And now something for the ladies! This salsa dance video will provide the ladies a few styling tricks when social dancing with a good lead. Jocelyn will show the ladies how to take advantage of specific dance cues from your lead in order to perform clean salsa styling. Using this in your social dancing will help you enjoy playing with the instruments in a song much more enjoyable.

As a note to leads, you do not have to fill in an entire song of back-to-back patterns. Always remember to leave some room for the ladies to style and enjoy the salsa song.

Build the structure first, then add styling. The styling layer should make the move look more musical, not make the timing harder to follow.

In real dancing, styling should support the partnership and the music. Use the cleanest moments from the lesson and keep them proportional to the space you have.
