Watch: Salsa Video Episode 1 : Salsa Titanic Options
And now back to your regularly scheduled programming! After such a long time we are back with a new season of the addicted2salsa.com video dance podcast!
First, we’d like to go on record that we are the first salsa podcast to be shot in High-Definition (hope it shows up on Wikipedia), so you can clearly see our footwork either on your iPhone/iPod or big screen TV. Second, this is our first podcast that we dance On2 as well as On1. Last, but not least - I’d like to introduce you to our new co-host Julie Merrill.
Today we will go over a few options on how to get out of a salsa titanic move. Enjoy!
The song used in the episode is “Philadelphia Mambo” by Los Gatos (originally by Tito Puente)
Watch: Salsa Dancing at Hot Salsa Summer Splash 2007
Well, got a chance to take a break from work and went to the Al Liquid Silver Summer Salsa Splash 2007 event in Palm Springs, California. Met lots of great people, especially Allan from Nuevotec Productions who has more videos from the event.
With that said, most of the comments I got were: “I like your YouTube videos“. And I realized that the way I danced in those videos is wwwaaaaayyyyy to old. So, thanks to Allan, he captured me dancing with the wonderful Jennifer Stein from Majesty In Motion Dance Co. Enjoy!
Well, in this episode of addicted2salsa we take a further look some old salsa classics thanks to Karlos (aka ‘Z’). We provide a little more jazzy selection for your enjoyment, so you can discover a variety of different salsa artists and styles. You might not like all the songs, but hopefully you’ll find some treasures that will make you want to get to know a specific artist a little deeper.
- El Dulcerito Llego by Cuba L.A.
- Cuando Te Vea by Tito Puente
- Noche de Farra by Machito & His Afro-Cubans

After taking the rest of the video and editing it, I’m happy to start off a new series (that hopefully will continue). I had watched a DVD called On2005 A Year in Mamboland, and I decided to use it as inspiration on how to show all the nice video clips of social dancing at the 2007 West Coast Salsa Congress in Los Angeles California. I title this series: A Weekend in Salsa. I like the name because that usually when most of us go out for salsa during the week. Additionally, that is when most of the salsa congress events occur. Now, I have no real background in directing/production/editing so I did my best for my first shot. This is mainly for you guys to enjoy the dancing that goes on a salsa congresses during the night events. Again, please enjoy!
