Excellent video explaining the how and the why of proper On2 dancing!
I teach Salsa myself , but thanks to people like you there is still so much to learn. Thanks you for the great lessons ! Youre a great teacher!
Excellent and succinct. Love the conga intro in the beginning.
Thank you for simplifying on 1 vs, on 2 for Conga. Very easy to understand
A wonderful explanation. Thank you for vocalizing the conga drum beat as you moved - that really helped.
Dancing ON2 is a wonderful way to be in the rhythm of the music. I use to dance On1 and now being On2 I feel a better connection dancing on the strong accents of the 2 and the 6.
Dance on people!
it vastly depends on the music. I sometimes end up dancing half the songs at a party on 1 and the other half on 2 :))
Ny2 is technocally on 1 fyi. If you step in 123 567 you dance on 1
Finally!!!!!!!!!! Someone can explain it properly......Thank you much
This beginner is now understanding why sometimes I lose the rhythm. Thank you for the great video.
The valuable teaching completely outshines the crapy camera angle, great video!👍

This is the best counting I have found! Dancing salsa on the 2 by listening to the conga is the easiest way to hear and feel the music. 8& 1, 2, 3, 4& 5, 6, 7, 8& ... Listening for the 8& really helps find the 1. And by including the 8& and the 4& in the count, the beat rolls so you get a better feel for the music and don't just march on the beat, you dance through it. It's a bit tricky at first to count the 4& and 8& and not move your feet but worth the effort when you get it.
Yea, if congas are there in the song and you can hear it
Best video ever! Thank you.
Excellent! @3:37 and @4:21
Great info and your timing CD is excellent!!
Nice video, thanks.
I was reading the comments about salsa and his origins. I see the words mambo, rumba, cha cha, but i didn't see the words: Danzon, Son, Guaracha and Casino who are the origins of what we call salsa todays.The Casino is the original "salsa", that was the ballroom salsa of the 50's in Cuba. The cuban salsa, timba, mambo salsa, or NY style and LA style are only a continuity of the Casino.
Cuban salsa sounds like English soccer. it is simply casino :) "salsa" is a comfortable commercial term born in the States
Thanks man, great video. That helped me a lot, cause I often lose the rythm.
Excellent explanation, thank you! I know how to step in time listening to the base guitar and clave, but didn't actually know how the conga's are involved.
thank you sooooo much i can't thank you enough this helped a lot
great video bro!! thank you
Very clear explanation thanks! But would have been nice to compare it to how most people dance on2 (ie without utilizing the conga rhythm)
Nice video and explanation. It was always my understanding though that second "tun" falls on the 8-and beat, slightly before the 1.
Fantastic.
Great information, thanks.
GREEAATTT!!!
This is actually a really cool clip. My Mambo video is on 2 and (I believe) it totally matches what you're sayin here.
Thank you!!
Where's the part 2 video that is advertised at the end of this one? Was it ever made?
hey raul what's up man I read your book twice it's good information in that book I just wanted to say thankyou It help me a lot in all aspects how to understand the music and feel it .
great and simple. Joe has similar message.
I have a few questions! On 1 is LA style right? So then the 123-567 is the NY on-2 and the 234-678 is the PR on-2? Are those also "Modern Mambo" and "Classic Mambo" but which is which? Or am I totally wrong :P! Thanks, this videos great! Really shows you how to count!
genial
1/ " to this beautiful Afro-Cuban based music" I like the word " Cuban " very much in your comment. This is the first time that I see a Salsa dancer had acknowledged the origin of where Salsa came from, not as some idiots in RUclips several years ago claimed that the Puerto Ricans in N.Y. and L.A. had " invented", He "fucking this" : fucking that " to respond my comments in his post in RUclips ! Once some one said some nasty things to you, you do not forget it easily !
Question:
If I follow the instructions of this video, how to know if the congas “Pa” is a 2 or a 6?
(thats very important to know if to go forward or back)
hi - because the conga only cycles every 4 beats there is no way to get through 8 beats - meaning you''re only counting up to 4
Thanks alot.
I have been learning salsa in the last 2 years. I want to learn Son now. Is the Son Clave on 2/4??
There is nothing more beautiful than the Cuban mambo and Rumba. So continue to have an evolution of the Cuban Mambo, Rumba and Chacha, do not have a revolution by changing the name from Mambo into Salsa, And changing the counting of quick,quick,slow into 234,234, NOT 123,567. Like the Europeans did, EVOLUTION NOT REVOLUTION to Rumba, by using their Ballet techniques ! George Wu, AIA 2012-8-11
2/ And the traditional quick.quick,slow was kept if the dancers doing just that ! Or use the traditional Cuban counting 234,234, even the Puerto Ricans changed the counting into 123,567, but still is danced to the original Latin basic quick,quick, slow ! Unfortunately there is some confusion counting beyond 567 for an average intelligent guy, after twisting the arms several times the Man got confused !
Forget this video! Nobody answers a question!...
Only five days ago, there was a woman asked me to dance, she asked," do you break on 2 or break on 1 ?" What a confusion ! I think it is all the faults caused by the Puerto Ricans in 1990's ,about 30 years after the Cuban crisis. The Salsa promoters tried to make money on the Latin music market, they had to give a new name and a new step to the old 1940's Cuban Mambo ! The climax was around 1995, when the NY born Puerto Rican,Tito Puente,performed in the Linclon Center ! George Wu, AIA 2012-8-9
I can't see the difference between the two on2 steps.
