And one and two, tap, three and four, tap, five and six. Let's try at this angle. One and two, tap, three and four, tap, five and six. Let's try this angle, one and two, tap, three and four, tap, five and six. Another thing I want to tell you as a beginning Salsa student, there is a rhythm keeper called the clave and the clave is going like this. Let's try it, one and two and three and four and five and six. Don't worry about the clap. One and two and three and four and five and six. Let's try it slowly ready, without the clave, one and two and three and four and five and six."
