In this episode of Addicted2Salsa salsa dance video lessons, we will show you how to perform a basic salsa windmill combination into what we call the "hourglass copa". The Windmill is very similar to other moves you have done that require an cross-body lead with an outside turn, except this is just a variation in styling of that basic move.

The hourglass copa is based off of basic copa move (a.k.a in-and-out), except that the lead requires the use of two points of contact on the ladies' shoulder blades.At the end, Julie will break down some basic ladies' styling techniques when performing this move. Finally having a woman's voice in the video is refreshing!
