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.
