@@wheelie6424 and 8 are a 'pauze count'. It's a short moment when you do 'nothing'. The 4 and 8 are great - as opposite to movements on 123 and 567. Later you can can emphasize on 1 and 5 after that short moment. It's all about balance between action and rest. Like the rest of life. 🥰
I had my first salsa class last night and i was TERRIBLE 😂 I came here so i can practice at home. I was making ALL of the mistakes you mentioned. Thanks a lot, great video!
I'm not sure why I'm trying to learn Salsa, I don't have anyone to dance with... guess I'll have to stick to zumba. BUT in that miracle of a chance I meet a single guy, that knows how I'll be ready!
I love to dance but my feet never listen to my brain to walk properly. The other videos were too fast for me to follow. Just with your video, I took the right step today. Thank you very much
i have tried several videos on youtube . almost alll english tutorials failed to teach basic steps . either they are focusing on counts or only on styling . i failed miserbaly to undersatnd basic steps . however some other language instructors are quite good in their method but i couldnt understand langauge . this however is quite good for absolute beginners like me . thanks you
You explain this so well! I was always confused as to what to do with my hands and body. As a total beginner, other beginner videos that I've watched, has me soooooooo confused! The instructors always do the videos at a pro level. Having said that, it makes me feel like my body and feet are total opposites and without any fluency. But with your video, I could clearly understand and see what to do exactly! Thank you so much!!!
HI, thank you. I take that as a huge compliment I guess ;-). I had a very hard time to learn how to dance myself, so I always try to explain things as basic as possible. If you like this.... then you will love what you will find on our platform. salsaventura.tv/get-life-time-access
What I like about this channel is your music is synced to the dance. Most of the other salsa tutorials overdub music but it's out of rhythm with the dance and makes for a more difficult lesson. So, 👍 great job
Oh MY GOSH!!! I have been trying to master this basic dance all of my life!!! I have dyslexia and until today I just humiliated myself 🙈😄👠 Thank you forever 🎉❤💋
I'm missing an explanation for the hip-movement. How do dancers make move their hips? Especially the salseras ;). Otherwise, it's a very nicely structured course. I wish I had an instructor like you at the beginning of my salsa journey. I'm a fan of your Martix.
why does something that looks so simple, is so difficult to execute ?! I went to a dancing club last night, my first lesson, total disaster. even with personal help from two instructors, could not bring my feet to do these simple moves. even a wood plank could dance better than me. then again, surely there are other things in life, that I can build my confidence on...
@@jorgechavez8774samee my whole family dances salsa and we’re colombian… being the only one who doesnt dance is the worst 😭 regret not participating when dancing now I gotta fend for myself but we got this!! 😂
Well my story, all my Co workers are of Spanish and haitian decent. And they're having to much fun at work dancing to salsa music and I'm extremely jealous 😂😂😂😂. Now I'm here trying to learn, guess who will be joining the party in due time lol
I'm a gringo Papi with 3 Latin children who won't take the time to teach me salsa, Thank you, Sir Rivera Now my Grandson doesn't speak English so I guess I will be on youtube learning Spanish, While I'm Salsaing, LoL Stay safe
Thank you so much you guys are amazingly good teachers. I’ve checked out several videos but I absolutely love the way you teach. The way she is facing away from us and you the opposite- thank you that’s genius. I feel this may be possible to learn how to dance salsa ( dream of mine ) lol.... now with Covid and staying home I can do something positive ❤️
Dari dulu klo olahraga senam aerobic, zumba, taebo. Klo skrg lg pengen salsa/latin dance utk basic dulu aja, tp harus tunggu sembuh dari sakit pencernaan ini >.
Helloooo there and thank you so much for your Great tutorial from all angels and so well explained step by step. I subscribed right away. Thank you again.🌺
@@TammyTravelsTheWorld Great!! we're about to celebrate our first year anniversary and already talking about getting married !!!! I guess I really wowed him with the moves!!!!
You are great teacher. And brialliant idea to show back. Before your video i tried many videos but i cant do the figures. They were sooo hard to understand. Thanks from İstanbul Türkiye.
Yes, there is a pause. You step on 1, 2, 3. Pause 4. Step 5, 6, 7. Pause 8. I believe this is called "on 1" salsa and there is another called "on 2" where you step on 2, 3, 4 and 6, 7, 8.
On this song at the end jt was easy too find the lead beat but is there a video or tips on how to stay on beat with music? With some songs its hard to hear the main beat to step to
What would life be without UA-cam
It was terrible!

