Your channel is definitely one of the best (or the best 😉) at teaching dance! This vid really answer all my queries. I feel that footwork is the easy part, but what a lot of people foget is the foot placement part, followed by the body(hip/knee/shoulder) action. So thank you sooooo much for all these details. Really appreciate it ♥ Also, I do love the way both of you talk as it gives more energy to the vids and I won't zone out along the wayXD
hi Annie! so happy to help! thanks, Tytus
Hi Tytus, we should be the one thanking both of you for sharing your dance with us! I want to dance so badly every time after watching You and Liwen's passionate tutorials 💪
annie lee We're excited to share our ❤️ for dancing with all of you. Thanks for supporting our channel and sharing your awesome energy with us. 😉🙌🏼
awesome! love to inspire passionate dancing, go Annie! ❤️❤️❤️ Tytus
OK!!!
Наталья Панина OK back! :)
YEEAAHHH!
DANG! That's the best breakdown ever.
oh cool! thank u Hiroshi!
Great! Thanks @Hiroshi. 😊
Good toe and foot pressure pressure demonstrated when required by LiWen giving her cha cha a very professional appearance.
Peter Beyer thank you! Good attention to detail. 👍🏼😊
awesome, thanks Peter!
You guys are really helpful, and your pacing is just right. The breakdown of the steps with the weight and the foot placements etc is exactly the kind of detail dancers need.
Awesome!!! @weddie24 what dance styles are you doing? 😊
American smooth and Latin. We do East Coast swing not jive and also Hustle, West Coast swing and nightclub slow. We've never done Paso!
@weddie24 Nice! Gonna try out the Paso?
hey thanks a lot!
I love the foot taps at the end. This could become an addictive habit!
thanks Barney! yeah, it definitely is, lol!
Hey Barney! They really are.. and they're fun and flashy too. Good combination! 😉 What are you working on in your Cha Cha these days?
Been working on that swivel thing you showed us a few weeks' ago😊 One thing I'm trying to improve is quick opening out for side-by-side cuban and split cubans...so any tips on getting a fast swivel would be amazing.
Barney Phillips Nice!! Quick tip for the split Cubans, keep your spine anchored over the swiveling foot. Less distance to travel = more energy for speed. Let us know how goes it. 😊👍🏼
Thank you so much for the detailed lesson So important to have the right basics. Keep it coming.
@Sue Kim that's right! Good basics are key. What are you looking to improve in your cha Cha?
sue kim 👍👍
WOW! This is the best tutorial to understand the cha cha locks. So happy that you make so many details on what to do with the feet, and hips and other parts of the body. Now, I feel like I can practice actually knowing what to do. And i like views close-up also, from the back. Thank you so much Tytus & LiWen. more videos like this please. :)
Luisame yay! You are welcome. 😊 We are happy that this can help you. Keep practicing and correcting yourself - you'll have it soon! What other steps would you like to have tutorials like that for?
Thanks! I like forward locks, spiral turns, cucaracha, Rumba walks. :))
glad you like it! thanks!
Luisame good suggestions! We'll add to our idea list. 👍🏼🌈
Thank you so much!!
Very good exercise.thanks a lot.
FANTASTIC! The best breakdown of this online... and actually, even better than in person lessons. Amazing gift. Thanks so much Dance insanity
Awesome! @Frenchie LovesM Glad you got so much value out of this! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Frenchie LovesM thank u much!
great lesson Tytus and LiWen. thanks for detailed breakdown. Now, i can practice this for the weekend!
missy T: you're so welcome! Practice away! anything else you're working on that you'd like to see more videos of?
awesome, glad to help!
really good!
Thanks Victoria! What styles of dancing do you do?
glad u like it, thanks!
Exactly the move I was looking to work on next! The locks are such cool looking moves; cha cha has quickly become my favorite dance in the month-'n'-a-bit since I discovered you guys. I'm really looking forward to eventually getting at the level where I can be creative and make up some moves of my own. I'm definitely inspired by the "5 ways" videos that you guys do; it's so awesome to see the standard versions of moves get a new twist
awesome! yeah Cha Cha is my favorite too, shhh, don't tell anyone, lol!
cdmnumber3fan Right on! Did we read your mind?! 😉 Cha Cha music is the bomb! When you wanna take a break from practicing these locks, just mix it up with some of our 5 way moves... Can keep it challenging and fun. 👍🏼 Any questions on this tutorial?