Break on 1 ? Break on 2 ?
2/ when the Mambo was stolen, but the counting system 234,234 was not. The Puerto Ricans "invented" something, they count 123,567 instead. Generally if the dancer is doing the basic quick,quick,slow, there should not be any problem. Because the third step slow still danced ! However, only recently, some Puerto Ricans felt that they had been dancing with no pause ! Now that is a serious problem! So some smart Puerto Ricans came up with this on 2 ! What a confusion! George Wu, AIA 2012-8-9
most people will not dance 234, 678. never heard of it...
dance/perform in NYC and NJ. if you are in the central Jersey area, i'm hosting a free Salsa on the beach event

The ORIGINAL Cuban way to dance is as the following: Man start with the left foot forward, called 2, then the right foot in place, called 3, Left foot to side, called 4 ,1 . Then the right foot backward, called 2. Left foot in place, called 3. Then right foot to side, called 4,1. Just in case you never learned the Cuban Latin dance before,this is a good dancing lesson for you, "thesalsaexpert" ! George Wu, AIA 2012-8-12
What the hell are you talking about? When you said," You like on 1- dance on 1. If you like, dance on 2. " Why on 1 then changed into on 2 ? George Wu, AIA 2012-8-12
Why is there such a confusion? After I spent several years studying the problem, I went to the Cuban Rumba, Chacha, and the Cuban Mambo, I finally discovered the secret that caused the Puerto Ricans going on 1 lessons and on 2 lessons to confuse the instructors himself, subsequently the beginners! But I am not going to tell you the secrets, because it has taken me years of learning and a lot " fucking & mother fuckers " abused comments from the low class Puerto Ricans. George Wu, AIA 2012-8-9
Then why didn't the Americans claim that they had invented " ENGLISH" ? The fact was that a few years ago in RUclips, there were Puerto Ricans claimed that they had " INVENTED' Salsa in New York and L.A. .And forgot the name Mambo completely ! Now, that is stealing, not evolution. Somebody stole something and changed the name into something else. If that is not stealing, What is ?! George Wu, AIA 2012-8-10
Because almost half of "English" is not even English. A similar situation as the one you describe but in language.
1/ Yes, I am very passionate about the Latin music being promoted to China, a country is known to be very conservative about their personal feeling and expression. But since the salsa was "INVENTED" in the 1960's after the Cuban crisis, there was always a controversy among the Latin World, Salsa had stolen Mambo and left the DJ of everywhere to annonunce his music," Mambo/Salsa " every time and every night ! Whose fault is it? Salsa people !
If I never made a sound about the Puerto Ricans had stolen the Cuban Mambo and called it Salsa. People in the future never will know the truth about Mambo was stolen, and Salsa was given a new name for it ! Because the name has been altered after the looting, I cannot agree to the word," EVOLUTION " you used here ! If the Puerto Ricans had kept the same name Mambo, then it is "EVOLUTION" ! George Wu, AIA 2012-8-9
thesalsaexpert : Question: Do you agree that Mambo is 234,678 for quick.quick,slow, so called BREAK ON 2 , when Salsa is 123,567 for quick,quick,slow, so called BREAK ON 1 ? Then where this "Salsa on 2 "came from ? I think you confused yourself and you confused everybody else! Why such a simple Mambo was stolen and changed into so complicated "ON 1, ON 2 " ? George Wu, AIA 2012-8-28
3/ Now, there is a correction ,"ON 2" up-rising among the Salsa people, tried to achieve the beautiful PAUSE that Mambo and Rumba processed ! But the more the Puerto Rican tried to do, "ON 1 ......ON 2 " , the more the Salsa Male dancer is confused, the Lady has a better luck by dancing faster and doing more spins to campourflage the frustration, but the man was left standing doing just the regular equal timing steps ! Boring looking and not even Latin dancing any more ! George Wu, AIA 2012-8-11
the: " So there is nothing sacred about the word Mambo or Salsa" Mambo is the original Cuban dance; and Salsa is a thief stealing Mambo away from the Cuban in 1960s, and renamed it to Salsa ! That is the difference. Mambo is the owner of the dance started by Cubans in 1940s; and Salsa is only a thief in 1960s ! You are telling me there is no difference ? George Wu, AIA 2012-9-20
You said," Who cares if it's called Mambo or Salsa- call it Jumbo if you like..." Then why did you call yourself "thesalsaexpert"? Why didn't you call yourself " theMamboexpert"? It is a typical thief mentality.How do you like I stole your money and celled that is my money. Would you let me to do that to your pocket? And expect you not to make a sound of injustice? You have no moral. You are a thief of Mambo. You do not deserved to be respected. George Wu, AIA 2012-8-10
Samsung just lost $1,05 billion to Apple for the copyright of iphone! I wished there is a patent law preventing Salsa from stealing Mambo from Cuba ! Too bad there is no such a law ! Meanwhile Salsa people creating more confusion to confuse everyone including those so called " instructors" by introducing On 1 then On 2 when Mambo is always BREAK ON 2 ! George Wu, AIA 2012-8-28
I have decided not to help you Salsa people. Although I have already found out the reasons why you have the on 1 and on 2 problems ! because you people have been very nasty to me for several years when I protested that you had stolen the Cuban Mambo and changed the name to Salsa.
