Salsa: Cuddle

Cuddle is a position when partners stand side by side. One can get to and out of this position in many ways. One example is the move Kentucky that we discussed couple of days ago. Some other variation that already featured on the dancetuts website are cuddle left turn, whip turn into cuddle and cuddle tunnel.

The video from Johnny Griffith (gottaswing5678 on YouTube) has several salsa moves for beginners, including a couple with a cuddle

Salsa: Kentucky

The move called Kentucky starts similar to enchufla, but the leader stops the follower at the hip then at the shoulder and exits by making a step behind to turn around to return to initial position. The video below illustrates the move very well



The video is filmed by Melendrez Dance Studios (latinastaire on YouTube). They are based in Florida and give lessons in many social dances.
