Nice post!

Thanks for posting! I think it nicely illustrates several of the key features of classic PR style mentioned earlier by salsera_alemana and others. Of note are the leader breaking forward On2 (in contrast with ET2), the loose slot, and the simple yet expressive footwork. I think the simplicity...

I'm working on incorporating old school mambo shines into my dancing. I've been watching some cool clips of Mambo D, Jimmy Anton, and Tito Ortos doing some classic moves. Those guys have real saborrrr!

This definition makes sense to me. I have also heard of "afinque" in terms of dancing. For example, to "bailar afincao" means to dance closely or tightly.

I'm not a Salsa professional, and I dance crossbody style. Nonetheless, the video linked below is one of my favorite examples of intricate footwork during partnerwork (2:15 - 2:27 and 2:42 - 2:52). I've must have watched this video dozens of times... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6aYB9MJXydU

In a really crowded dance floor with several couples around us dancing wildly, my dance partner told me, "I feel safe dancing with you."

I really enjoyed the song, too. I agree that Héctor is talking to Mark, but my take on the song is that the police is looking for him because he's a "bolitero", a person that takes bets for an illegal lottery game called "El juego de la bolita" (In Puerto Rico). However, it's possible that my...

Awesome song and nice justification!

Hi Konzy, Below are a few suggestions based on what I found helpful when I started dancing. 1. Dance socially as much as possible. I personally like to dance socially at least 3 hours for every hour of class. This gives me a minimum amount of time to put into practice what I've learned...

I do the same thing! I find that this visualization exercise helps improve the precision of my lead because it forces me to be crystal clear about my movements in relation to my partner's movements and the music, specifically with respect to tempo and changes in clave direction.

That's a great song, indeed. And yes, Celia is the singer.

Ahhhh! My eyes and ears are bleeding.

Thanks! I really enjoyed "No tiene caso". I was particularly impressed by the level of restraint evident in the arrangement; it had an uncluttered, straight-forward groove throughout that really allowed the vocals to shine. The piano and percussion were tight, and the call and response...

Nice track. I also like "A las seis". I'm currently listening to a lot of Roena. Here's a list of a few songs: Oriza eh La hija de la vecina Aquellos que dicen Regaño al corazón
