Learn to Dance Salsa : Beginner Turns and Moves

[kaskraker]

Salsa looks sexy

[grisolivan]

What a bunch of morons!! This video is in English most likely because you typed "salsa lessons" and he is not mentioning "4" or "8" steps because he already said it on his first lesson. If you think you know better than this guy, why don't you upload your own video? And teach it your way, not forgetting your "4" and "8" mi helmano!!!

[Giuliocilona]

what's this music ?

[on0er0il0he0el]

excellent video. Clear and "slow motion". I know how to dance salsa, just needed a refresher after not dancing for a few years. It was perfect!

[aznbspikey]

4  is in there , its called a REST ! Lol .

[JRodriguez609]

4:13 dat ass!

[JRodriguez609]

if the lady is taller than you tell her to squat or send her to the kitchen

[poncekid56]

Blah I personally think lessons are a bunch of bullocks. I learned how to dance by just dancing with the family, no counting no choreographed steps. You feel the music

[sk8rdavy900]

@poncekid56 then why would you go to this video?

[ceeekooo]

no mames si es salsa ponlo en espanol

[brooklynhottii]

aww anthony is cute wit his glasses <3

[MonsterSpartan]

I feel the passion of salsa coursing through my veins.. Aaaareebah!!

[sokete1092837465]

hehe hehe 4:13 nice butt :)

[herthverth01]

Wats the name of this song? Its juicy!

[Zenon66]

At least now I can count till seven !!!

[traitohr]

@Zenon66 I'm pretty sure you've forgotten the 4. :)

[macthman]

[giramew]

I seriously need to learn all this moves before we start with salsa on my school in november

[NewWorldRob]

[TheDlivingstone]

[dev007luv9]

[Solracian]

I wouldn't dare try to attempt this in heels.

[estorvitoo]

Excellent!

[Tishi2009]

I love how they break it down, i am a young Latina (12) (mixed with hondurian0 and i have to go to a quincenera which is something my familia have in cuba when youre becomig a teenager and my abuela was teaching me yesterday and she said that i was very good at that i didnt need any trianing what so ever cuz i really feel the music

[TheJanahaddad]

ohhh i just got it 4 is the neutral position its 1 2 3 (4) then go back 5 

[Kay2be2M]

why do I suck at this sooo much?? I'm Latina for goodness sake, going to a wedding in a few hours and it'll be nothing but latin music.

[ManArchful]

this helps



[Conee67]

Esa melodia se llama EL NEGRO BEMBON de Ismael Rivera

[ilovesoda1001]

Lets make this clear... In salsa the beat is one, two, three.... Five, six, seven.... The 4 is silent, it's silent because on the silent count your switching your foot to start the next 3 counts... If you keep saying I can't do it or it's a bad video cuz here is no 4, then go to a personal dance class and they will tell you the same! At least learn the count first BEFORE you say stuff!! :P

[AfroMalaya]

@ilovesoda1001 Not really.. only noobs and beginners count like that. Real salsa dance in-clave or on tumbao. And it IS NOT 123-567. THe 4 and 8 is stronger for the advance dancers.

[Crawkid]

@ilovesoda1001

thank you. very informative.

I was wondering what the heck was going on.

[NLChintana]

omg thanks fir your vids ,now i can lean it's when i'm home

[Priceless2124]

very good video and easy to understand

[NachoMbello]

como se llama la cancion???



[princessSarah1988]

I've checked out lots of videos now so I can catch on some salsa moves and this video is actually very clear, not too fast and well explained. Good job!

[s8f360]

you guys are pro!!!! bad ass!!!

[machoev12]

i thought tht men are supposed to start on there left foot going back???

[castillopatino90]

ANTONIO. It's Antonio!

[MrLilo12345678]

1)close eyes 2)think how much money u want 3)post on 10 vids 4)look under pillow REALLY WORKS!!

[kerron68]

i can't do this... my rhythm is off - there's no 4

[HeatherHours]

WHA... WHA... WHAT ABOUT 4??????!!!!!! :'(

[theWWMYC]

@HeatherHours The fourth 'count' is a point where nothing will happen in this.1-3 move, 4: stop, 5-8 move.

[natalie23091989]

@HeatherHours It's the pause!! Same as 8!

[alhcitkane]

@HeatherHours Thats a rest

[mundget]

@HeatherHours try saying 4 5 6 its difficult to follow steps including 4

[sherrybfsu]

@HeatherHours 4 is stop ; 1 2 3 stop 5 6 7

[garoukike]

@HeatherHours lol xD

[lidwyer]

@HeatherHours 4 is the pause.

[dasxcminnie]

@HeatherHours lol, number 4 is a stop after 3 so you pause

[ilisten2musicc]

@HeatherHours 4 and 8 are pauses...

