Video Transcript

" This is Salsa Mia on South Beach at Yuka Lounge. You can find us on the web at www.salsamia.com. We’re here to show you the basics of salsa. My name is Susan and this is Alex. Okay, now let’s work on another combination, okay. What we’re going to do right now is we’re going to combine an outside for the turn and then excivina it. So as you can see now, I’m holding her with 2 hands. Men, what are you doing? Outside turn first, but now you’re using 2 hands. 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, and 7, and 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, and forward back. So what we’re going to do is the same thing as an outside turn and an excivina, but now we use 2 hands. Men, remember to always open up in the first 3 counts, and remember to finish your step before you go into the next. So it’s 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, forward, turn, and back to the basics. Girls, remember to always use your shoulders before you do your turns so you can have more speed and balance. "
