Quick quick slow , and this really help and easier if my hips - two total hips last year in Aug and Dec plus back surgery ! This is so smooth! I love it - 🙏, I’d wish I’d done this sooner!
Please don’t ever stop showing and teaching Salsa dance (my first dance lessons) especially for this ole man-60 y.o. You make it easy to follow and understand the steps! Thank you!
This is immensely useful and exactly the reply on how to interprete that famous "quick, quick, slooow". What is a slow step supposed to be, if not hanging with one foot in the air? Here you split up in an eccellent manner footwork and body movement. Thanks!!!
Can you do a tip video on the mambo jazz move and maybe how to not travel or move forward toward your partner on the Susie q. And even for women to to increase your feeling of steadiness when dancing in heels. Video ideas...lol thanks.
I'd like to add that your tip for beginners to try and roll through the stop sign is premature if a person doesn't understand the beat yet, nor a hold on the 4 and 8 counts. It's a matter of styling as well, that you can move your body differently when you pause on those beats, or even lift your feet in different ways. No movement is inhibiting if you are moving to the beat of the music. For example, we use the pause in the middle to move laterally as well, in Cuban style salsa and rueda de casino. It's all a matter of styling, and you're only teaching one style. I see that one of the mistakes that "teachers" make is not to emphasize learning to listen to the music, just walking to the beat, and to the different parts of the music in order to respond and express yourself through your movements. I don't see anyone teaching musicality, nor how to find the "one" or "two" beat of the music. People just start going back and forth without any knowledge of what they're supposed to be listening to.
Hey Kathryn, thanks for your comment! you're totally right that this tip isn't all encompassing. Those are all great points and in the paid program on our website we cover the majority for LA and NY style salsa (not cuban, as of now). We find it's best to give short digestible doses of information. The single aim of this tip is to help beginnings smooth out their basic step by passing through the middle instead of stepping quick-quick-stop.

Jose Caraballo they're ballroom dancers, you don't need those shoes nor the drifting forward and back of the hips if you're not dancing ballroom. In NY on2, it's wrong to travel as it changes distance between partners during partnerwork.
I'm pretty sure you don't even dance salsa, you just think you do. What you dance is called "Cumbia" - no es salsa. Don't comment if you risk looking stupid, just some advice.

Yeah, I didn't really understand as a beginner.
Lovely
Thanks for watching!
Would this apply in Bachata as well?
The rhythm of the bachata basic is different so it doesn't apply. There is no quick quick slow in bachata. Hope that helps! -Robin

What's up with then shoes, is that a requirement ? I have been dancing salsa since salsa came out and saw no one wearing then ugglu shoes
The shoes aren't important. As long as you're comfortable you can wear whatever shoes you like Jose!
Sure you have. Cumbia no es salsa. Also - if it's Cuban, that's "Casino", not salsa. Arrogance and ignorance must be bliss hey?
Estos "latinos" creen que el salsa es "en el sangre" pero no tienen nada de idea.

The movement you do, is Latin American.
Rumba, Cha cha etc ...
It is not salsa.
+Fabrizio Corpora how is not salsa?
No sabes de que hablas.
