Anyone from west la? I just moved here and want to sign up for salsa classes. I know a bit about it, but I'm struggling with salsa on1. So I did some research and found a lot of academies in LA and it's quite overwhelming. Would be great if I could get some recommendations here.
Thank you!
Exactly, this is something more cultural. It's like adding the Venezuelan drum style to salsa. Some movements can be used but I don't think you can dance salsa listening to that musical genre.
I’m not sure where they are from :(
I saw it on social media and thought it was interesting. So, the point of those instructors is to add Afro-Cuban elements to Salsa dance, right?
Lots of instructors promote Cuban salsa classes with this genre of music. Do you think that's right? As a Latina, I have difficulty recognizing this genre as salsa.
Usually, they'll test your level to know which class is right for you.
They might offer you private beginner lessons first so you can learn the basics before joining an intermediate group class.
Some dancers don't mind being recorded; they actually like it and say, "Hey, tag me on IG!"
For me, it would be weird if you recorded me without asking first.
I guess you have to learn to read the vibe from dancers who don't mind being recorded.
