Ouch..what does deleted user mean?
Hi everyone. We're new to the community.. my husband purchased dance classes (national chain) in May but I found your site and we have watched a few of your videos it became apparent that your approach to teaching really helped us to better learn at our own pace. We didn't even hesitate to purchase the yearly subscription.. we are so looking forward to enjoying dancing privately and when on a cruise or out in public. Thanks Mary & Terry
Hello Everyone…
I’m so grateful to find this community…and these videos! I’m a ParaDancer…and have been dancing for about a year. My husband is able-bodied…so we are adapting all of these styles. We have our first competition in August…and you have no idea how helpful your videos are in learning what we are trying to emulate!! Thank You!!💃🕺🏽👩🏼🦽➡️
I just contributed $100.00 bucks to your 100 mile run for your sister. U are obviously such a good person and your instruction with M. Megan is the best in the US. thx for all you do. scott roberts
Hey Brian B and Megan! I saw your email, one thing I realized is how sensual Salsa dance can truly be, recently I started with a teacher who was a champion in her country in S America and she really opened my eyes how I was doing it all wrong... From just the simple cross body lead of feeling like im dragging her side to side like abag of groceries, to instead, using my right hand onto her lower back, leading to the other side and sliding my hand from there down her arm back to our connection of the hands.. made a HUGE difference with how I perceived salsa and out in social world... Do you think you guys can dive into this some with how to make salsa more sensual with dance moves with your partner and in the social dance world?
Hello all, did my first demonstration at our studio's party the other day, used some of the foxtrot moves here! Was cool!! Foxtrot btw
Hello everyone! I'd like some advice on which songs to practice foxtrot to.
My fiancé and I are a couple of absolute beginners trying to get the basics down for our wedding next month, but we don't want to practice on the first dance song only - "Knock Me a Kiss" by Tympany Five, performed by Jumpin' Up - for fear of coming to loathe it in the long run. We need some pieces to practice keeping up with the tempo, as my partner has never danced before, and set a simple routine instead of a choreography.
If anyone could be so kind as to give us a few pointers, we'd be most grateful. Happy dancing!
How does everyone feel about acting out the lyrics in WCS or other dances? I think it’s called “miming.” It can certainly be entertaining.
Does anyone else have this pet peeve?
The music from dancers’ videos on TikTok sometimes gets removed for copyright reasons, and sometimes the music is later restored. But the worst part is when the song is replaced by another one, generally one of a small handful of songs (such as “Shivers,” “Ice Ice Baby” or “Cheap Thrills”). I assume they are used because of their more open licensing agreement, if not public domain. Sometimes you’ll even find both the original and altered video versions, posted by different sources.
I don’t know who is doing the song substitutions, but isn’t this disrespectful to the dancers and their videos? Unless they have somehow given permission. Non-dancer viewers who don’t know about this process must notice the dance doesn't necessarily match the song. (Not to mention what they must think of how limited the WCS song playlist is.) Seems it would be more honest to just leave the dances silent with the “This music isn’t available” note, as awful as that is.
