The DPS Lock Salsa Dance Combo

[doowopshopgal]

Great videos, and I have a question, when the girl dances she takes a couple of extra steps on the counts, it looks awesome, is that a shine and will she show us her foot steps please!!!!

[caballero4321]

Thony, I see you are a great salsa teacher, I got an issue and you might recomend me something, I have been practising salsa for lets say two years, It is just very hard for me to remember combinations, if I write them down i do not think it will help... What is best?

[eramosramirez90]

whats the name of the song

[left2odds]

Do you have any other combinations using the DPS lock? I've been trying this lock for some time now prior to this video, but I don't have the imagination to invent an alternate combination. Greetings from Curacao.

[violinplayer101]

wow, they are really good at dancing! My dance instructor was teaching us this in class, and it's definitely a lot harder than it already looks!!

[jagermeisterNY]

so bored... feel the salsa tonto

[espin2006]

u need to feel da music... dis is just a bunch of turns... u look bored and like u cant be botherd to dance... RUBBBIIIISH

[kensheebattousai]

1-2-3... 5-6-7!! LOL

[Deivicho]

since when you can do a Combo in salsa ?

[Gooshnads]

So uh dude.. what pet do you summon while you're doing the dance?

I personally like having my fel hunter out.

[odiugma]

The Damage Per Second Warlock Salsa Dance Combo?

[tullkass14]

DPS= Damage Per Second.

Lock= Warlock

DoT= Damage Over Time

Dps Lock Combo = Curse of Agony, Immolate, Corruption. No Warcraft stuff here T-T

[XenophobicAirport]

So this ISN'T World of Warcraft related?

[DerHerrSal]

@XenophobicAirport

if it is DPS thems to be low^^

[ExclusiveGslick]

That camel toe is awesome.

[jensbaggesensvej]

this is great I got to learn this!!!!

[bebetigre12]

She drops her form many times, she should work on her hands.

[grecci]

Great move. Gotta love it!! Thanks guys.

[mrcav]

Good lesson, should show feet from last angles.

[2hot2gether]

nada de ritmo en los pies eson son ;la piga

[mnateras5]

Anthony, I prefer this older version of your videos they have more detailed explanation than the new ones, why is that? Overrall Great Work it really does deserve a donation

[evytulip28]

teach me 2

[MrUrielsoto18]

my gf thinks that you guys should come to louisville tonight to see how it is done.

270763797885478574 thats our number please call her soon so that you guys know what yall are up against

[shinemen]

this move is sooooo hard

[Nitra813]

i love your instructional videos, they are so helpful to me. i pick up really fast as well, keep the moves coming

[marcnaj]

Melanie eres bellisima,, sexy ,, besosss,, Melanie, you are soo beaty, sexy ,, kisses my loveee

[artsanch2002]

I like the way the moves are shown and the beats are counted. These videos are good and it saving you from having to pay for lessons. I like it.

[Goldelbe]

@diakosss its not the first video, you have to see the other videos first of course lol

[moneymail002]

This is also the way instructors teach in dance classes. When you're just beginning to learn, they teach you the basics one small piece at a time. Then you're expected to know how to combine these basic elements so they teach you more advanced ones by telling you which basic elements to combine and demonstrating the intended result. If they explained everything bit by bit it would take forever to learn anything worthwhile.

So if this is hard to you, go over the basics first and master them.

[edjrarre]

man i try to get the moves down but i always mess up.

[moneymail002]

Yeah it always takes a while, especially if you wanna be able to pull off a new move at a club and not just with a training partner. It takes me maybe 15 min. or so to learn something like this with a training partner, but I'd probably need hours before I had the confidence to try and pull it off while dancing socially and not just for practice.

[27dalin]

The artist is Ismael Rivera and the title is "El Negro Bembon".

[Qiamex]

Oh, I just heard it in a video of King Bongo. There it is called 'Pura Salsa'

[cevansPhotographer]

Excellent Video tutorials.

