HI everyone, as some of you might have found out it is not dancing on 2, it is normal dancing on 1 , but he switched 5 and 1 for the sake of catching breaks which comes at 5 at this particular song. As he wants to show this particular figure (COB + man 1/2 turn) and break is on five, he can't do it with normal dancing on 1. And yes I agree, he could have chosen any other figure, that can end on five and normally dance on 1. (not reccomended for social dancing)
ohh and @ferznator... 5 is not still 1... 5 is 5 when dancing, not 1... big difference, do yourself a favor friend and go ask a dancer k? Much love! xoxo
He's not off time, just breaking forward on the 5 as opposed to the 1. Doing it that way just sets up to hit certain breaks in the music. Ballroom pros do that a lot when they do cha cha because it sets them up to hit the first major break on 1. Calling it "on5" though? That's a little much.
He's hitting the beat, stressing the 1 and 5 as in on1, but going in reverse, as you would in on2 (but obviously you would stress the 2 and 6). Sometimes you miss a break and end up like this but he has no excuse - at 0:06 he has a lovely long pause to correct and he doesn't. Bit embarassing to call this video musicality.and I have never heard of teaching on5. Shame too as the track has a nice tumbao slap on 2 that he totally ignores. All seem to be having fun though and that's the main thing!

@durabunny I agree in reverse I love the song too, a note on musicality is that any dancer will have a different feeling and will dance different, he proposed this pattern for the class which i think its not that bad, remember its for social dancing, you may wanna do something different in a routine or get a coach i mean i would get a coach i mean for me haha
so sad people with post bellow have no idea about music, ask a musician, the counts for the music is 1234 all over the 5 is still 1 in the 2nd bar, he is on the beat do your research, god bless
@ferznator maybe you should do your research... he IS on the beat, just NOT the right one... you're not a dancer are you? So sad that people who don't have a clue about dancing, comment on what they don't know... good day :)
@landyaam i'd like to reply but with respect cuz i don't know you and you don't know me, and why not is the right beat and he competes in the on1 division, he may not be dancing on your right beat, i do have a clue on dancing and music, and i did my homework lol, i am having a good day hope you too ;)
@ferznator ... it doesn't seem you understand what I'm trying to say, he is on beat, but not the right timing... If you do have a clue about dancing you should know that... and it's not MY beat, accepted timing are on1 and on2, there's no on5, that doesn't exist... There's also salsa caleña, but that's something different... Maybe he's trying to create a new timing style, which by the way is awful... :-/... good day here :)
@landyaam again the quote about if i have a clue, a few questions for you who claim 'have a clue' you said accepted are on1 and on2, accepted by who? when there's no standards, there is 2 ways to dance on2 so why can't he do that? maybe you should study music and do some research, he still breaks on1, the music measure is 4/4, first measure they break on1 2nd measure again on1, is it awful? that's only your opinion, since you are not a qualified judge its your opinion its only and opinion friend
@ferznator ... LOL! It is awful, real dancers would agree...you still don't get it... sad...there are two ways of dancing on 2, New York style and PuertoRican style, but they're not dancing on either one... in NY style followers will break forward with the left foot on the 2 and leaders will break forward on the 6... In PR style the leader breaks forward on 2 instead of the follower...
@ferznator ... I don't need to study music nor do research because I know what I'm talking about... I never said he didn't break on one, he does... but his timing is off... don't you know the difference?? Guess not, read the rest of the comments from other people, they are saying the same thing as I... Because they know what they are talking about.. Got it?? Good!!!!!! lol
Con todo respeto creo que no sabes bien cómo se baila on2... la mujer debe dar el paso al frente en 2, mientras que el hombre debe darlo hacia atrás en 2...eso en New York style... y aunque estuvieran bailando on2 puertorican style esto no tiene nada que ver...