us reading wikihow, I guess... 😂😂😂
We would have to goto salsa clubs and actually talked to people to learn salsa.
A more beautiful place!
Thank you for starting at a VERY BASIC level !!!!! some of us are slow learners : )
I was also a slow learner at the start - it is very important as teachers to create small baby steps for the students to get better and move forwards!
do you continue to practice?
*Right.... Lord knows I am. 😁😁😁* Sharon in SC* Sharon in SC
I hear you on that 😂
Exactly! It's funny how many of these "beginner videos" start at the 2nd or 3rd level, leaving out the basic shown in this video>
Now THIS is an amazing teacher. Clear, basic, and takes his time to clarify all steps. Thank you!!
Just wonderful
*Amen & AMEN!!! 💃💃💃* Sharon in SC
Umm this might seem like a silly question, but, what happened to 4? Why not 1,2,3 - 4,5,6? Why does he count 1,2,3-5,6,7?

Hey who else came here just to try to learn how to dance for there mom? I want to surprise her with becoming really good at dancing salsa.
Mine isn't Latina and she's afraid I will get too many girlfriends if I dance salsa.
loser
That's very sweet! You're mom is lucky!

I havent danced salsa in years and you never forget! Great to refresh my brain again and fun !
I love to dance but my feet never listen to my brain to walk properly. The other videos were too fast for me to follow. Just with your video, I took the right step today. Thank you very much
Happy new year Gema Rosa I feel The same!
My goal for 2023 to learn to salsa. Just curious after one year are you still dancing?

Oh thank you so much, I always felt I had 2 left feet. I love how your beginner videos take it slow! I want to get the basics down before I go on!
When your crush loves latin dances and you don’t even know how to stand up correctly
Haha i just started having bachata and salsa classes for a similar reason. 😂
You are right lol

Saludos maestros. Grandiosa lección.
You’re awesome - I always did to a 6 count when learning.

Couldn't have been more clearer😃
Thank u for this. U r an amazing teacher
Thanks for your videos Salsaventura! This should be the first video for Salsa breakdown.
Wow. This is so simple and yet I feel and look like a fool trying to get it
Hey guys, if you live in Vancouver Canada....just coming to downtown Robson Square, there are some Salsa Sunday thru out the summer

Am a latino dude who does not know how to dance, that is changing!
Helloooo there and thank you so much for your Great tutorial from all angels and so well explained step by step. I subscribed right away. Thank you again.🌺
The best i found! Thanks very nice!
Thank you!
Asking shorty to be the one to give us the back shot is calculated as a mug bruh. Much appreciated
Just beginning... good explanation
Going on a third date salsa dancing tonight and I’m stressin lol thanks UA-cam
How did the date go?
@@TammyTravelsTheWorld Great!! we're about to celebrate our first year anniversary and already talking about getting married !!!! I guess I really wowed him with the moves!!!!
I struggled with the whole thing until I saw this and how the stepping with the foot was the key
Excellent instructor!
You are great teacher. And brialliant idea to show back. Before your video i tried many videos but i cant do the figures. They were sooo hard to understand. Thanks from İstanbul Türkiye.
I love this and I enjoy all your dance practice
Thank you for making this vid, very precise and clear ♥️
Oh yeah! This much better explained. Thank you so much! I can now.. kinda do the basic steps 😁
Just learned to do it!! Thank you very much!!
That was so clear!! Thank you for making this! :D
LOVE YOUR CONTENT !!!!
Thank you for the wonderful videos. Could you tell me what style of salsa you demonstrate in your lessons? Happy New Year!
Happy New Year!! LA style on 1.
great teacher for my first lesson!
I appreciate the different perspectives.
Excellent stuff bro
Excellent beginner lesson!
Thank so much for teache clear and easy way
i believe i spotted a fellow Dutchie! i recognize the accent :D
Very helpfull to see the different angles and to take super small steps.
Hello
wonderful I believe now I Could salsa Thanks
That is great. It all starts with the first steps.
Thank you very much! It's very clear. My only question is when you count 1,2,3 then 5,6,7 why number 4 is omitted? Is that means there is a pause?
Yes, there is a pause. You step on 1, 2, 3. Pause 4. Step 5, 6, 7. Pause 8. I believe this is called "on 1" salsa and there is another called "on 2" where you step on 2, 3, 4 and 6, 7, 8.
*Great instructions. Love this!!! 💃💃💃* Sharon in SC
I am also going to ask Vanessa to turn around.
😂😂
Mvp
