as for attentiveness, I was at the LA Bachata Festival this past year, & one of the guys on a performance team was trying to show off with his partner on the crowded dance floor, taking up tons of space without looking to be safe. she could barely stay on her feet, and it ended with him getting too close to my partner and myself who were dancing in a small polite amount of space (but still having a good dance!). he stopped her suddenly next to us & her elbow clipped my face. so professional.
God Bless you Shani! It is very true the important when a man is attentive in partnering with the ladies when it come to dancing. Also not showing off what they can't do to impress the ladies. I am an Advanced dancer here in Boston and also had the opportunity to dance with you at a Conneticut salsa event. I was honored to show you off, hope to do it again sometime soon. :-)
I love Shani Talmor's dancing! Yeah, you don't need to be Latino to feel the music...if you enjoy the music that is all you need. However, I personally like salsa that tries to stick more with its roots, than the creative hybrid modern salsa. I am not saying one is better than the other, it is just my personal preference.
Not sure if you have found out yet, but I've been personally looking all over the place for it myself- in any case it's Fragilidad by Milagros Piñera & Sanmera
I don't think that men are necessarily inattentive. Sometimes the man is caught up in what's coming next, where's the space, etc - especially beginner intermediate dancers. It's not that he's forcing what he knows on the woman...he's just doing what he knows how to do...sometimes that's all he knows how to do and he's restrained by that.
I hate when some partners (guys and girls) use the other as a prop to show off their own skills alone. no eye contact, no attention to the other dancers level, not trying to have fun TOGETHER, and totally ignoring dance SAFETY. one man had to be asked to leave the club because he was tossing his beginner/intermediate/advanced partners into the air against their will, and hurting them. his response in general was that they didn't know how to dance properly, and he was showing them "real dancing"
Shani Talmorr la mejorrr ven a Peruuuu

What is the song playing at 1:57? I've heard it like million times but don't know who sings it.

I don't think so, in a way she compliments them on keeping to the roots of sala
How is she the leading authority on Salsa? What she said wasn't original at all.
