Description
This course was designed by a salsa dancer for salsa dancers so you know that I have experienced every struggle you are having right now, from understanding the music, making the difference between instruments and of course the big one for all beginners: when is count 1 starting.
Even if you dance Salsa on2 this course will still be helpful because the instruments are the same and who knows count 1 it's very easy to use count 2 as well.
Here you will find the following sections and lectures:
Section 1: Why am I qualified to teach this course? What is Salsa Music?
Section 2: Learn about instruments used in Salsa music. Clave. Cowbell. Congas. Piano. Bass. Timbales. Guiro. Bongos. Maracas.
Section 3: Structure of a Salsa Song. How is the song created. When are new instruments introduced. When is count 1 starting and the difference between count 1 and the other counts.
Section 4: Analyse popular salsa songs.
Section 5: Best advise I ever got.
I am confident that all these lectures will help you understand Salsa music more than you do right now, please feel free to ask me any questions, as we are all different people maybe you will have a new issue that I haven't discussed here.
Viva la Salsa!

I have started Salsa exactly like you, learning basic steps and easy moves but I found myself always wanting more and more.
This led me to train with some of the best salsa dancers and teachers in the world, most of them world champions and highly respected in this field.
To mention a few names: Oliver Pineda, Leon Rose, Johnny Vazquez, Fernando Sosa and so many others.
I started Latin Love dance school in 2013 and in this time we opened branches in 3 different countries: Romania, Egypt and UK.
In 2019 I got the biggest challenge, to compete at the World Salsa Championship in Puebla City, Mexico in the Semi Pro division where I was able to take the 5th place.
Music is very important and even at this stage I listen to Salsa every day and discover new things and I want to share them with you because the better we connect with the music the more we will enjoy.
