts are able to stop. Most salsa dancers just keep spinning throughout the song but so nice to see something relatively simple like a proper stop executed so well. Of course, they have top tier body control which makes it easier to do something during that space.

[@mehdielabdaoui1955]

Yoandy is better than Maykel Fonts in social dance. Maykel Fonts does not impress me in social.
