    Hi Vouser, you are …
    Hi Vouser, you are correct in what you say about the Salsa MUSICAL Rhythm being 4/4. However in Salsa DANCE you only take 3 steps in every 4 count, on beats 1,2 and 3, pausing on 4 then stepping on 5,6,7 and pausing on 8. Therefore we only count the beats on which steps are taken, thus 123, 567 count. You will notice that in the counting there is a pause on 4 and 8. 123pause567pause and repeat. Hope this helps.

    Dear friends, the Salsa Rhythm is 4/4. This is how it sounds when you listen to any Salsa music. Check it out on wikipedia. So, when you dance, you have to count: 1234, 1234, 1234. You count 123567, it makes it 6/8. Something is wrong. If you dance to Salsa music, you’ll be out of rhythm. Could someone comment on this issue, please? Thanks.

    Hi Paul and Nina,

    Hi Paul and Nina,
    I am getting married in April with my Mexican boyfriend. As you know, Mexicans are really a dancing nation. Add to this the fact that I had a life time trauma , not being able to dance. Horrible.
    I almost gave up the idea I would ever dance in my life, when my boyfriend found your videos and we learned your very beginner class, your second and third class and it is enough to join the dancers.
    Thanks to you, we danced yesterday our first salsa!Thank you!!!!!
