" Hi I'm Kelly Anne on behalf of Expert Village Steeve and I we will be demonstrating merengue. Merengue is one of the simpler dances that is why I recommend beginners to start with that dance. It is very easy to count 1,2,3,4 and some of the variations are in place say for 8 counts we have 1,2,34,5,6,7,8 also called marking time. So you want to catch up to the beat of the music and listen for the time fall and then rotating for 8 counts 1,2,34,5,6,7,8. we were able to do a half of rotation in 8 counts. Thank you for viewing our merengue demonstration on Expert Village I'm Kelly Anne and I'm Steeve Jean Louis from Star Ballroom Dance Studio.
