How to Dance New York style Salsa

In this video, Cesar and Sheena teach us how to dance New York style salsa. Your basic step is going to consist of 8 different counts, but you are only stepping on 6 of those counts. On your non-stepping counts, you are traveling instead of stepping. It's important to count with the music and count your numbers while you are doing this so you are performing the steps correctly. When dancing, always remember that you have a partner and you need to be cautious of their body around you. Know where you are moving and keep your posture straight so you don't hit the other person you're dancing with! Keep practicing, and with time you will have it down perfectly.
