Salsa is about passion, about feeling. But I guess this video also goes towards life. Learn how to live life solo and when you do get a partner you're hitting the ground running. Again amazing video.

I liked the sequence of basics from 1:55 to 2:15... it really shows how many variations of basics are possible. For beginners and even intermediate dancers, working in multiple directions like that, instead of straight back & forth all the time, will greatly improve awareness in your feet. Also, I didn’t have a partner when I was learning so I practiced by shadow dancing all the time. Do it with your own counting, then do it with music to ensure you can execute the footwork and moves on time. You’ll improve so much faster.

If there is anyone still having doubts, I'd like to offer my experience. After the first three months of the lockdowns this year, many fellow dancers of mine were worried. Worried that they have lost it. At the first oppertunity that could dance with a partner, I noticed I had not lost that much. I turned to my teacher and her answer was simple, it was because they trained my basics rigoulously. It means that if your basic is solid, your skill is solid no matter how. An oh, muscle memory allows you to pick up where you left, quicker than you think. So yes, do practice as much as you can.

Hey, I've started dancing lessons with my GF and after watching your vid I noticed, that I feel very hesitant to dance with body movement. I don't want to be rude, but Idk how to word it better, but... I don't want to look gay, but I also don't want to look stiff like a broom. I try find more videos showing more masculine salsa dancing, but it's honestly very hard for me to find my way, because the Salsa teacher is - of course - a woman, who can't help me with that... Do you have any suggestions besides practice, practice, practice in front of a mirror?

I doubt this will help. I've tried this before years ago, and all it did was help me be better at dancing alone. Turns and footwork are irrelevant without intent.

I think you misunderstood my point. Practicing solo to develop your timing, footwork control/balance and your body movement are all fundamentals that will help make your partnerwork so much better. Do those skills alone allow you to do good partnerwork? No. But someone who has solid solo skills will improve at partnerwork much faster than someone who doesn't. If you can't do something on your own first - i.e. the timing and footwork - you can't do it with a partner. Thanks for watching and the discussion! -Robin

Ok. Fair enough

Just started one week ago at this dance school and had three classes. This same school also organizes salsa parties so I thought to go and dance a little. Turns out practically everyone was dancing as if they were in the World Champion League! I asked one girl, she was also a beginner but eventually she wanted to dance with the professionals. I asked another girl who is a fellow student and she said she had to finish her drink first. 5 seconds later she dances with a guy who is spinning and moving her around like crazy. That really hurt. I then came to the conclusion that women want to dance with a man who has experience. It was all there in front of my eyes. They didn't care about me at all. So I guess I met the 5% who doesn't care about the connection at all and only the moves. I now find it very hard to believe that dancing is about connection. Moves are always impressive 😑
