Learn to Salsa Dance : The Double Lock Dance Move

Posted on Friday in learn latin dancing | by

So, another funny combo name. DPS stands for ‘Department of Public Safety’. I got arrested one time at Iowa State University for carrying a door down the street (oops!), and the way they lock your arms is the same way you do it to the follow. The reason for this name is because its a variation on both creating a wrap with the lady, but also having both arms in a kind of hammerlock position.

This salsa combo is kind of tricky to perform, so practice it various times at home to get the timing down: especially the mechanics of moving around the lady and moving their arm down (so you don’t break it).

    I finally figured out what bothers me about this video.. they don’t even look at each other! Salsa is supposed to be a very sensual dance yet these two barely make eye contract!!!
    Other than that, good instructional video..
