Hi there beautiful trachee. I an sooo exited. I can turn and spin!!!!wawww it took me 2 yesos now I know the secret. Thank you sooooo much . We love you. Now I am following your chachachá uhhhhh
@Luisa Allman I'm excited for ya! Love that you got it now. Spin and turn away... and have lots of fun doing it. Those are my favorite things to do. xxx
Thank you LiWen! I practiced this first thing in the morning:) I think I'm getting a little better with balance and my head spins a little less. Hooray!
Yulia! Hooray indeed! Starting your day with dancing is amazing. 🙌🏼😊 Keeping stillness to then generate speed is key for building your spins. Nice work girlfriend. ✨✨✨ Did u try the 5 step turns?
@@DanceInsanity I did mostly do the 5 step turns! I even tried to add one more spin. I try to start slowly, have speedy turns and end slowly. I have the right idea, just need to keep working on my balance and practice:)
@SuperChickz you're welcome! Yes, it does take more control to do them slowly, but you reap the benefits of finding your center and balance. So, in the long haul, it's better for you. ;) just keep practicing and adjusting.
@Luisame you're welcome. 🌈😊maybe so. But balance is definitely something that can be trained and acquired over time. Just takes specific exercises to get it down. Do u have better balance than others? 😉
As a man, I danced for many years and I enjoy making women turn. Now to help some female beginners, I am learning to turn myself. I managed to do the Salsa cross body turns. However, the spotting business I never get a hang of it.
I also dance Argentine tango, where almost every turn and pivot is is initiated with upper body twist. So I am applying that technique to Salsa cross body turn with good success. However, the idea of turn/spin initiated by upper body’s twist seems to be contrary to the concept of spotting, because you want the head to be the last to turn :). Could you shed some light on this? Thanks.
@Kamila Sithra They work basically the same way, except in samba, you have a bent knee when u finish your side step. IE: side samba walk. Good question. 😊
@Dance Fan. oops, I mean Alemana Good question! You can use the pull-in of your arms to create more speed. It's like figure skating. ;) do you like to spin?
For beginners seeing this video, when on the ball of the feet it is not like on the toes. The heal is barely above the floor to glide above it and does not drag the floor.
Thank you for the video! I am glad that i found your channel. I would like to learn the footwork friday one at a time however youtube doesn't seem to recommend the next epidode for me. Am i doing it wrong or if you haven't put them in the same playlist?

Thanks LiWen. You are my inspiration!
Aww... Thanks Joan. That's very sweet.

way to go Yulia!
@@tytusbergstrom Thank you!
Nice going!! Lucky 7 step turns. Keep practicing and have fun with it.
very good Liwen!
Thank you Victoria! 😊
Thanks for this lesson! It's hard to do the turns slowly... haha.

wise man once said, whatever you can do slow, you can do fast, lol!
@Tytus Bergstrom Are you that wise man? 😜
could be... lol!
merci beaucoup! I like the videos from your channel.
awesome, thanks!
André Autry Thank you and welcome to Dance Insanity! Any fav dances?
@@DanceInsanity love the samba and salsa!
Thank you! I love practicing along with you and learning from you. Do you think some people naturally have better balance than others?
@Luisame you're welcome. 🌈😊maybe so. But balance is definitely something that can be trained and acquired over time. Just takes specific exercises to get it down. Do u have better balance than others? 😉
my opinion is that balance is not natural talent. I really fell over a lot when I started, but got better with practice.
@@DanceInsanity haha. I wish. But I'll work on it. Thanks!
@@tytusbergstrom Thank you! That inspires me to work harder. :)))
oh cool, happy to hear that!
When I grow up, I want to spin like LiWen. 😝
HenryC 😂😂😂Thank you! I'm happy that I inspire you. Practice along with me, and yes, you can.
lol! funny
hey! @HenryC Me too!
maybe don't grow up, but spin it up
@Tytus Bergstrom haha. good idea.
Excellent video, LiWen! Can Tytus turn like you do?
@chance8yes not even close!! Haha. 😉 actually he's a terrific dinner.. oops I mean spinner. 🤣 how are your spins coming along?
lol! yeah, I need a lot of caffeine to keep up

@chance8yes Are you dancing mostly salsa and argentine tango?
Great! Just want I wanted to work on. Does this turn work the same whether it's rumba or samba?
@Kamila Sithra They work basically the same way, except in samba, you have a bent knee when u finish your side step. IE: side samba walk. Good question. 😊
its a great turn for every dance!
@@DanceInsanity Thank you!
Thkq👍
@Lee Bock seng you're welcome :)
thanks! how do you generate speed when the arms go behind the body, like the last spin you did?
@Dance Fan. oops, I mean Alemana Good question! You can use the pull-in of your arms to create more speed. It's like figure skating. ;) do you like to spin?
its an arm wrap, so the arms can go anywhere...
wrap? not to argue, but... i thought th arms are supposed to be centered in front of the body??
good point! i like to think of that for more basic spins, and then use the arms in lots of creative places as you get more advanced
For beginners seeing this video, when on the ball of the feet it is not like on the toes. The heal is barely above the floor to glide above it and does not drag the floor.
TheSeeker2070 Yes. Just lift heel slightly to turn. :)) How are your turns going?
@@DanceInsanity : slow (pun).
@TheSeeker2070 😅 patience...and have fun along the way.
ชอบเก่งมากค่ะ🎉😂
my favorite part is the fast hair
Haha. Nice 🙌🏼

La Troana She is extraordinary! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
How to pick the right shoes to make ur point looks clearly
I have a problem with my shoes, it's on the arch of my shoes. I don't know which is the right one
Are you wearing practice shoes or Latin heels?
@@DanceInsanity latin heels
