Become one of the world's top salsa dancers by 2020.
Current roadblock is that I'm just not doing it enough. I get distracted by other interests of mine. I was previously practising 3 times a week (which probably still isn't enough) but lately I'm only going once a week.
- wallflower 16y agoThat's an admirable goal. Why do you want to be that good? Do you want to be a professional? By definition, a professional dancer is one who can teach, perform, and social dance. Please read this article by the Unlikely Salsero: http://www.unlikelysalsero.com/2007/08/magic-of-time-last-one-standing.html http://www.unlikelysalsero.com/2007/08/magic-of-time-last-on... The whole idea of going from canned set routines to dancing to the music is a bit of difficult hack that I'm still working on (but making progress). The hack for that I think is understand the structure of the song - (real-time Fourier analysis of a set of eight measures of 8-beats each..with your feet)
- roel_v 16y agoNot to be cynical, but how are you going to be top of the world in anything practicing only 3 times a week?
- mattm 16y agoYeah, I know. Even three times a week isn't enough. Perhaps it's a goal that isn't really important to me.
