    Tags: Como se dice, Spanish Translation

    Though I am a proud Spanish speaker, it is unfortunately my second language and some of the more unusual words get the best of my Google translator and me.

    The corus in El Cantante “Hoy te dedico mis mejores pregones” the word pregones could use some refining in my vocabulary.

    I have seen “cries” as the direct translation. I take the”s” off and the translation gets a bit more reasonable with “preaches.”

    My guess, from understanding the rest of the lyrics is that the meaning is closer to “sermon” or “lamentations.”

    Someone set me straight =]

    Attitude Drives Behavior

    Attitudes drive behavior. Your body language is a result of your mental attitude. By choosing your attitude you get in that mood and send out a message that everyone understands, consciously or unconsciously.

    Besides learning the moves, postures, and steps to a dance, you need to develop ATTITUDE. Attitude is your
    showcase to the world. Wether it’s an interview for a job, declaring your case (in court), walking into a room full of strangers, or stepping on to an empty dance floor. When you have attitude you are in control, you look and behave like an expert. Basically you know what you’re doing, and you’re going to do it your way.

    This is one of the techniques from ‘Dancing with the Stars’ taught to the beginners. Before you can look good, you have to ACT good, before you can act good you have to THINK good, before you can think good you have to have ATTITUDE.

    Got Attitude ?

      Are you ready?

    I’ve been doing Salsa for about a year now.  I’ve been going to clubs on average once a week, maybe as much as 3 times.  I’m a member of the local Salsa Dance Performance team, but I can’t social dance well at all.  I’ve been studying the videos shown here, but it’s hard to practice alone.  I don’t have many friends that salsa, and the ones that do are too busy dancing with the pros.  Lately, private instruction and dance studios have been on my mind so that I can finally dance like any other guy.   Of course, I’ve also fallen for a beautiful salsera, but she wants to dance with the pros.   What am I missing here?  Does anyone think the privates and studios are really worth the money?  I’m working part time and I am limited by my budget.  Any other suggestions and tips would be great!   Thanks.
