W . T. F.... PAYASO..

[rummba20]

no entiendo a que se debe tanto espectáculo si el baile trata de diversión y saber interpretar la música, pero veo que este men solo hace cosas sin sentido, no expresa nada con su baile, la nena está en la onda y se ve disminuida por este verdadero PAYASO!!!!!!!!

[GIOJL]

@mamboking138 The problem is these performers can't follow any lead that is interpretative and outside the box of a damn pattern they learned in a classroom. Another words they can't improvise. Unfortunately these other people are too blind to see that she can't follow his lead and he has to actually stop what he's doing to compensate for her inability to follow the lead. It's pathetic that a world champion dancer can't even follow a lead on a social dance floor.

@GIOJL

Stop that right there. They've been dating ( and continue to) for some years now. He's just drunk or high ( on drugs or life)! Interpretive or not, a lead needs to conform to SOME kind of rules, or it ain't "dancing ON2."

[GIOJL]

@t35t3r first off Edwin is from NYC moron and was trained at Starlite dance studio in the Bronx which was owned by the founder of the NY Salsa Congress fyi. As far as conformity goes let me educate you on what dancing On2 is it's not the crap you see from these Overconformed performers who can't eve follow a lead...first and foremost his girlfriend who was having trouble following his lead in because it wasn't structured enough? no because stage dancers are weak social dancers no matter ...

[GIOJL]

@t35t3r ...how hot they may look they don't know the first thing about how to conform to a lead and the improvisation that goes hand in hand with a social dance. I have danced with Edwin and can tell you from personal experience that he is a very good leader and he is also a creative lead which unfortunately you overly schooled dancers can't handle.

[GIOJL]

@t35t3r Also dancing On2 is associated with and is considered the ny style therefore if you haven't lived it breathed it first hand in the city that never sleeps you should shut your uneducated trap because you don't have the first clue wtf your talking about.

[t35t3r]

@GIOJL No, first off, I AM from NYC, born and raised. Starlite is an amazing school but it isn't the end all be all of On2! Edwin is being a clown! He is Off and on I hear. I have danced with Emily before, multiple times and she is a sweetheart and follows amazingly and guess what?? Im not a performer and I can promise you that I don't dance like typical performers. The way you're defending Edwin.... hmmm, have you had a piece of Edwin before or something? Or just wanted a piece? Which is it?

[GIOJL]

@t35t3r I think it's obviously the other way around. I think you are overcome with Emily's beauty and aren't seeing what is really going on. This is not the first time I've seen her miss cues in the lead and I'm sure it won't be the last. The point is is that Edwin is a character type dancer; he may not be as refined and may even be a little tipsy here but at the end of the day she's not able to follow the lead because she is over spinning and not in tune with her partner.

[GIOJL]

@t35t3r I'm ROFL watching this because I can tell that he literally has to stop for her because she's not following the lead and it has nothing to do with him not giving the signals she's just not able to follow the cue unless it's baby fed. She's a gorgeous girl and looks nice on the stage but we see the same thing all the time, many stage dancers over trained in the studio can't follow a basic lead on the dance floor if it's not in there set familiar group of patterns.

[SalsaKW]

Emily's spinning on 1.18 is simply wonderful to see. She is such an elegant dancer.

[No2titanio]

Sinceramente opino igual que ilovesalsadura, mucha lavadora para ese trapito

[No2titanio]

Sinceramente opino lo mismo que ilovesalsadura, mucha lavadora para poca ropa.

[Grayhat21]

Emliy bailas super bien igual q tu hermano pero ese loco de Edwin es un payaso de salsa y lo unico que hace es el ridiculo

[EJElPapi]

Dayum!!! this guy reminds me of RESORTES!!!! LMFAO

[bulletguum]

Ke feo sociall.. Emily como siempre una princesa.. pero Edwin :s ni ke decir feiiiisimo estilo

[spirit123456]

Emily is a beautiful dancer but unfortunately Edwin failed to show her off the way he should have. That's how you can judge a man as a dancer! Remember the man is the frame, but the lady has to be the picture.

[angelusrex]

lo tengo que decir con todo respeto que se merece como persona...

que pena que haya en el mundo gente que busca una oportunidad y que se conformarian solo con bailar con emily..

y este tipo la hace pasar verguenzas haciendoce el payaso cambiandose de tiempo a cada rato, bueno por eso se fue a chile a venderla a un programa de television..

aprovecha viejo tu minuto de fama la verdad si es por esto no me dan ganas de seguir evolucionando

amen

[nineinchsalsero]

Edwin is a horrible salsa dancer

[DCSalsaOn1]

Edwin tries way too hard to be a star. To over the top with it. His dancing is mediocre for a congress level instructor.

[robersus]

[saraht7905]

Trucutu - not sure who this artist is because this version is different from Tommy Olivencia's version.

[JazzyJez]

I think this is the Soneros Del Barrio or Descarga Boricua's Version.
