Improving the Salsa Dance Basic Step for Beginners

Given today is addicted2salsa's 4th birthday, it is time for a new salsa dance video. There have been several salsa dance videos of patterns and steps over the years, however, I wanted to address a few fundamentals that sometimes are not addressed in some salsa dance classes. Hopefully, for some of our beginner dancers, this video will make your basic step look and feel more comfortable at the club. For our fans looking for something more complicated, don't worry - it is on its way.
