On behalf of expertvillage.com, my name is Susan and this is Alex. We’re here at Yuka Lounge with Salsa Mia on South Beach, and we’re here to teach you advanced salsa. Alright, now we’re going to work on a step that’s called the hands or las manos. We’re going to start with a basic turn for the girl holding right to right and we grab the left arm. We’re going to go 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7. Okay, now this is really nice. If you want to have some fun with your dancing you would do this. Okay, so we do 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7. When you get here, you’re going to snap her hands 4 times. 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7. Men, what you do while you’re doing that is nothing else than your basic. Same thing for the ladies. 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7.
