Salsa Musicality

Rhythm · Structure · Feeling

Anyone who truly wants to dance Salsa must first learn to listen. I teach dancers the music — so they can understand themselves better, overcome blocks and dance at a new level.

What Is Salsa Musicality?

All the musicians I know don’t necessarily dance — but all dancers must hear the music. True musical understanding changes everything: how you move, how you respond to your partner, how you feel in the room.

• Clave & Rhythm — The foundation of every Salsa, finally truly understood.
• Music Structure — Coro, Montuno, Mambo, Breaks — you hear what’s coming.
• Feeling & Expression — Feel the character of the music in your body and express it.
