Want more Musicality?

If you haven’t already looked at our [intlink id="2047" type="post"]review of the DC Salsa Congress 2009[/intlink], then please do so. We took a class with Betto Herrera of Mambo Dinamico and it was awesome. This is an excerpt from his Musicality in Open Footwork Workshop. Notice how he implements the polyrhythms in his footwork. We recommend you practice some of it. Enjoy!
