  • Folks! It is for beginners! Don't sweat the little stuff, they are making it slow and big to show what they are doing.

  • I just love ! There's not enough romantic musics (slows, ballads) in clubs. With all my respect : people there, often dance like "cavemen". I'm a 26 year old man. Thank you for this lesson. It's SO sensual !

  • So this is rumba?

  • If you don't like the way of their style of rumba my suggestion is you do it your way and stop complaining,

    chuck'o

  • @waltercito47: Ah correction where I wrote Brazilian rumba I meant Cuban rumba.

  • @poopseysimpson: No this is American style rumba and the count is SQQS. For the International rumba however, the count is 4 1 2 3 4 1 with the 1 as the settle count. The settle count is where you get the hip movement.

  • @waltercito47: Ah gringo it is the American style rumba as oppose to the International or Brazilian style rumba. It's looks like a very basic demonstration of it. BTW Jorge should forget the Latina and find himself a Russian dance teacher and learn the International rumba, it's the best, and the Russians are the best at it.

  • @poopseysimpson

    yes they cannot dance but this is american rumba hence they do it differently

  • beginners village dot com!!!!!!!!!!!

  • The Rumba basic starts on the count of two of the song. Therefore, the count is 2-3-4-1. This couple is beginning the step on one.

  • I'm a 64 yr old gringo from South Florida, and even I know that's not rumba; foxtrot, maybe. Jorge, find yourself a latina! Damn, chico!

  • hát így nem kell rumbát táncolni XD
