The unlock for me was to practice 1/4 and 1/2 spins (like I do in the tutorials on my channel).

I have been having difficulty with spinning. Videos I have watched from ohters didn't explain why you do certain things. But you explained this very well and helped me a lot. I also love how you explain things so kindly. Thank you Rasa!
Thank you very mucha Rasa, since yesterday I have seen ten of your videos, they are very helpfully. I love them, thanks for your help you are a great teacher. Greetings from Bolivia 🇧🇴
Another great video Rasa, I’ve practiced the spinning techniques and they’ve worked a treat . I’ll look forward to a styling video as mine could use some work 😊.
Thank you so much Rasa your videos are so informative (and funny too!). Do you have any tips on how to follow well when it comes to spins in socials? I find it a lot easier to keep them controlled by myself but sometimes I feel like I feel the signal for the second turn late so it’s not as “neat”. Hopefully that makes sense 😅 Thank you again!
It does, it can not be perfect all the time, some will be better then others and it's ok 😉. Firstly never a good idea to predict or rush, you have to find the sweet spot to be insinc. Secondly if you can spin on your own well you will notice things get easier with a partner, cause you'll be able to balance better even with a bad prep , so if I were you I'd focus on that 😇.
Can’t wait for it! And I have one more request: how to incorporate the head toss (hair flip) in the turn in salsa or bachata? It would my dream come true if you could explain it! 😇🙏
Thank You, Rasa! I watch each and every video made by you! How can I practice spins more efficiently if I get nauseated every time I do multiple spins? Spotting doesn't help :( Does this feeling go away with time?
Usually it goes away...just push threw it...dont stop when you get sick...keep going. If it doesnt work maybe advise a doctor of some things that could help you 😊
Can you talk about how to lead into the prep position? I see you counted 1-2-3 but you only step on 1 and 2. How do you prevent the lady step forward on count 3? Thank you.
Absolutely, a spin is turning fully one one leg, elevating all through the turn, a normal turn is taking 3 steps to complete the turn, a traveling turn is also taking steps while traveling.
Depends how regular you practice , every day at least 10 15 minutes you will definitely see results in a month or 2. But 8t really depends on a person 😉
@@kimberlyrobinson1978 always remember what we invest in ourselves is what we get, but either way dancing is suppose to be fun so enjoy the process in the mean time ❤
Thank you for your precious lectures... I have a question about turning count of inside, outside, right and left turns... As long as I understand, left, inside turns' count of turning is 3. And right, outside turns' is 2... aren't they ? But my salsa teacher told me that right turn starts on 2 and outside turn starts on 1... I am so confused... Thanks for reading... Have a nice day... ;D
@@DanceWithRasa I dance on 2... And I wonder the count of leader when he make his follower turn... inside turn, outside turn, and right turn.. Thanks...

Coming up next month 😇

@@salseritalinda248 thats a good one, will make sure to do that as well 😇
My biggest takeaway from the video: you can keep your socks on half of your feet so your heels stay sticky. Genius.
Well that really helps 😂
very useful. thanks!
Your welcome 🤩
crazy good. Thank you!!!!!!!
Glad its useful 💕
You are amazing!!!!!!!
Thank you so much 😉💕
Thank you, Rasa 😘😘 this is super useful! I'm practicing your techniques now :D

I love how blunt she is!!! Big deal you will get up. so right.
Thank you very much, I do think being kind but honest is important 😇
thank you for great lessons... I wonder what's the difference between spin and turn ...?
The spin is when you balance all the way only on one leg, a turn is when stepping threw the turn on more then one leg. 😊
@@DanceWithRasa Thank you so much for your answer...^^. 감사합니다...(Korean language)
My pleasure, any time 😉
Do you have a technique video for cross body outside turns with more than 2 turns?
Not for 3 and more , but happy to make one 😇
👏🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽!!!
🤗🤗🤗
Rasa, How about multiple spins with deplasasation? I have always wanted to learn to make them, please help me ❤️
I will make a video on that too 😉
Thank YOU 😍
Can you talk about how to lead into the prep position? I see you counted 1-2-3 but you only step on 1 and 2. How do you prevent the lady step forward on count 3? Thank you.
Very good point...i will make a video of how to lead it next 😉
Is there a difference between a spin and a turn?? Is one in place and one travels?
Absolutely, a spin is turning fully one one leg, elevating all through the turn, a normal turn is taking 3 steps to complete the turn, a traveling turn is also taking steps while traveling.
Makes sense! Thank you!
Vow😍

I need more information about this question, do you dance x body salsa on 1? Also is the question for partner dance or you mean turning on your own?
@@DanceWithRasa I dance on 2... And I wonder the count of leader when he make his follower turn... inside turn, outside turn, and right turn.. Thanks...
@@dadakim1165 inside turn, prep on 2 turn on 3 , outside turns prep on 1 turn on 2 :) does that makes sence?
So i think your teacher includes preparation as part of the turn 😉
@@DanceWithRasa I agree with you... I think so too.. Thanks for the clear answer... ;D
Rasa can you please send the link of the first spin video?

Hast du ursprünglich eine professionelle Ausbildung in Ballett gemacht?
Nine, Aber Ballroom Ja 😉
What are you wearing on your feet?
Actually normal every day boots but with very slippery surface 😇.
@@DanceWithRasa are socks ok to use if I’m practicing at home?
@@lindarivera8954 oh definitely I do it all the time, just not too skinny, you'll feel more comfortable 😊.