Does any one know the title of the track and artist at the beginning of this clip??

thanks

[lllllangejan]

[animalboy099]

[kafdita]

El Negro Bembón de Cortijo y su combo.

[labulldog5]

pure creepy at 2:57

[apersaud]

Yes, it was because it was take number 7. (lucky number seven). And if we got it right, we'd all go out for shots. :-)

[casiepatterson]

[iceluis2]

[ShotgunKeIly]

[cliffienatorie]

[krucus]

[balieandnickjonas]

ouch i was tring in high heels and hurt my ankle

[tinku1214]

This step should be called PUZZEL STEP.

just kidding.

Nice teaching guys

[dogo1961]

I really like your way of teaching! I watch all your moves with great interest (all the way from Holland). Keep up the good work!

[gchemedi]

The Double Lock is an amazing move, thanks Anthony! The good thing is it can applied in other dances like rumba, cha-cha, mambo, even merengue.

[crazzygoat]

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh im gonna end up watchin this 100 times gonna go make me a sndwhich

[Jenniemorgan7]

I finally figured out what bothers me about this video.. they don't even look at each other! Salsa is supposed to be a very sensual dance yet these two barely make eye contract!!!

Other than that, good instructional video..

[apersaud]

We focus on the instruction (teaching) in this video, there are many videos that already do that. For social dancing videos, you can search for them on our channel as well.

[raysalsa1]

Ive watched a number of these videos. I think their well done. I have a number instructional videos from international instructors and these explain the breakdown just as well in some cases. anthony did u learn alot from attending salsa congresses or other workshops? Give me an address an ill send u some great salsa music with great musicality to dance to from the fania records era. some rarer stuff ill send as a thnx for offering these videos for free to budding salseros. what artists d u like?

[savagecat77]

@Jenniemorgan7 u are right.on the othe hand,he made this video lesson long time ago.nowadays, he improved and changed the partner.

[jorgeig82]

i would like to know whats the song at the beginning, thanks

[benjybone]

mataron al negro bembon or negro bembon is the same song

[Wiseguyintraining]

What is the name of the song in the beginning?

[ltigre2031]

thanx anthony its a nice pattern and eas yto learn as broken down by u and melanie

[gganeshn]

everything is nice, i mean, the moves 1-3 and then 5-7.. but one question.. What happened to the 4 ?

[apersaud]

The 4 and 8 are considered pauses in the music.

[1600pp]

hahha learn to dance bitchess

[fejibfewj]

i can't believe there are retards like you walking around on the planet with nobody to guide them

[windmillhills]

Hey, a close up of "Mowani" in this video - I hadn't realised how hot she is! Are you a couple?

[Rockxxx82]

Mataron al negro bembon jajajajaa

[SistemaKaoso]

That angle at 3:00 was weird and caught me off guard. Nice moves here though and complicated too.

[k7pzw9]

nice i love salsa viva latin america

[sindrella1988]

thanks for this video

[moonfeet]

this guy can twirl a lot....but his dancing has no Latin style...no hips and very wooden.

[last1boyscout]

thanks for great salsa lessons...:)

[druzzz]

Melanie makes any move look amazing. She moves so well with so much style. and she is beautiful!

[falloutmcrmygirl25]

is awesome!!!

[ebutube45]

That was soo cool, I really want to train hard and be good like you

[Jano450]

I just wanna say thanks bro! You do a very good job, your moves are cool and everything so keep up the good job!

[marrie365]

I found you the BEST instructor for salsa on Youtube. VERY CLEAR AND SMOOTH STEPS

[apersaud]

Thanks! Spread the word so others can learn! :-)

[robocopqaz]

The girlfriend tripped on one of these videos and was amazed... You're really good!

Made me try it for a laugh. Now she has no choice... She HAS to do it all the time!!

Thanks for the inspiration.

[pjazwier]

Anthony,

Just wanted to let you know that I enjoy your lessons imensly and have watched them countless times and come back to them over and over after trying them on the dance floor. You are a very talented teacher, you should get some instructional cds put together!

