The Essential Eight
So you want to learn salsa but your not sure where to start. Let me introduce you to the essential eight. They are the first eight moves I teach all my students. The reason why I chose these eight moves is because they form the foundation for higher level dancing. It usually only takes about 3 to 4 classes to learn and I recommend that the beginner learn these moves in the sequence shown below.
1. The Basic Step
2. She Turns, He Turns, She Turns
3. Cross Body Lead
4. Cross Body Lead Inside Turn
5. Cross Body 360
6. Backspot Turn AKA Walk Around
7. Half Backspot Turn
