As a Latina, I really wanted to learn this for Abuela. She used to love watching all the young guys and girls salsa dancing in Puerto Rico before she up moved here to Arkansas, and she asked me and my boyfriend to learn it so she can watch it again and relive those moments from Puerto Rico. Thank you for this video.

Hardest part about salsa dancing for the men is getting an ear for the beat. Once you got that down, everything else falls into place. I just listened to salsa music over and over again, dancing by myself in the subway even, so I could get a feel for the beat. It eventually came to me and I was like, "Cool!" haha!

I live in Medellin, i have to start learning the salsa. Everybody dances like profesionales here. Even the kids.

When they twist a bit with their hips in every step it really makes the biggest difference then just stepping back and forth that little flare is what makes the dance look magical

Love this video so much! As a Latina it’s always been embarrassing for me that I can’t salsa but this video has helped so much! I don’t feel like I’m completely lost anymore. I’ve watched many videos before this one and none have been as detailed. You guys are amazing!

Just had my first Salsa lesson. My husband & I were wishing we could practice at home but needed someone to follow. Decided to look on YouTube and found your videos. I think we are going to sign up for your membership. Dance, dance, dance! 😍

My dear guys, THANK YOU for explaining leading - following so well. I'm a salsa dancer with a looong resume but only recently I started to lead and although I know 'by the feeling' what to do, I was very unclear how to do it exactly. And also, thank you for teaching steps in such a straoghtforward, kinesiological manner. You just got yourselves a die hard fan and a student.

[garyfiedler]

I thank you both! My wife and I are attending a Salsa Party in two weeks, your video has me feeling much better.

I have a spannish mom and peruvian dad, and from as Young as I can remember my parents already teached how to do it :, but it’s really cool to see these kinda videos 😁. It’s a really nice and sweet way to dance and have fun

“Get off your couch”
Me: How did he know?!

[elskeletor]

I started my first salsa lessons last Thursday and today is going to be my second class so thank you for your video which helps me to practice learning to be a better dancer.

[fernymina]

How many are here because their girlfriend/wife wants to go salsa dancing?

[olgajacks]

Thank you so so much life is extremely busy with kids I don’t have time to go and lean now I can lean at home how wonderful and thoughtful of you to creat this video may God bless you thank you so much again 🙏🙏🙏

[dguard]

I took my first dance class last night, “strictly beginner salsa” - they were teaching these steps - but YOU made it so much easier. I leave Friday for Miami with my GF. I am just going to practice the solo steps tonight. I really want to take her dancing (kind of surprise her a little). At least having SOME knowledge gives me a little more confidence! Thanks!

[semender]

My school is already learning salsa and we just began so I'll tell my teacher all about this video😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

[dylanjohnson]

The way you both move is so entrancing! I can't wait to get there. Thanks for the videos.

Salsa is the most beautiful dance of all the Latin dances. I learnt it years ago, but haven’t done for a long time

I needed some faster-paced dances for a novel I am writing, but didn't know any. This was a perfect guide for what i needed - thank you so much!
