Our Footwork/Shines
class will break down and teach you how to apply fancy
footwork/shine options and combinations to your Salsa
and Mambo dancing!
(Completion of Basic Salsa III , or Basic Mambo level
experience required.)
In Footwork/Shines, you will be introduced
to the timing and breaking of “On 2” dancing,
as well as:
- Salsa to Mambo basic step pattern transition
- Basic Mambo step pattern
- Turns- broken left, basic right
- Men’s/Ladies Styling options
- Common Shines
- Proper weight distribution
- Creating your own footwork combinations
- Music theory
- Dancing to the “Clave”
Why this class is different at Latin Rhythms:
Strictly a footwork class, this class is taught “On
2”. It’s a really common trend to let go
of your partner while dancing Mambo/Salsa, so it’s
really useful to know how to “hold your own”
with some solid Shines. Basic and Intermediate level
Shines are covered during the four weeks. This class
resembles somewhat of an aerobic class, in that all
the fancy footwork combinations and choreography will
more than likely get you sweating!
