Explanation and counts of the steps ⬇️

SALSA SIDE STEP ON2
1️⃣ Step with right and close your feet in the centre
2️⃣ Step with left to the side, stay under your body so you can transfer your full weight on the left leg, don't make the step too big
3️⃣ Step the right foot in place
Repeat on the other side
5️⃣ Step with left to close your feet in the centre
6️⃣ Step with right to the side (see pointers above, at count 2)
7️⃣ Step the right foot in place

Do you close your feet in the centre when you danc

Do you close your feet in the centre when you dance salsa on1?

I prefer to step through the centre, i.e. to not close the feet, essentially creating 4 'tiles' to step on instead of 3.
This second way of dancing on1 is less "staccato" and more fluid, creating more flow in your basic.

When you're used to stepping on 4 tiles, with more flow, it'll help you grasp on2 better. You'll see why in later videos.

Questions so far? Ask them below or dm me!

In this series we're going to go through the switch on2 process step-by-step so you'll have no problem picking it up!

On1 dancers, ever wanted to learn to dance On2? Follow this series and learn On2 step by step.

1️⃣2️⃣3️⃣ Pasitos*
5️⃣6️⃣7️⃣8️⃣ Tap with your left foot behind and use that left foot/tap to turn 180°, then tap your left heel forward, tap your left foot behind again and turn so you're facing the front again, tap your left heel forward
1️⃣ Cross your left foot over your right foot a tap
(This is fast! Practice counts 56781 a few times slow and fast to get it)
2️⃣3️⃣ finish half a basic step (left forward, right in place)
5️⃣7️⃣ step out to the left on 5 and simultaneously do a chest roll, do another chest roll on 7
1️⃣2️⃣3️⃣ Cross step behind, step in place, point to the right. Make sure your standing leg is straight on the point.
5️⃣^ step in place on 5 and point to the left, this is syncopated, so "5 and". On this one you're standing leg is bent so there's a clear difference between this and the last step.
7️⃣^ repeat to the other side, step and point on "7 and"
