Welcome to another fun episode of the Salsa Kings LIVE podcast! Join host Andres Fernandez as we go deep into the concept for today’s episode “Double-Edged Sword”

Key Points:

  1. Confidence Matters: Andrew talks about how important it is to have fun on the dance floor. He stresses that having a good time is what really counts. If you’re having fun, you’re already doing it right because that’s the whole objective.
  1. Dance is a Feeling: Learning dance isn’t just about steps; it’s about expressing yourself and being vulnerable. While instructors can teach you the basics, the real magic happens when you let yourself feel the music and express your emotions through dance whilst being vulnerable.
  2. Avoiding Laziness: Andres points out how some people are lazy when dancing, especially in Rueda de Casino. He argues that true dancing comes from feeling the music deeply, not just going through the motions and moving your limbs.
  1. Find Joy in Dancing: Andres encourages everyone to smile and have fun while dancing. Oftentimes nobody on the dance floor is smiling and it just makes you wonder if they’re even having fun. Just like dancing should be enjoyable, life should be too. So why do things you don’t enjoy? Embrace the fun and fulfillment that dancing brings. If it’s not fun, find a way to make it fun.

Quotes:

  • “Just because they’re on the dance floor doesn’t mean they’re doing it right.”
  • “Why do things we don’t enjoy, when we dance?”
  • “We can’t experience what feels good if we’re not willing to experience what feels bad.”
  • “Being vulnerable can be very scary”

Closing Thoughts:

In conclusion, the episode reminds us that by letting ourselves be vulnerable and expressing our emotions on the dance floor, we open ourselves up to new experiences and connections. The only way to truly feel the good is by being willing to feel the bad too and this takes a lot of courage because you have to be vulnerable. Never forget that the objective is having fun and that as long as you are having fun, you are never doing it wrong.
