In this video, we spoke about the first building block of salsa dancing, the basic step.

Here are 3 general points of the salsa basics.

1. The music is composed of eight musical beats. 1-2-3 (on the 4 we do a small stop) 5-6-7 ( on the 8 we do another stop)

2. The leader stars by stepping forward with his left foot, while the follower starts by stepping back with her right foot.

3. The basic can be done in either open (holding hands) or closed position.

Salsa is is a great fun activity. Alain and Cheryl from Dance Conmigo hope that you will join us for all our other level 1, level 2 and level 3 videos.

If you live in the Montreal (Canada) area, consider coming to our dance classes or our coming to our salsa party the first Saturday of every month. Write us an email for more information.
