"Salsa...Solo!" is a step-by-step instructional
program for beginners. Yesenia Adame teaches a beautiful and diverse
array of salsa moves you can perform solo. Perfect for solo vignettes
within partner dance, or for non-partner performance and social dance
occasions, "Salsa...Solo!" is a treasure chest of graceful step
combinations, nimble turns, and swirls sure to make you look amazing on
the dance floor.
A winner of many top professional salsa competitions, special guest
performer on “Dancing with the Stars,” and a star choreographer for the
hit TV show "Dance Your Ass Off!", Yesenia Adame is passionate about
sharing her love for salsa through her clear and precise instruction
and supportive spirit. Her program offers every woman a chance to learn
and enjoy salsa. So even if you are not on a trajectory toward partner
dancing and simply want to experience the salsa vibe and practice salsa
for fun and fitness on your own, this DVD is for you. Performing
mini-solos with fancy footwork and sophisticated styling is a part of
the salsa tradition, and Yesenia offers you a beautiful exploration of
this solo salsa dance vocabulary and styling.
Yesenia's program consists of 3 sections. Each
introduces a sequence of steps, drills them individually and as a
combination, and then puts them to music. Yesenia and her two guest
instructors, Ashlé and Nicolette, start with basic salsa steps and
gradually add embellishments, variations and shines. In all
instructional and practice sections the video is reversed so that you
can mirror the instructors, and there are special practice sections
where you can follow Yesenia, Ashlé and Nicolette from the back.
Warmup and cooldown sections feature flexibility exercises and drill special salsa techniques such as Cuban hips.
