The right turn is the first turn you learn and it sets you up for learning the cross body lead outside turns and multiple spins.
The left turn is the second turn you’ll learn, so you can turn both ways. This sets you up for cross body lead inside turns. Check out 7 Salsa Inside Turn Variationsfor a perfect example of how everything is built on fundamentals.
The cross body lead is the foundation or essence of this linear style of salsa. The lead gets off the follow’s line of dance, giving them a clear path to cross in front and arrive at the other side, to switch places.
All three names are interchangeable. When the leader stops or blocks the follow’s movement and sends them back in the direction they came it’s called a block or check. When you do it during a cross body lead it’s also called a hesitation. You’ll use this concept a ton as you advance, to keep things interesting and surprise the follow.
The New York walk is a variation of the cross body lead where the follow pivots to the right, instead of the left, to finish the move.
The change of place or what is often called “Enchufa” in Cuban salsa, is the simplest way for the lead and follow to switch positions. There’s lots of fun variations you can do using different handholds. It’s a very common move to use in Cuban and Colombian styles of salsa.
