Salsa Dancing at the Los Angeles Salsa Congress 2007

After taking the rest of the video and editing it, I am happy to start off a new series (that hopefully will continue). I had watched a DVD called "2005 A Year in Mamboland", and I decided to use it as inspiration on how to show all the nice video clips of social dancing at the 2007 West Coast Salsa Congress in Los Angeles California.

I title this series: A Weekend in Salsa. I like the name because that usually when most of us go out for salsa during the week. Additionally, that is when most of the salsa congress events occur. Now, I have no real background in directing/production/editing so I did my best for my first shot. This is mainly for you guys to enjoy the dancing that goes on a salsa congresses during the night events. Again, please enjoy!

Practice tip

Practice the move in sections and keep the lead-follow communication simple and readable. Once the transition points feel obvious, it becomes much easier to use the pattern naturally on a crowded social floor.

Why this helps on the social floor

Start by using only one part of the lesson in social dancing, then expand it once the move feels dependable.
