🕰️ Danzón Time Step Explained (Foundations of Salsa Timing)
In this video, we break down how Danzón was originally danced, not as choreography—but as a living relationship between music, body mechanics, and partner connection.
Inside the lesson you’ll see:• The original Danzón time step and posture• Lead & follow footwork with clear weight transfer
• How timing connects directly to the baqueteo rhythm
• The different musical sections and how the dance changes with them
• Why Danzón is essential for understanding son, mambo, and salsa timing
This is one of those roots that, once you feel it, everything else starts to make sense—especially if you’ve ever struggled with timing, control, or overthinking your steps.
🎥 Watch the video, then reflect on this:What felt different when you saw how the movement matches the music sections?
Drop your thoughts or questions below—this is foundational material, and I’ll be responding in the comments.
