Great video. All dance should be taught this way. Keep them coming.

Why did this speak to me like no other video or instructor💚

[nicolasc.]

I dance on2 palladium (or power2) style. I remember festivals where this style (Eddie Torres) was taught. I was a lot confused but it is great to know regardless 😊

Hmm.... why are your first step and second set, the same distance? I've always been taught its "half, full, traveling to half past, full, traveling to half past, full step" rinse repeat etc. Instead you seem to be doing full step, full step, full step, full-step, full-step, full-step, full-step.

In theory, step 1 I think ought to be the middle of your foot is "on the line" and step 2 is like on the next-line (or a full foot length forward from the previous step).

Additionally, pressing hard into the floor, then rolling your feet from the outside to the inside then back and down onto the floor.

I got the basics but how about a few turn for leaders and followers with this same count and tape on the floor. This is very helpful for some of is. I keep falling back on one when I do different combos my body just wants to hit those accents and not the conga beat.

Is this what's called "salsa on2 NY style"?
I learned salsa basic steps today but it was quite hard to find the same looking steps on YouTube.
I'm curious since I found the steps I learned and steps you're showing look very similar. 🙂

Hello this is what my studio teaches--- on 2 ny style. I've only been going since december. My biggest issue is actually listening to the music. I don't know how to listen to the beat

[DaquonL]

what did you use to make the grid on the ground?

[tyechifitness]

To the music in this video so i can practice.

[Tonito-hngj]

So salsa 2 on is just taking 3 steps back and forth?

[tyechifitness]

I will try in my class today thx.
Are you in NY??

[Floorguy]

Nice video. However, I would say that the overwhelming number of salsa dancers, professional and recreational, will make the 1 and 5 steps shorter than the 2 and 6 steps....they are not all the same length.