I also just learned that Cha Cha "figure 8 with your feet" move on your channel. Luckily, it came very easily to me, so that has pretty much solidified cha cha as my favorite lol hard not to love what feels most natural :)
Definitely read my mind! Apart from the obvious directional change, what are some other ways that the front and back locks differ from each other?
cdmnumber3fan what a natural! 😉 gotta take advantage of that. 💪🏼 It's a good feedback loop to be in!
好.VERY GOOD.
thank you!
Amazing
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Every person who does Latin or Rhythm dancing to have the "Gold Standard" Walter Laird "Technique of Latin Dancing" A book that sets the standard
Bob Wright Good recommendation!! 🙌🏼 Wally is the MAN.
yup! Walter Laird is the Yoda of dancers!
Wawww how beautiful!!!
Luisa Allman thank u and welcome. Any other techniques/ steps you'd like to see broken down?
thank you!
Encontré ese vídeo por casualidad y estoy segura que ahora Sí voy a aprender a bailar cha cha😊felicitación por la paciencia y la mejor manera de explicar cada pasito 😊👏👏👏👏👏 Just Amazing😊
Luz de Luna Hola! Bienvenidos. Parece que el destino nos unió! 😊😊😊 Cuánto tiempo llevas bailando?
Amazing detail. Love you two!
Thanks @Janet!! 😊😊
thanks Janet!
Excellent demonstrations! Just love you guys. It's challenging to straighten both legs for me for some reason. Any tips on that? pleaase?
@Joan Peacock thanks! Work it slowly and straighten your leg before you put weight on it. Just keep practicing and it will be easier with time. 👍🏼 keep it up.
Love it, guys!! Thank you!
You're welcome! 😊
happy to help!
Thx well done and very helpful
Bob Wright Thank you and welcome to our channel! :))) What styles of dance do you enjoy?
thanks Bob!
Wow! This is exactly what i hv been looking for to fine tune my both rumba n cha cha....more and longer video pls...the zooming on the feets and back video are really helpful....😘😘😘
Also this time teaching is more serious then the others which were funny but i personally really like it this way with less jokes..so that the video focus more on teaching n explaination....keep it up🤗
Syntec Nutraceuticals SEA Thanks for the feedback! Glad you are enjoying this video. 😊 When you say longer videos, do you mean longer than this one or about this length?
@@DanceInsanity Hi, thx for e prompt reply. I meant longer video length...i always find e videos too short n i hunger for more🤣...the video is technical that helps me to dance more like a pro rather than look like stepping instead glides...many of us dance cha cha as like stepping on e floor or no body groove/ sexy hip movements..ur videos help me differentiate from othrs..also pointing out e general mistakes we made.
Syntec Nutraceuticals SEA thanks for clarifying. Haha. I guess it's a fine balance of keeping you hungry for more, but also satisfied at the same time! 😉
Keeping body tone and foot pressure are super duper important to making the locks look good. So keep reviewing and practicing!! 🙌🏼 do u do both American and international styles?
cool! I"m glad to hear you're very serious about being an amazing dancer, and thanks for the feedback on how to make the videos better for your infotainment. its a fine line and we're looking to get the perfect balance. thanks again. Tytus
Sooo good🌹
Thank you 😋 glad it helps
OMG! You made the video! Thank you thank you thank you!!
you are very welcome Yulia! hope it helps, Tytus
This is the most detailed back lock step I could ever find on youtube. That's exactly what I needed. You guys break it down so well. I appreciate it.
yulia you are welcome! 😊 Thank you for the suggestion! Now, just practice, practice and make your Cha Cha back locks super awesome. What else are you working on?
Dance Insanity I am practicing and will continue to do so:) I am learning my first international cha cha routine in my group class. The lock step was the hardest for me so far. I’m also working on my balance and foot strength. Oh! I struggle with arms so much. Hahaha, it’s like I can only focus on one thing at a time. And when my teacher suggests I use arms I get it all wrong! It’s hard for me to implement arm movement in my cha cha😩
awesome! that's were "targeted practice" really helps. focusing on one thing until it becomes a habit and then shifting focus to the next thing. BOOM!
