Magna is a great dancer indeed. If anyone watches the vid with Shaka, he knows.
However in any video I ve seen Otero, he always seems really clumsy, no body-movement and with a terrible footwork. He looks funny. Not a dancer at all.
Con respeto de todos aquellos a quien les gusta la salsa... Reconosco q' ellos dos son muy buenos pero si en efecto a Ismael le falta un poco mas de musicalidad y disfrutar el baile. En gustos personales se rompen generos pero Oliver Pineda y Nery de Xtricktly los rumberos disfrutan de lo bello de la salsa... Conocen su cuerpo y lo adaptan a la musica independientemente de la cancion q' bailen... Thats musicality y hacia aya se evoluciona la salsa.
se ve que bailan muy bien y vi varios videos de ellos, pero no son lo mejor!! he visto muchisimo mejores en donde vivo ( ft. lauderdale, FL). yo no soy el mas indicado para criticar pues yo amo la salsa colombiana pero creo que a el le falta ser mas smooth!
agreed...man has moves...tons of em ..but his style in terms of his own movements are stiff...he should be having fun ...moving his shoulders and just enjoying the music..he seems to focus on the complex moves he has..which are nice but means nothing if you cant have fun with it
i don't understand those who say he doesn't feel the music. the shirt thing at 20 seconds, the dip at 55, all the stuff from 1:50 to 2:20 is hilarious. he hits all the breaks with the coolest stuff. he's definitely different - so he's not as chest oriented as most salsa dancers, he does some overly 'tech' moves for my tastes, but he's great. i like the videos of ismael and shani talmor
Yeah, sorry Sweavo, but Ismael doesn't have sabor. He's at his most alive when he's shining... and that isn't that great. I want to see that level of sabor throughout his normal dancing, and bucket loads when shining.
Magna looks good. As always. But I must agree that in this clip she looks very reserved, and could show more cuban motion.
lol for those of you talking about magna, where are yalls videos?? lol Magna is the best salsa dancer in the scene... Id like to see any other dancer spin as good and fast as her... it's no wonder shes the only to make a "spins" dvd. And for the people telling her to shake her ass, what does that have to do with salsa? you can do it if you want, but yall make it sound as if its necessary.
lol when yall post some videos of yall dancing, then yall can talk.
I agree with night creaper. Judge all you want, Magna and Ismael are very respected salsa dancers. These dancers allow themselves to seen on the internet. Unless, you got something to SHOW, your opinion doesn't hold alot of weight.
Quality!! I love the connection, the mixing of tempo/pace, the musical interpretation. THIS (your style...and others) is what I want to be able to feel comfortable dancing and you've both ignited yet another salsa spark in me. Thank you so much!! Can't wait for the next class and club night now :)
Come on folks be broadminded AND open minded. Magna is doing a great job, infact she is a great dancer from what I see here. Give her the credit and feel free.
This is not real dancing. Shut off the music and they will keep moving the same. Counting steps!!! Put some Cubans, Puertoricans, Or Dominicans and we will show you whats up. That that turning, they dont feel SHIT!
jajaja. Tu le apagas la musica a una cubana y se quedaria muviendo el culo de solar de un lado pa otro de la misma forma que lo ha estado moviendo por los 4 minutos que ha durado la cancion. Negro please tu deverdad vas a comparar a magna con una cubana de la calle. Brother pon a magna a bailar con un cubano casinero y te aseguro que lo sigue, pon a cualquier cubana, boricua, o dominicana a bailar con un tipo al nivel de magan y se caga toda, se le parten los tacones.
and by the way papo they're dancing mambo. Can you do it. Lo dudo. Que tu bailas? Casino pisoteao con sabor?? Tu eres de esos que matan cucarachas?? O eres uno de los pocos???
personally, i'm not super stoked on his "style", as in I wouldn't dance that way, but I love the fact that people are crazy different, and he does his own thing. and obviously she likes it too.
Magna-licious!

I agree way too may haters, who have to idea who they are talking about and have never seen either of them in person.
1) you can't judge by one song
2) ismael is highly technical and is known for his hand work and his musicality, both of which are on display here
3) magna is fantastic and is just crisp with all her moves. video definitely doesn't do either of them justice
I'll agree this video and this dance isn't their best, but you guys need to relax. much respect to both of them

PeruviaNs Dance too!
What's wrong?Did someone get denied a dance?
She's made to be 'CLASSY,' it suits her! NOT from the Caribbean;making her even better.
Counting is part of DANCING and MAKING music-or else there would be NO Salsa.
Not cute to believing you're great salsa dancer when you're not even DANCING or MAKING love with the SALSA.
(Hint: caps lock on 'Dancing & Making')
Anyway...
Magna-you're in my top 3 dancers-I EFFIN LuV U-U ROCK!
