Do you ask yourself one or more of these questions?…

How can I improve my leading and follow?

Why do some of the turn patterns I learned in class don’t work in social dancing?

How can I dance complete sync with my partner to make all the moves look and feel smooth and easy?

How can the instruments help me fix all of the issues from the questions above?

How can I improvise more moves when I dance Salsa in Social Events?

I want to talk about the common issues that happen on the dance floor and more important how to fix them. I’ve been dancing/teaching for more than 14 years and it took me all this time to find out the answer to all the questions myself…

Now I want to share with you my experience and knowledge (which took me years to learn) and explain what helped me the most to improve my dancing and summarize this into a workshop!

If you are asking yourself all of these questions and want to improve your dancing then this will be the perfect workshop for you! Of course, we are going to cover much more than that, as well as answer any questions that you have on your mind.

We encourage you to bring them to the workshop!!!

Workshop Program:

1 Registration
20 minutes to register starting at 6:30pm
(the faster that we register the sooner that we start the workshop)

2 Timing and Musicality
-Introduction to music and understand when to start and continue with the timing thru the whole song.
-How to listen to the conga, piano and cowbell and different ways to interpret them to create a different feeling while you are dancing.
-Learn how these instruments guide you to follow and lead with precision.
-Learn steps that you can incorporate to the music.

Be prepared to have a great and very different experience!

NOTE: You must have the fundamentals of salsa
(must completed Salsa Bootcamp part 1)

LYRICAL-BACHATA : A fusion of dominican traditional bachata with accents of hip hop and belly dance all within the timing of traditional bachata. I refer to it as “The Bachata Art of Story Telling.” In this class we play around with the words and bring them to life, Its a perfect class for non-spanish speaking dancers and non-dancers to learn the lyrics, language, and dance steps that will make you a great bachata dancer. The main focus in this class is bachata fundamentals and dancing to the lyrics. Inspiration for this class comes from the work Sianna and I do with artists such as Luis Miguel del Amargue, Kiko Rodriguez, Andy Andy, and others of the classic bachata style.

To sign up on this workshop please send an email to

info@joelsalsa.com

See you there!
