RE: Dancing is pretty gay

in #education7 years ago

I am from Belgium and its kind of the same way. Personally I have always admired people who can dance (i used to have no rithm whatsoever but have managed to train it a bit over time)
And I have learnt not to care what other people think of me so I just go out and enjoy myself.
Even though im not gay i wish i would be able to dance the salsa or batchata but i cannot even hear the difference so its hard

Sort:  

@felander I'd recommend you to listen to Bachata and Salsa playlists on YouTube. Something like this:



And try and pick out each individual instrument one by one. Bachata and Salsa have a different combination of instruments, so when you've listened to many Salsa/Bachata songs and picked out the individual instruments, you know which ones are typical for each type of dance.
This then also helps you with the rhythm, because when you can pick out individual instruments, you can easily hear the beat of each of them (eg. the clave in Salsa with a 2-3-5-6,5-8 beat). That way you can find the 1 on which to start. Just like finding a needle in a haystack; Separate the stack into much smaller stacks, otherwise it's way too overwhelming. Hope that helps ;)

ah cool, i never thought to do it this way, this is really helpful
i will put some playlists in the car on the way to work, on top it will help me arrive happy to work

Glad to help :)

I have actually danced Bachata in Belgium, in a bar in Brussels a few years ago with my wife. She has a lot more skill than I but I enjoy myself so she will dance with me still :)
