- If you need help with finding the 1 when you're listening to the salsa rhythm, practice listening to this song.
Count out loud when you watch the video... Then look away from the screen and listen. Test your self, and see if you are getting it.
Pay attention to what instruments make a sound on which number, and what patterns repeat themselves.
Getting used to the salsa rhythm takes time, and it's something that gets better with practice!
Enjoy!

This is what I've been needing for a long time. Dancing in a class when someone is calling out the beat is one thing, but for someone who has listened to and played 4/4 music for decades, finding the beat where there is no kick/snare was very problematic. Thanks!!
That's awesome. Glad it helped!
thanks so much. This is great. Could you do a couple of songs like this. Finding the beat is killing me. Songs with slow medium and fast rhythms. Want to start going to the salsa clubs in Colombia and am having a hard time syncing with the beat.
Thank you. This is SUPER helpful. Been search for something like this for a while. To me, music is the hardest part of dancing.
Amazing video! It’s hard to find simple and effective videos that teach salsa beat counting.
Really Amazing presentation 👏 Good luck
I love the visual and being able to play this on repeat!
Such an underrated video!! Bachata, hip hop, rap, techno kizomba, house,
Reggae, etc. Salsa is the only one I could never find the beat.
We are same lol
Salsa is the only one where I can't find the best.
Visual without the repeated counting aloud ( chefs kiss)
Excellent video!!
You are the chief!
Super❤
Great! This helps a lot!
it is easy the music salsa follow pop but very difficult when listen the music salsa with piano, tumbao (congo drums) , clave and another....
Thanks!
thank you a loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooootttttttttttttttttttttt
How we distinguish the 1 and 5, both of them start fast fast?
so why don’t we count 4 and 8
Is there something even simpler. I’ve taken classes but it doesn’t click. How do i find the rhythm
What am I supposed to be listening for? I don't understand?
Same question.
The beat, the clave, unfortunately I only heard the beat from step 3 and 7. Sometimes I also hear from step 2, but very rare
Try to differentiate the different instrument in the background. They usually form background beats that change periodically.
If you notice well, when a new instrument is introduced or changes, you know that we start back from 1. Usually, in that song each instrument stays for around 16 or 24 counts
The piano
Any way you look at it- it’s quick quick slow or slow quick quick
its quick qucik slow, quick, quick, slow
Actually if you're talking about the salsa basic footwork,
It's
Slow quick slow, slow quick slow.
The step-throughs take more time (1.5 beats)
The 'quicks' are where you just change weight.
@@turbohotrichcrypto4179 you are describing the same - it just depends were the quick quick ends up in the foot work
What instrument is account based on?
Son clave
But you're still tapping pretty much ON 3 & 7, which means it's not 'slow'.
The footwork timing is 3& and 7&
It's "slow" because you're not stepping on the 4 or the 8.
So in all salsa songs, the beat is like this?
No
I don’t understand whats supposed to be quick and whats supposed to be slow? 😭
It's a common but actually erroneous way of teaching salsa footwork.
Even by its own model it's wrong.
It should be
slow quick slow,
slow quick slow.
The part where you simply change weight is quick, while
stepping through is slow.
Sort of.
The timing of salsa steps is actually
1 2 3& 5 6 7& (1)
