www.addicted2s...
This salsa dancing lesson video will teach you how to perform the salsa dance S-turn into a salsa dance 180. We will first explain what a simple salsa S-turn is and then link it to performing a salsa dance cross body lead with turn into a cross body lead 180.

Thank you for these videos! the lessons are great and you make the steps easy to follow.

[@addicted2salsa]

I will. If you see the youtube video for the 180, there is an annotation where I point to a Milton Cobo video where he does a 360. A 360 is a full revolution of the guy around the girl vs the 180 which is just half. At the end of the 360, the lady ends up facing the same direction in which she started.

This is a simple S-Turn to a cross-body lead. Once you get this, other combos that we will teach will become easier: Example, S-turn to CBL 180 while still holding on to hammerlock on the bounce effect to a blind loop over lock. First building out the fundamentals. :-)

Check out episode 97 (just released) on how to connect this to a cross body lead 180 to hammerlock with loop over.

Thanks for the flick tip in the beginning guys. However, Why would we want to lead the girl into a hammerlock (or the S-turn) if we have no intention to pick up the hand later (going straight into the 180)? Isn't it our job to pick up the hand if we put it somewhere, and the followers job to wait for us to get it?

[@MarcusBodyCoding]

fourspiralarms - you are right in most cases - we do as leaders usually use that girl's hand we put behind her back...
However in this particular move - it is a great seamless transition for a 180 - meaning - it is a great transition to get our hand to the girl's back - in order to do the 180...
If you will see this move performed very fast - it will be very smooth - and no one will ask himself or even notice - WHY the guy didn't use that hand.
BTW - when the man touches the back of the girl\s back - it is the signal for the girl to put her arm on his shoulders - which makes this move possible..
I hope that was helpful!