Teacher, i cant get it right for cha cha cant standing firmly
thanks for letting us know! did you try using the "Playback Speed" in the UA-cam settings, and dancing it nice and slow?
@Jen Er, also work on your balance with this exercise video here: ua-cam.com/video/UatrCX0_BCA/v-deo.html Let us know how it goes!
the crossing of sides demo is pretty creative. are you gonna do the forward lock too?
Dance Fan. oops, I mean Alemana thank you! 👍🏼 Will add that to our idea list.. anything in particular about the forward locks that you need help on?
good idea on the forward lock at some point...
thanks for asking! the hip action, when you bring your knees together? I can wait for the video, a pictures worth a thousand hips! lol!
Ahhh... good question. We'll keep that in mind and address that at some point.
every time I practise I learned new things. not only newbie need to learn but also dancer need to exchange technique from each other, internet is a platform, I think this is not good enough, for example dancers may need some kind of seminar based on internet broadcast, facetime broadcast .
frank wu thanks for the feedback. You mean like an interactive seminar?For example "Facebook live" / "UA-cam live" where dancers can ask questions?
that's a great suggestion, thanks!
I'm new to dancing so would just like to know if this is the footwork for both men and women or do men start on a different foot? Thank you
@Anthony Walton welcome! Leader usually starts on left foot. Followers start on right. 👍🏼😊
@@DanceInsanity thanks for the reply. We have just been shown how to do a turn in the corner tonight in the quickstep dance but I cant remember it properly. Do you have a video demonstration?
@Anthony Walton we currently focus on Latin videos on our channel.
I'm thinking augmented reality for this kind of lesson, maybe VR would be too much moving around???
SpookyVR hmmm... Good question. VR during the slower lesson parts maybe good. The thing about Augmented reality is that you can still see yourself and your own movement, whereas in VR, you can't see and self-correct when taking the lesson. So AR may be better for this. 👓
now that would be awesome!
I use the mirror for IFBR. .......Instant Feed Back Reality and the video recorder of my iPhone for LER ...... Later Embarrassing Reality.
lol! yeah maybe our real reality is best, for now at least!
Peter Beyer 😂 very good acronyms. Love it. Can we borrow those?
😘😘😘😘😘❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ wonderful
👌🏼 thanks!! ❤️
@@DanceInsanity You're welcome ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hi Titus an LiWen, I have really bad X shaped legs, how do I get a successful hip action. My knees are in the way😂 any tips?
Hello! You can do our hip action video with legs apart, to give your knees space! Knocked knees means your hips are rotated inwards… have you tried doing hip opening exercises to correct the knee alignments? Much ❤️
@@DanceInsanity hello thank you so much for replying. yes i did try, looks ok but my technique wil not be perfect, it always shows and I am a bit of a perfectionist 🙈
This channel is fantastic. I am new to this. Where can I find the dance shoes for females? Thank you...
This is from Ray Rose - UK brand.
If you want more in depth understanding of what kinds of shoes to get...Check out my dance training program: www.hipsandheels.co
I have a full series about heels and practice shoes because getting a good fit is so important. And of course links to my favorites shoes as well.
Очень много болтовни и мало реальных показов.
You talk too way too much
Luisa Allman thanks for the feedback! 🤭 Which particular part?
Thanks for the feedback! any details on how to make it more efficient is appreciated, thanks! Tytus
What !!!
@@tytusbergstrom I like the flow of the lesson because I am a beginner and I don't know anything but if you already have experience then it might feel slow or repetitive. I recommend not to change it because the repeat is great for learning as you watch, it feels like an actual lesson (since rewinding is annoying if your trying to learn the steps) but maybe add skips like you do with your other videos to appease the more experienced learners:) Thanks so much guys for the lively and detailed commenting in your videos! Its so great to find a well thought out lesson for learning the Latin dance with teachers that have great form and who emphasizes technique!!!! I wish you guys did ballroom too but I'll have to do more googling to find videos as good as yours:) Keep up the Awesome work! PK
P K awesome points, thank u!
