After such a long hiatus, we are back! We have received your emails requesting a more longer beginner lesson, so here you have it. In this episode we review the basic front-and-back salsa step (different angles), the side-to-side break, the right turn and partnering. Hopefully this helps many of you get started in salsa dancing!

    oh cmon.. this is a video for beginners.. if you try to tell a beginner about weight transfer on 4 and 8 they're gonna be as lost as a mole on a black womans ass.. i think the explanation has to be simple.. once they get it you change it.. and yeah feet dont come together man... but then again.. its just for beginners..

  • So as not to be ...

    So as not to be entirely unconstructive, I think one of the nicest explanations of the basic step can be found on Edie (the Salsa Freak)'s latest DVD series, specifically her "Salsa Syllabus 101-103" disc. It's not perfect but probably as good as you're going to get.

  • I can SO not be ...

    I can SO not be bothered to get into a flame war with a bunch of ppl who are just learning, so insult me all you want. The 4th and 8th beats are not pauses, they are used for a weight transfer. Anyone who tells you beat 4 is a pause either does not understand salsa or needs to review their didactic methods.I get that the tradition in some places is to bring the feet together on 3, I just think it looks bad.The Cuban motion by the gentleman is poor or non-existent, so I stand by that comment too.

  • This is possibly ...

    This is possibly the worst demonstration of the basic step that I've ever seen. Firstly he is not passing the stationary foot with his moving foot on 3 and 7, but worst of all, he is making the "freezing on 4 (and 8)" error. Absolutely horrible, stiff, and ugly... Apart from that, this guy's Cuban motion S**ks donkey balls.

  • The 4 and the 8 are ...

    The 4 and the 8 are pauses. So the stepping counts are 1,2,3 .. (4 is a pause)..5,6,7.. (8 pause).

    1,3,5,7 are the hits of the cowbell
    2 and 6 are the hits of the tumbao or conga.