[tiburon760]

These videos are very good, I'm learning to dance just from watching the videos. Thanks a lot!!!

[mscutieruki]

she's making her hair after every move. is that also the part of the dance?? o_O

[bloodlinerecords2]

my favourite part is 4:10

[fmsmurf]

I agree nice behind

[LilVador]

Thanks for Uploading this.

[sanemclovin]

[INeverMeantToBrag1]

@Diogo2065

WHY DO YOU FEEL THE NEED TO TYPE IN ALL CAPS?

[Gdi9393]

..just follow the rhythm,let the music take control..or Something:-)

[CHAMPING2]

Thanksyou guys for this video it really help me a lot keep making more.....:)

[SmplyInocent]

THis is really great!

[Diogo2065]

FIRST OF ALL , THANK YOU GUYS FOR TEACHING US. I DON'T KNOW BUT FOR SOME REAZON I HAVE TROUBLE KEEPING UP WITH THE COUNT. SEE IN THE CLASS WE DO A WORM UP EXERCISE BEFORE STARTNG TO DANCE, BUT FOR SOME REAZON I ALWAYS LOST THE COUNT. I HAVE TO BE HONEST WITH YOU GUYS, THE ONLY REAZON THAT I DECIDED TO TAKE THE SALSA CLASS WAS TO MEET HOT BEUTIFUL GIRLS. UNFORTUNATELY, IT HASN'T WORKED TILL THIS POINT. SO BY THIS POINT, I DON'T CARE ABOUT LEARNING. AS LONG AS I PASSED THE CLASS WILL BE OKAY.

[yojimbo400]

@Diogo2065 Yeah, I know. Like I met a girl at salsa class. Then the class began and I was terrible, you know. So next time, I talk to her again and she says "whor u?" I say Dino, and she says "Dino who?"

[amorsotee12]

u guys are awesome!!!

[jupileric]

It's really too complicated... You always have to think about the steps, it's not natural at all to dance salsa!

[Spanky00Cheeks]

@jupileric

aaaaww, the opinionated peanut gallery...

[NeferDina]

awesome :)

[bostonboy75]

I did this with my girl even though we can dance somewhat and we kept messing it up being that we don't have the step down but we got it eventually

[EliezerCheGonzalez]

my wife and I both dance salsa (we're Puerto Rican) but we have slightly different styles. Great Video. It helps put is in sync with each other.

[lcm1691]

Did Melanie just say her name was Me-lah-nie?

[JemPear]

@lcm1691 Ya know, things are pronounced differently in other languages.

[cupcup81]

[jkracing]

3. get a girlfriend

[mrclean2022]

@Brightwhiteback

At first when I read your response to nonorafi6, I was thinking you were being a bit of prick for correcting his English. Obviously millions of non English speakers use youtube, but then I saw that he's from United States... so nevermind xD

[koldusopera]

@nonorafi6 oh you guys...

[dndrequiem]

@nonorafi6 Oh my.

[videosloger]

@nonorafi6

[verosasha1975]

I would love for Melani to show us her styling moves step by step

[harry1164]

Es facil bailar con alguien q conoces, q te sigue, si puedes hacer q alguien q recien conoces se mueva asi, sería genial...

[emell1282]

loving it...

[dashana0880]

excellemt



[carlitosx21]

ajajajajaj guyss thats not the turns thats not salsa turns he is totally wrong did he invented that turnsss? cuz i i have never seen that turns before 4real

[nahm80]

@carlitosx21 Lol U seem like a guy who just follows others. Dancing is a type of Art therefore u create and dat means yea u invent turns unless u want to b like evry one else.

[GuilleBiochemist]

@carlitosx21

Then, you have two options:

1) Make your own video whereby you show us how to turn properly, therefore illuminating us.

2) ZIP IT.

[empire562]

you should have slow motion ...that would help alot.

[baylorbear2010]

thank you so much for these!

[KillaJ4L]

omg i have to learn this in less the a couple months... well relearn actually lol

[funlovingcriminal777]

cool!!!

[akuto13]

what title of this song??

[faguilin]

@akuto13 The title is "el negro bembon" by Ismael Rivera

[donkieote]

what happened to number four??....

[erichwtl]

The step count is 1..2..3.."pause"..5..6..7.."pa­use"... then repeat..1..2..3..etc.

4 and 8 are used as a pause in the step transition and are not called out.

1..2..3.. are always used as a forward stride or initiation of a turn,,,

5..6..7.. are used in the reverse of the forward stride or to complete a single turn.

[kiranuket]

you are best teacher and you told all steps in very simple manner. thanks a lot.........

[ahmedacib]
