How Do You Learn To Salsa Dance Basic Steps

This seems a simple question but as with all things in life it is not all that simple. Learning to Salsa dance is personal journey where one path is great for a person it may be completely wrong for someone else. So how do you learn to salsa?

In the article I hope to give you some direction and guidance as to how you can learn to salsa. This is taken from my own personal experience learning to dance salsa over the last 3+ years.

So what are the options you have when looking to learn how to dance salsa?

• Weekly classes
• DVD or Video course
• Weekend Crash course
• Dance holiday
• Books

Weekly classes: These are, in my option, the best way for budding Salsaeros to learn how to dance. When choosing a weekly class you must make sure that:

• They are progressive - build on what you have learnt each week
• You like the Teacher - not all Salsa teachers teach alike and it’s a personal thing. Remember it’s your money so get a teacher you like as you will learn much quicker.
• It’s at the right level for you and the right style of Salsa.

There are other things you need to consider but these are the basics. Going to a weekly class and dancing with different partners will enable you to progress quickly.DVD & Videos are great if you have some experience of Salsa dancing. The Vast majority assume a basic understanding of Salsa dancing. To be honest even the best DVD is no substitute to being in a class with the teacher right in front of you.

So if you are looking to supplement your learning this is where DVD & Videos can and do help.

Weekend crash courses are great at teaching you the mechanics of Salsa dancing, the moves and turns etc. What you don’t get is the feel or passion for the dance. This is not the fault of the teachers but a result of them trying to put so much in to two days.

These crash courses squeeze 10 weeks learning in to 6 to 8 hours of lessons. On top of this you will not be able to remember what you have learnt due to information overload and tiredness.

The big benefit of these types of events is the social dancing in the evenings. Here you can try out the moves you have learned. Dancing Salsa socially is the best way of perfecting your own Salsa style.

Once again these courses are great for building on your weekly classes.

Dance holidays, these are a super way of learning to dance Salsa. You get lessons often from teachers who have grown up with the dance, especially in Cuba. You also get the real feel of the dance and its passion.

There is also often the chance to go out and dance in the Salsa clubs where you are; there is nothing like experiencing salsa in the clubs and dancing with locals who seem to dance in nirvana like trance they are so into the music.

Books - well actually I don’t think you can learn how to dance Salsa from a book. Personally I would not bother as you will be wasting your money.

So in conclusion the best way to learn is to attend weekly classes; this with going to Salsa clubs or events to dance Salsa socially. I hope this has helped you discover how to lean to dance salsa.

Once well populated in the 1800?s and descending from the Spanish horses that were brought over to North America the Paint horses were once used by American Indians in war as their war horse. This horse is not only a breed however to be deemed a paint horse a horse must be a quarter horse, US thoroughbred, or be from Paint house breeding and one of the horses parents must be registered with the American Paint horse association.

There are a few different types one has scattered coloured patches that often have dark legs or there is the Tobiano in which the head is coloured with the exception of normal white markings, the colored patches are regular, oval or round and instead of being brown the legs are white. However, some coat patterns do show various characteristics of both types.

Other types are Sabino in which there is a little spotting pattern that is characterized by white being high on the legs, belly spots, white markings are also on the face and extend past the horses eyes and have patches of roaning patterns standing alone or on the edges of their white markings. They come in various amounts of colours. The height of the American paint horse is said to be up to 16 hh which makes them the second largest breed in the United States.

They are very intelligent horses which makes them an easy breed to train that are normally used for riding and racing with great athletic and performance abilities with a calm temperament. They are also seen in modern day rodeos. Unfortunately there is a medical issue associated with the horses which is lethal white syndrome some might also carry HYPP and/or HERDA.
