Salsa Dancing Club Style Moves

In this episode of street style salsa dance video we show you how to perform a basic blind cross-body lead with a loop-over lock salsa dance move. While the move may look easy at first, it is the timing and the proper leading where some may have difficulties. Also, we will take it and chain it together with going from a cross-body hammer-lock to a reverse loop-over. I consider this a more intermediate dance pattern because you have to be very careful on how you lead this move. These moves done incorrectly can hurt the girl in VERY bad ways. Julie Merrill also adds a few key styling points for the ladies.

white people cant dance salsa.. sorry

[apersaud]

@RANitAx15 I'm not white. I Puerto Rican. ;-)

I just want to know what happened to 4. It's always 1 2 3 5 6 7. I think 4 is feeling left out.

[apersaud]

The counts 4 and 8 are pauses in the dance rhythm in salsa (no steps are taken during that time). This is standard when teaching salsa dancing.

I don't personally like to be distracted while trying to learn something new, and I just bet there are many others that would feel the same way.

Also, if you think you may have missed something important in the video due to the notes, you can use the YouTube slider to rewind to the missed starting point. You can also pause the video when you want to take time reading the notes.

Lastly - Addicted2Salsa videos should not replace real classes. Use them as reference videos for moves. :-)

Yeah I agree, the instruction on these videos really show Anthony's progressive growth as both a dancer and instructor. Thanks a lot for sharing Anthony and Julie. You guys are the bomb.

[letuslook]

The comments are part of the charm. Don't change a thing, Anthony. There'll always be some people who can't be pleased.

@hirom007x I think the song is La Lucha by Mamborama

[angelfloresr]

@apersaud Antony, no te preocupes por ese comentario, sin lugar a dudas, eres uno de los instructores mas precisos que he visto en internet (mucha gente sabe bailar, poca gente sabe enseñar) Felicidades por tu trabajo y te envío un saludo desde Sinaloa, México

[Tumealicious21]

[spydamonque7]

I love the blooper @the end XD all in all, awesome work !

[Roper9O]

@RANitAx15 That's a really silly and ignorant statement. Wow..

[maryamtaheri]

this isnt the kind of video one would dislike , 10 people went out of their own way to find this video just to dislike it LOL

[sonicboomdan11]

If the woman would stop making those ballroom style gestures with her arm, this might work. No one in the clubs or at a family party will be doing that. All I'm saying is that the style doesn't match up with the "street salsa" you're trying to teach.

[jagglestein]

All of your videos are excellent. With your help, my salsa partner and I are practicing on our own in our free time and are very excited about the new moves!

[dmrayme]

@apersaud yeah i'm puerto rican / irish / american... one day we'll all be tan! and people will figure out everyone has their own styles and the more you dance the better you get!

[RANitAx15]
