"On behalf of expertvillage.com, my name is Susan and this is Alex. We’re here at Yuka Lounge with Salsa Mia on South Beach, and we’re here to teach you advanced salsa. Now we’re going to work on an easy step, but it’s really nice and involves a turn for the girl and the men. You’re always going to be doing one or the other. Okay. Now, the name of this step is called the finger, or el dedo as we say in Miami. All we’re going to do is a basic turn, but we’re going to do it right to right. You’re going to go 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, back walk, round it for the men, backwards for the girls, men inside turn and cross body lead. Now, the trick about this step is the girl always goes first, okay. We’re going to go 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, and 7. Men, make sure when you do this you always keep your eye on the girl. Okay. 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, and 7. Girls, when you see the men turning you can do a roll with your body. Just shake it a little."
