This one is a little more complicated but the basic fundamentals are the same as the one handed version. The majority of the problems will come with the ladies cross-body lead with the double inside turn. Making this smooth will require staying close to the lady through her turn and keeping her hands in a good relationship to her body.

Also it will be very important for the guy to keep count with his feet during the entire turn pattern so as not to end the turn on the wrong count.

This turn pattern is the more simple form of the “Complicated Turn Patterns.” The two handed turn pattern is the more difficult one. This pattern is best practiced from start to finish without hesitation or pausing. The momentum from the movements makes the ending cross body lead much smoother and easier to lead.

This turn pattern is a very diverse combination of simple moves. This is an intermediate pattern that is 100% modular and can be broken up and reassembled to suit  your needs. Practice this move in sections, not only as as full turn pattern. This move can single handedly take your dancing to the next level.

Practice, practice, practice and leave your comments and questions and let us know what you think!

This turn pattern is a combination men’s half right turn and a lady’s right turn. There are a few factors that will make this move go smoothly but aside from that, this is a fairly simple move to understand. It is very important that the guy keeps his back straight the entire time. It is also very important that the guy does not turn his shoulders too dramatically to avoid hitting the lady with his elbow.

Practice this move very slowly in the beginning to avoid potential injury. After a while this move will come as easy as the basic turns! Keep practicing and be sure to leave your comments and questions and we will be sure to get back to you! Enjoy

This is a really cool men’s turn. It isn’t very hard to learn and it looks really cool. 

A few tips that will help when doing this move.

1) Keep the hand that is behind you back as high up on your back as possible, it will make going under it easier. 
2) Stand Shoulder to shoulder with the girl, facing your partner, your right shoulder should be in front of her right shoulder.
3) End your right turn facing the lady. It is very important to turn far enough to face your partner again.

This is a pretty easy salsa dance move to master, but it does take some practice. It is a normal cross body lead for the lady but added in is a left turn for they men and an added pull with the  body. The move is not all that difficult but it is really fun to do! The most important thing is to stay on top of yourself when turning and out of the girl’s way. Watch the video and let me know what you think. I will offer any clarifications if you need them, just post your questions/ comments below!

Hope you like it and there will me more coming soon!

This is a cool Salsa move that I don’t often see people doing out at the club. Men’s turn patterns are seldom perfected and rearely taught and being that I love to spin and show off (who doesn’t) I decided to amp up the amount of guys turn patterns you have in your arsenal.  

This is a really cool move that I was never taught, I just played around with until it came out, Hint the not having a good name for it! I’m sure there is someone else out there in the salsa world who does this moves but you will for sure get noticed doing it in a club in your city. I explain the counts on1 but i’m sure you can put it to a Mambo if you are so inclined .

Sorry about the background noise and the creaky wood floor, annoying yes but not too distracting. Keep coming back for more videos of beginning, intermediate  and advanced turn patterns videos via youtube!
