Here is a short salsa dance pattern to get you gives you something different to do after a double handed in-n-out (copa) salsa dance move. After an in-n-out salsa move, you can keep both hands near the follow’s shoulder, and flick the hand into a hammerlock. From there, you can proceed with a simple reverse cross body lead. We called it “Patternito” as a play on the phrase of ‘Short Pattern’ because I ran out of creativity. Enjoy!

Salsa dancing lesson video. This move is called the DPS lock combo because you place the follow’s arms in a similar fashion to the way the ‘Department of Public Safety’ (DPS) places yours if you ever get arrested by them. The reason for this name is because its a variation on both creating a wrap with the lady, but also having both arms in a kind of hammerlock position.
This salsa combo is kind of tricky to perform, so practice it various times at home to get the timing down: especially the mechanics of moving around the lady and moving their arm down (so you don’t break it). http://addicted2salsa.com/videos

So, we sort of rushed this episode out the door… hopefully we will find some time to actually make an episode with some organization behind it.. In this episode of the salsa podcast, we show you how to do some ‘magichands’ drop, a quick hammerlock to a cross-body lead, and then to a copa for the ladies. Again, we will setup a donation system through paypay since we are running out of funds and would like to have better podcasts!

Well, this is a funny one I think. The name of this salsa dance pattern was given by our videographer because every time I taught the salsa dance move, I would make a ‘boop’ sound similar to that one on the radars in submarines.
I usually use this salsa dance move to give me more time to think what salsa dance move I will be doing next. Good to have it in the ’salsa dance arsenal’ of moves.

And now something for the ladies! This salsa dance video will provide the ladies a few styling tricks when social dancing with a good lead. Jocelyn will show the ladies how to take advantage of specific dance cues from your lead in order to perform clean salsa styling. Using this in your social dancing will help you enjoy playing with the instruments in a song much more enjoyable. As a note to leads, you do not have to fill in an entire song of back-to-back patterns. Always remember to leave some room for the ladies to style and enjoy the salsa song.

This salsa dance move is composed of doing a simple hand juggle (which looks like you are doing uppercuts when boxing) in front of the follow, then quickly leading a ladies’ left turn into a basic reverse slingshot. Take your time with the move at first so you don’t injure your partner! Enjoy! For more salsa dance instructional videos, check out http://addicted2salsa.com