[mathewedison]

How come you're counting 1-3 then 5-7 I'm used to counting 1-8.

[shasan]

that's how you count in salsa.. the 4th and 8th beats are pauses. You can count 8 if you want, doesn't make a diff.

[roolrr22]

whats the song

[ElburroE]

you guys are great. please keep it up!

[FernandezD90]

Haha yeah, i bet you wouldnt try this unless its with someone that already knows what youre gonna do... unless you wanna break her arm xD

[shasan]

I've found there's some level of choreography in Salsa of course.. if you're leading a beginner, they probably will get lost in this move unless you're really really good at leading... but that's why you do combos/moves that match the beginners level... you won't do double/triple turns for a follower who has taken 3 classes in total...

[gharlston11]

FernandezD90, when I first started using this move, I could do it only with the more advanced dancers. However, now that I've got it down and am really comfortable with it, I can lead almost any follower thru it. Of course, I still get a feel for whether the follower can do an inside turn easily or not, then I go from there. This is definitely a move that will get oohs and aahs from the followers, especially if you can lead them thru it for the first time!

[romania4uluv]

i adore salsa! salsa is not just a dance it's a lifestyle.....beware very addictive!you're nice to give free lessons....:)respect

[haberquehay]

Everything is just OK, but Anthony dont you have money to dress better and use dance shoes not tank shoes

[apersaud]

hahaha. We do this for free! I wish we received donations to help my attire. ;-)

[54spiritedwill54]

Very good routine, congratulation's! thanks for all figures

[tridentlin]

pretty good teaching and excellent combination of armlock, but one small problem in second demo, that man forgot to turn back to girl. It is just a small teach error, but not a step error.

[fergues1]

hey muchachos muchas gracias por las lecciones estan geniales

[rmsanche]

wait, did i read that right? you got arrested for carrying a door down the street? lol if that's true, since when is a door not an important piece of public safety?! I use my door all the time for public safety! Anthony and Melanie, you guys rock! thanks for the free lessons.

[apersaud]

Yeah... it was my crazy college days. :-)

[edliao79]

como se llama la cancion ? gracias

[FernandoCruzalegui]

El negro bembon. Tiene varios interpretes. En este caso no se quien canta pero la puedes encontrar por Ismael Rivera: MAELO. ;)

[jeffa0123]

look at all these wow geeks(one myself lol) well still latino and love salsa hey man with ur videos ive learned mad moves broy ,,, ive noticed there arent many new videos wasup u guys stoped? well any ways as a teacher u rock used all these moves at coco bongo thank you

[elgoonties]

Lawl. I clicked this thinking it was Warcraft related, but it aint... I still watched it oddly enough.

[dochmbi]

Lol, dps and lock are both terms from World of Warcraft.

DPS stands for damage per second and lock is short for Warlock

[thioester]

in this case the lock would refer to 'arm lock'!

[FernandoCruzalegui]

Hi Melanie and Anthony. You ARE great. I admire you two very much. I just can't copy his style, need to practice more and more. She is beautiful and good dancer, very sensual. What about her, is she alright? Send my greetings brother, from this Peruvian dancer.

[Japanseb]

Using dps and lock in the title, it is hilarious I found this clip. xD Note: If you don't play 'World of Warcraft' forget everything I just said. =P

[josedavilar]

Cual es la cancion que bailan, alguien sabe le nombre?

[andino17]

El negro bembon

[josedavilar]

gracias ..sabes la orquesta que la toca?

[drrumbero]

You guys are great do you give lessons?

[jfisamm]

Very good routine, congratulation's!

Can you show some patterns on 360 turn for the guy?

It will greatly be appreciated

jj

[darky3000]

That routine is only for the woman!!!

[peloklumper]

Think you are missing the point. The whole idea is to make the woman look good. Any you thought it was about you. Sad.

[aliaskashao]

agree my man

as a watcher productive critic, ( something like that I speak spanish ) i would say he needs better posture and slower salsa
