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!
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!
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.
her posture is amazing always on point and he's also a good instructor very easy to follow, I can now start learning something I should've a long time ago
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!
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.
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 . ;-)
Addicted2Salsa hi everyone ,if anyone else is searching for learn how to dance online lessons try Barkola Smooth Dance Blueprint ( search on google ) ? Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my colleague got cool results with it.
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.
Learning salsa for my Hispanic boyfriend, he loves to dance around the kitchen with me and I can’t dance to save my life, no rhythm and very very klutzy😅
This is sooo clear and precise!! Just the video I was looking for! Thanks so much! I'm hoping my fiance and I could learn some dances for the wedding to spice things up! I'm def subscribing :-)
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.
Im gonna have my quince and i’m playing this video for two of my gringo friends that don’t know how to baila pero, whoever else is here learning for someone’s quince i promise u it means sm to the girl that ur learning how to dance for her quince
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
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!
thank you thank you...I went out with friends and came across this beautiful dance and music...However I m far from a beginner never danced...you have made this so simple for people like me ..again thank you!
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!
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.
:( 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 😈🤘
BAESIKLI bro I'm taking this girl on a date and she wants to go salsa dancing but I don't even know the basics which I told her, but she's persistent on we go. Time to swallow my pride and just dance
Your instructions are very clear, in the right speed and very easy to follow due to a good amount of repeatings. But i would like to learn Salsa Cubana first since my friend is already very familar with Salsa Cubana, do you or anyone else know a good page with free tutorials on Salsa Cubana? I did only find relatively bad tutorials compared to yours...
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.
Thank you very much, hopefully I can get those basic steps down and I wont be made fun of anymore. Still dont have the hips to make the moves look smooth. Still stiff
Thank you so much for all the amazing material you have and the great lessons. It has been an amazing help for me and my small dance group with my friends!!!!
Your instructions are very clear and easy to follow. I have my first social coming up this weekend, so thanks very much for everything you've posted over the years!
I agree it is a good idea to start with less turns and more variations of the same simple moves to give you the confidence... . . I have some cool tutorials on my channel doing just that 😀
for the cross body lead you said the lead should step in place on 5 but I saw that you step out of place and went back. Is step back what you normally do even if it's suppose to be u step in place?
We have a Salsa Week in school. I mean, not everyone. You can close what you wanna do in these days, there are special offers. I chose Salsa and tomorrow it‘ll start and I wanted to know something before.😂thx you did well❤️
Great video! I like his shoes, anyone know what brand they are or where I can get them? When I took my first lesson the instructor had me place duct tape to the soles of my shoes, under the ball, so I could glide and slide, huge difference.
@@muscabjamal9589 you don't need a party to start practicing! There's so much you can do on your own! It's even better to start alone I'm speaking from experience dancing teaching and performing for 12 years

Tip: You can adjust the speed on the video settings to make to slow.
T hit the 3 dots in the right top of the video and a menu will show up. Then select the playback speed you need.

This channel has a bazillion views and thousands of likes! WHY did this couple stop making videos? They have an excellent app as well?
Agree!
Gracias Anthony, me sirven tus vídeos para iniciar a aprender salsa en línea¡
The best part is that is free ,
Thanks for the VDO A-SOME.)
Thank you very much to you Anthony and Julie. I like your video is because you guys teaching is very clear to understand and slow step by step.
Your instructions are very clear, in the right speed and very easy to follow due to a good amount of repeatings.

thanks this makes what looks complicated, very easy.
I call him "master of Salsa". Thanks master.
Love it n thank you alot because many things i forget but with this video remind me were i was learning salsa . God bless you
Thanks, guys! Thank you very much!
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.
U r the best teacher on u tube
Great supplement for my salsa class!
Can you dance like this to a Colombian song like "oiga mira veia" or does it have to be faster
Thank you very much, hopefully I can get those basic steps down and I wont be made fun of anymore. Still dont have the hips to make the moves look smooth. Still stiff
Very good teacher! Thank you! I’m catching on much better now that I’ve watched this video a few times
Thank you so much for all the amazing material you have and the great lessons. It has been an amazing help for me and my small dance group with my friends!!!!
Your instructions are very clear and easy to follow. I have my first social coming up this weekend, so thanks very much for everything you've posted over the years!
This is genius! Now it makes it easier to help my friends learn.
Thanks for wonderful session
Does it have to be the left hand that holds her, or, can it be the right hand?
No joke you guys really helped me out. Thank you so much
You are a great teacher.i would like take some salsa dances from you.
Just the kind of video I was looking for. Thanks for posting this!
very fluid ... nicely done tutorial. We are raring for the next lesson. Need something with less turns!
I agree it is a good idea to start with less turns and more variations of the same simple moves to give you the confidence...

I have some cool tutorials on my channel doing just that 😀

Salsa is fun and its a real skill to do those moves.
This is the best tutorial I have seen
What's the difference between the regular cross body lead with the shanay turn and the 180 one?
Learned this in school. It's so fun!
Great explanation guys! Thank you! The song is a bit fast I believe.
That was exactly what I was looking for!
Do you still upgrade your Salsa App with new videos? Since the last Video on TH-cam is 4 years old I´m a bit worried :/
So simple yet so difficult. It will take a couple of hours of practise for sure.
Loved the video! Very easy steps love how you broke it down.
Great video! I like his shoes, anyone know what brand they are or where I can get them? When I took my first lesson the instructor had me place duct tape to the soles of my shoes, under the ball, so I could glide and slide, huge difference.
Amazing !!! you really made it easy. Thank you so much
Wow, dancing is so easy to learn.
I am going to learn how to Salsa dance. Thank you so much for the lessons. God Bless
is all these moves in one synchronize routine together?
So.. when do you throw in the corn and cilantro? I’m confused.
instructions unclear, headbutted my wife
😂😂😂😂 are you ok?
Instructions unclear. Legs have become Broccoli.
@@thelovelyone1582 😃😃😃😃😃
Haha 😂😂
Omg 😂😂😂
do ladies turn to the right as their partner turns them or to the left? im very new to salsa
i can dance salsa now.... Thanks!... Love your video
When you dont have partner to dance with😭😪
Same here 😂😂😂😂
You don't need a partner to start practicing!
I just published full tutorials about that!
@@muscabjamal9589 you don't need a party to start practicing! There's so much you can do on your own!
It's even better to start alone

Dancing bachata is like a game of checkers but dancing salsa is like playing a game of chess hahaha
@@MarcusBodyCoding tysm. Quarantine moves I'm coming for you
Can anyone recommend a slow music that's good for practicing the steps in this video?? thanks!
super návod, už se těším na salsu v tanečních:)
i wanna ask a question , is it always the boy have to hold the girl by the right hand or u can do what u like ?
This is amazing, but you wont learn it unless you do it physically i mean with a partner and an instructor to correct your posture
